Unable to run cucumber scenarios from within IntelliJ

[jhinze]

Hello,

I am unable to run Cucumber scenarios from within IntelliJ with the latest versions of serenity-core and serenitity-cucumber. The scenarios do run via maven. Previously, before the Cucumber-JVM 2.0.0 integration, I was able to run scenarios from within IntelliJ via the provided plugins. I know it is not required but it is helpful to be able to execute scenarios from within IntelliJ when implementing and debugging.

Versions:
serenity-core 1.6.6
serenity-cucumber 1.5.15
Cucumber for Java IntelliJ plugin 173.3302
Gherkin IntelliJ plugin 173.3302

Error:
4413 [main] INFO net.serenitybdd.rest.decorators.request.RequestSpecificationDecorated - No BaseStepListener, GET https://../* not registered.

Running feature files directly has only ever been possible using the custom Serenity runner (see https://johnfergusonsmart.com/running-cucumber-serenity-feature-files-directly-intellij/). However, the Cucumber integration with IntelliJ currently is not compatible with Cucumber 2.0.x, so it generates an error message when you run it (see https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/cucumber.html).

Thanks,
I am able to run features directly from IntelliJ after setting up the configuration described above. Also, IntelliJ now has support for Cucumber 2.0.x. See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-179579
