Bug: Serenity report is empty when using plugins with junit @ConfigurationParameter

[mrpet88]

Run sample project with clean test -Dcucumber.filter.tags="@MyTest"
When there is at least one plugin imported with junit @ConfigurationParameter then the report is empty (check screenshot and src/test/java/starter/CucumberTestSuite.java runner)
If the same plugin is referenced through junit-platform.properties then report is showing correctly.

https://github.com/mrpet88/basicProjects/tree/main

Other info:

serenityCoreVersion = '3.6.21'
id "net.serenity-bdd.serenity-gradle-plugin" version "3.6.7"

@cliviu any idea about this one?

[cliviu]

This is strange. @mrpet88 , how are you exactly configuring the plugin using junit-platform.properties?

[mrpet88]

Hello, not sure what do you mean by "how", but in general the whole junit-platform.properties and serenity-cucumber runner configuration can be found on the attached github repo. More or less the configuration I followed is coming from the instructions:
https://serenity-bdd.github.io/docs/guide/cucumber

[wakaleo]

Found it: you need to also include the Serenity plugin - for some reason if you declare plugins in the runner class, JUnit no longer reads them from the properties file, so you need to do this:

@ConfigurationParameter(key = PLUGIN_PROPERTY_NAME, value = "io.cucumber.core.plugin.SerenityReporterParallel,pretty,json:build/test-results/cucumber/frontend/global/results.json,timeline:build/test-results/timeline")

[mrpet88]

Indeed, never thought to add the SerenityReporterParallel in the runner class. Works now, thanks!

[wakaleo]

@allahmalum79 that looks like a project-specific dependency issue. If it is urgent we can certainly organise some commercial support to get you unstuck.

[allahmalum79]
