Error while executing features.

[varunwy]

I executed the below steps:

1. gem install cucumber-nagios
2. cucumber-nagios-gen mytest
3. cd mytest
4. bundle install
5. cucumber-nagios-gen feature google.com home

The file 'features/google.com/home.feature' contains:

feature: google.co.in It should be up

Scenario: Visiting home page When I go to "http://www.google.co.in" Then the request should succeed

1. Now when I execute

"cucumber-nagios features/google.com/home.feature"

it prints the following error:

wrong number of arguments (8 for 7) (ArgumentError)

What can I do to make it work? Is the project in a stable state and well tested?

[varunwy]

I debugged this further and located the problem: Method: visit_step_result in /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-1.2.1/bin/../lib/cucumber/ast/tree_walker.rb calls 'broadcast' with 8 arguments broadcast(keyword, step_match, multiline_arg, status, exception, source_indent, background, file_colon_line) which in turn calls Method: after_step_result in file: /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-nagios-0.9.2/lib/cucumber/formatter/nagios.rb. The method after_step_result is defined with 7 arguments only.

def after_step_result(keyword, step_match, multiline_arg, status, exception, source_indent, background) record_result(status, :step_match => step_match, :keyword => keyword) end

I fave fixed this by adding an option argument to method after_step_result: def after_step_result(keyword, step_match, multiline_arg, status, exception, source_indent, background, *tmp) record_result(status, :step_match => step_match, :keyword => keyword) end

I have no experience programming with Ruby and hence not sure if this is the correct way to fix, though it works for me now.

[bappelt]

I am experiencing this as well.

[bappelt]

The problem seems to be that an additional argument was added to visit_step_result method in This Commit

Since the cucumber-nagios gemspec file uses the open ended ">= 0.10.0" for it's cucumber dependency, the latest will get installed.

I just manually installed cucumber 1.1.2 and that seems to work.

[BenoitPoulet]

Thank you varunwy !!!

I got the same problem after a «gem update» and you quick fix do the trick.

It seems the cucumber-nagios gem is a dead project :/, 3 months after you post the fix, the bug is stil here.

[hedgehog]

Can anyone confirm the suggestion of @bappelt:

• works and is the least intrusive change?
• Make a pull request?

[BenoitPoulet]

I'm sorry i'm a newbie in the rubby world. 1) Did you suggests to downgrade Cucumber ? Not really a good way to solve the pb in my point of view. 2) «Make a pull request?» sorry , i don't understand :(

[hedgehog]

Yes I think @bappelt suggested 1.1.2 as the version so try using a Gem dep version of ~>1.1.2

[BenoitPoulet]

I removed «cucumber-1.2.1» and «gherkin-2.11.2» (dependency). so that is installed (gem list) : cucumber (1.1.9, 1.1.3) cucumber-nagios (0.9.2)

I removed the hack of Varunwy and it works : CUCUMBER OK - Critical: 0, Warning: 0, 8 okay | passed=8; failed=0; nosteps=0; total=8; time=12

[injcristianrojas]

Indeed it seems to be dead, @benoiteolas .

[bendilley]

Please see pull request #88 as a potential solution. @hedgehog would you be interested in this? It is along the lines of @bappelt's suggestion and works for me.

Thanks @hedgehog!
