1 year ago Apologies for the late response, I've had some surgeries that took me out of commission for quite a while.
Q: Is there a way to group them under the func name? Why does every step look like another test case? A: Because XCTest is not even remotely friendly to tie into. The only way to do it is to use the Objective-C runtime and dynamically create classes. So that's what CucumberSwift does. This causes all of the behaviors you've witnessed. There isn't a way to group them per se...but there are 3 workarounds.
- You can use the report navigator in Xcode to see a much better grouping of features/scenarios/steps.
- You can use the Cucumber Report (JSON format, but there are renderers). This looks the best.
- You can use the DSL with your own XCTestCase classes, much like you'd write any other kind of test. The downside here is that you can't use
.featurefiles, which depending on your team structure and desire to work with other Cucumber implementations, might not be practical.
Q: Is it possible to run any test seperately? Right now if i run any test separately, it gets succeeded without running cucumber steps but if i run them all (cmd+U) cucumber works.
A: Yeah, that's because the classes are dynamically created, and so rerun can't actually find the class to run. There is a workaround with the shouldRun method. NOTE: This will be moved to DocC when I have time. These docs show how you can run by line number, but you have the scenario object, so run by whatever criteria you want, tags, line, scenario title, whatever.
Q: When i run tests from the terminal and CI/CD, cucumber also doesn't work. Is there a documentation to follow for this implementation? A: That's weird...I run by CI/CD all the time. In fact this whole library can only deploy if that works. I'd need way more info on what you're trying to do. Short answer: If you use xcodebuild to run your tests, you should be fine.

Hi, i am trying to implement this to my project but there are some concepts that i can't understand. I read the docs and checked the CucumberSwiftSample but it didnt help.
How i use it:
As you can see in the image I defined steps inside the test func and expect them to be grouped in the test results with a big T but every single step looks like they are a separate test. My questions are:
