[SOLVED] Concurrent Story Reporters in Jbehave

Concurrent Story Reporters in Jbehave

I am developing my custom story reporter which extends NullStoryReporter. But my tests should be run in concurrent mode. For this case I found ConcurrentStoryReporter in org.jbehave.core.reporters package, but I have some difficulties in its usage.

ConcurrentStoryReporter' constructor:

public ConcurrentStoryReporter(StoryReporter crossReferencing, StoryReporter delegate, boolean multiThreading) {
    this.crossReferencing = crossReferencing;
    this.delegate = delegate;
    this.multiThreading = multiThreading;
    delayedMethods = multiThreading ? Collections.synchronizedList(new ArrayList<DelayedMethod>()) : null;
}

As I understand the delegate is my custom story reporter. But could you, please, clarify what should I cast as 'StoryReporter crossReferencing' to the constructor? Are there any example of usage the class?

Solution

crossReferencing could be new NullStoryReporter().

In general it's not required to use ConcurrentStoryReporter explicitly. JBehave wraps reporters automatically when number of threads is more than 1.
