Cucumber Tests to be run in JMeter. Getting "Could not initialize class io.cucumber.core.options.PluginOption"

[shsharm]

Hi,

I have a piece of Cucumber + JUNIT + Selenium WebDriver code to be used in JMeter for load testing. Following is the piece of code:

package runner; import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager; import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger; import org.junit.Test; import cucumber.api.cli.Main; import pageobjects.alinea.AssetsMetadataPage;

public class TestRunner{ private static Logger Log = LogManager.getLogger(AssetsMetadataPage.class);

public ClassLoader load;

public TestRunner(String str) {
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub

    this();
}
public TestRunner() {
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
// Test method is defined with Cucumber Main run method. 
// "-g" signifies glue code (package where the code is), "-t" signifies the tag.  The location of the feature file which defines the test scripts 

@Test

public void runTest() throws Throwable {
try {

        Main.run(new String[]{"-g", "step_definitions","-t", "@upload", "src/test/resources/features/addcontent.feature"}, ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader());
        //log.info("Print");
        Log.info("Print");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
// Post Test what the JUNIT test needs to do

}

This is the feature file: @upload Scenario: User upload the image Given navigate to folder and upload a picture

and imported these jar into the lib folder of jmeter: cobertura-1.8.jar mockito-core-3.5.5.jar cucumber-core-5.7.0.jar cucumber-java-5.7.0.jar cucumber-junit-5.7.0.jar cucumber-jvm-deps-1.0.6.jar gherkin-15.0.2.jar selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar

When I try to run from Eclipse, there's no issue, the execution is completed without any glitch. But when i run this from jmeter getting below error: Error -- runTest(org.apache.jmeter.protocol.java.sampler.JUnitSampler$AnnotatedTestCase): Could not initialize class io.cucumber.core.options.PluginOption

Am I missing something to add in jmeter for Cucumber options? Thanks in advance for your answers!

I have no experience with JMeter so unfortunately I can't help you fix the problem.
