Can't run individual tests using tag - all scenarios from the feature file are executed instead of the one that has the tag

[andrei-s-buta]

Our automated regression has more than 200 scenarios divided in multiple feature files. Each scenario has a scenarioID tag, regression tag and/or smoke tag

feature1.feature @scenario1 @regression @smoke Scenario: scenario 1 Given When Then

@scenario2 @regression Scenario: scenario 2 Given When Then

@scenario3 Scenario: scenario 1 Given When Then

feature2.feature @scenario4 @regression @smoke Scenario: scenario 1 Given When Then

@scenario5 @regression Scenario: scenario 2 Given When Then

@scenario6 Scenario: scenario 1 Given When Then

....

Current behavior

When I try to run all the scenarios containing @smoke tag or just a specific scenario using its tag @scenario1, cypress runs all the scenario inside the feature file

For e.g:

• in case of @smoke npx cypress-tags run -e TAGS='@smoke' --env allure=true --browser chrome --headed --> all scenarios are executed
• in case of @scenario1 npx cypress-tags run -e TAGS='@smoke' --env allure=true --browser chrome --headed --> all scenarios from feature1.feature file are executed

Desired behavior

For e.g:

• in case of @smoke - only @scenario1 and @scenario4 to be executed
• in case of @scenario1 - only @scenario1 to be executed

I had the same experience and although I'd like to use this instead of CucumberJS, the inability to use tags prevents my adoption.

Multiple variables has to be separated by commas, not by specifying -e / --env multiple times. This is simply how the Cypress CLI works. Try this instead.

$ npx cypress-tags run --env TAGS='@fidelity and @regress and not @Ignore',configFile=hlg

By using -e or --env multiple times, only last takes effect.
