Java Heap Space - Out of memory error When I run more than 1300 test cases using serenity with cucumber5

[kreigy1310garg]

Java Heap Space - Out of memory error When I run more than 1300 test cases using serenity with cucumber5. Even I have tried increasing heap space for jenkins to 6144M still issue persists.

I don't know how to get rid of this.

I am doing rest api testing using serenity rest assured using 2.2.5 and 2.2.0 for serenity cucumber5

you could use a profiler maybe.. to check what exactly is worth so much RAM
or try https://serenity-bdd.github.io/theserenitybook/latest/serenity-parallel-batches.html

and the usual answer is "maybe a version conflict"? :)

I am doing rest api testing using serenity rest assured using 2.2.5 and 2.2.0 for serenity cucumber5

any reason you use different versions?

[kreigy1310garg]

These versions are suggested by Serenity GITHUB for cucumber 5. Also I was getting this with cucumber 2 as well . Recently upgraded to cucumber 5.

[globalworming]

ah, ok. sorry, I am not very familiar with the cucumber part of serenity :)

[wakaleo]

I would need a sample project or access to your Jenkins environment (we can do this as part of our commercial support packages) - otherwise it will be hard to diagnose. As @globalworming suggested, I would suggest investigating with a profiler to see what objects and methods are taking the most memory.

Hi @kreigy1310garg @wakaleo , is there any resolution to this. I am facing similar issue for my project.

[wakaleo]

Use a profiler to see what is using memory. If you can provide a sample project to reproduce the issue, that could help.

H Team and @wakaleo,
I am too getting this "Java Heap Space - Out of memory error". I have 100+ test cases that includes API and UI and takes around 8 to 9 hours to execute in sequence. During execution it gives me java heap memory error and at the end generates serenity report with 0 test cases on it. However I see all report related files under \target\site\serenity folder. Any help would be much appreciated.
I tried with below and updating serenity to 3.2.0 version, but that did not help.

-Xmx1024m

Attached my POM file for reference
pom.txt

Thanks a lot!

Can you provide a sample project that reproduces the issue? 100 test cases should take under a minute to generate the reports (though 8-9 hours of execution would indicate that they are very long/slow tests, that has no impact on the report generation). Short answer - without being able to reproduce the issue, I have no idea what this could be caused by, as I have never encountered it (and I have projects that run with over 3000 tests and generate the reports quickly without needing any additional memory).

Thanks for quick response @wakaleo, This is our internal company application unfortunately I would not be able to share the code.
I will try to use profiler and get the report. I will get back you.
