The Cucumber runtime parses command line options to know what features to run, where the glue code lives, what plugins to use etc.
When you use the JUnit runner, these options are generated from the @CucumberOptions
annotation on your test.
Sometimes it can be useful to override these options without changing or recompiling the JUnit class. This can be done with the
cucumber.options
system property. The general form is:
Using Maven:
mvn -Dcucumber.options="..." test
Let's look at some things you can do with cucumber.options
. Try this:
-Dcucumber.options="--help"
That should list all the available options.
IMPORTANT
When you override options with -Dcucumber.options
, you will completely override whatever options are hard-coded in
your @CucumberOptions
or in the script calling cucumber.api.cli.Main
. There is one exception to this rule, and that
is the --plugin
option. This will not override, but add a plugin. The reason for this is to make it easier
for 3rd party tools (such as Cucumber Pro) to automatically configure additional plugins by appending arguments to a cucumber.properties
file.
Specify a particular scenario by line (and use the pretty plugin, which prints the scenario back)
-Dcucumber.options="classpath:skeleton/belly.feature:4 --plugin pretty"
This works because Maven puts ./src/test/resources
on your classpath
.
You can also specify files to run by filesystem path:
-Dcucumber.options="src/test/resources/skeleton/belly.feature:4 --plugin pretty"
You can also specify what to run by tag:
-Dcucumber.options="--tags @bar --plugin pretty"
For example a JUnit formatter:
-Dcucumber.options="--plugin junit:target/cucumber-junit-report.xml"
