An example launcher to run multiple Cucumber executions in the same JVM.

View this YouTube video for a run through of how it works.

Note that this example is experimental. Please modify to meet your requirements and thoroughy test before using.

Running

Run ./gradlew cucumber

This executes the class CucumberLauncher.java which is responsible for parsing arguments and starting the Cucumber executions.

Arguments

See the cucumber task definition within build.gradle for the list of configurable arguments. All arguments are passed to each Cucumber execution, except for:

• --dirx type arguments (e.g. --dir0 feature1) - these form the final argument passed to Cucumber and determine the number of executions

The provided setup runs two Cucumber executions:

1. --plugin pretty --plugin html:target/cucumber-report.html --glue com.tomgregory.cucumber src/test/resources/features1
2. --plugin pretty --plugin html:target/cucumber-report.html --glue com.tomgregory.cucumber src/test/resources/features2

Use this codebase as an example which you can extend to meet your own requirements.
