@BeforeAll Tag is not triggering while running from terminal(serenity version 3.1.20)

[sandlok]

Hi All,
I am using latest serenity version with Cucumber 7 to use BeforeAll tag. This Tag is running fine when executing the test scenarios from feature file. However when executing the scenarios from terminal(mvn clean install) the @BeforeAll tag is not working. Please advise.

My Pom file

4.0.0

You can't run Serenity tests directly from the feature file. Looks like your pom.xml has some dependency conflicts - resolve these and see if the problem persists.

[sandlok]

@wakaleo I have tried again with resolving conflicts in Pom. Still @BeforeAll code is not triggering from terminal(mvn clean install)

[wakaleo]

It looks like BeforeAll and AfterAll are not supported by versions of Cucumber 7 before 7.2.1. This will be included in the standard Serenity dependencies in versions 3.2.0 onwards.

[jakimcho]

Hi @wakaleo I'm also experiencing the same Problem. the hooks @BeforeAll and @afterall are not executed when run with serenity and cucumber 7
I have created a simple project that logs messages on defferent cucumber Hooks: https://github.com/jakimcho/SerenityCucumber7
There are three branches and only the one with Cucumber 7.1.0 without serenity, logs messages from the @BeforeAll and @afterall hooks.

[wakaleo]

See my previous comment.

[jakimcho]

I saw it. Just wanted to point out that my plain cucumber project uses a cucumber version before 7.2.1 and the hooks work as expected.

[wakaleo]

@jakimcho OK, thanks. I knew this was introduced in 7.2.1 or earlier, but didn't know the precise version.

[sandlok]

@wakaleo when is the new serenity release planned(3.2.0)

[sandlok]

@jakimcho I see what you mean. I did execute the projects what ever you had mentioned in the link and observed the logs statements. only one with cucumber dependencies without serenity projects are executing @BEFOREALL @afterall

[wakaleo]

@wakaleo when is the new serenity release planned(3.2.0)

When it is ready.

@wakaleo when is the new serenity release planned(3.2.0)

When it is ready.

Ok.Thanks
