Gradle Cucumber-JVM Plugin

The gradle cucumber-jvm plugin provides the ability to run cucumber acceptance tests directly from a gradle build. The plugin utilizes the cucumber cli provided by the cucumber-jvm project, while imposing a few constraints to encourage adopters to use cucumber in a gradle friendly manner. Some of constraints include:

A Cucumber test suite should be contained in a single source set
Glue code should be compiled by gradle and use annotations to glue to the features
Features should be in the resources folder of the source set representing the test suite.
This plugin generates Cucumber reports based on masterthought's Cucumber reporting project

The inspiration for this plugin drew heavily from the work of Samuel Brown's Cucumber Plugin and Camilo Ribeiro's Cucumber Gradle Parallel Example.

Using the plugin in your gradle build script

The following gradle configuration will create a new Cucumber based test suite named cucumberTest and configure it to run up to 3 parallel forks. The cucumberTest source set will depend on the project's main source set.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "http://repo.bodar.com"
        }
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.commercehub:gradle-cucumber-jvm-plugin:0.6'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'java'            
apply plugin: 'cucumber-jvm'

  
addCucumberSuite 'cucumberTest'
  
cucumber {
    maxParallelForks = 3
}

cucumberTest {
    stepDefinitionRoots = ['cucumber.steps', 'cucumber.hooks']
}

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    cucumberTestCompile 'info.cukes:cucumber-java:1.2.2'
}

Running the following command will execute the test suite:

gradle(w) cucumberTest

Cucumber Task Configuration

Cucumber tasks can be configured at two levels, globally for the project and individually for a test suite. This allows for projects to contain multiple Cucumber test suites that can differ on some properties while inheriting other property values form the project defaults. Both levels of configuration make the following settings available:

stepDefinitionRoots: A list of root packages to scan the classpath for glue code. Default to ['cucumber.steps', 'cucumber.hooks']
featureRoots: A list of root packages to scan the resources folders on the classpath for feature files. Defaults to ['features']
tags: A list of tags to identify scenarios to run. Default to an empty list.
isStrict: A boolean value indicating whether scenarios should be evaluated strictly. Defaults to false
snippits: Indicator to cucumber on what style to use for generated step examples. Legal values include camelcase, underscore. Defaults to camelcase
maxParallelForks: Maximum number of forked Java processes to start to run tests in parallel. Default to 1

Reporting

By default, this plugin will generate reports based on masterthought's Cucumber reporting project.

Junit reporting can be enabled by setting the junitReport property to true.
