i'm new in cucumber design and i trying to parallel test two feature file(login.feature, registration.feature, both are inside src/test/java/features), but not able run both parallel. can anyone help me out?
Here is my pom.xml

Here is my runnerclass, which is inside the src\test\java\runners\MainRunnerTest.java:
package runners;
import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import io.cucumber.junit.Cucumber;
import io.cucumber.testng.AbstractTestNGCucumberTests;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.testng.annotations.DataProvider;
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(features = {"src/test/java/features/"},
glue = {"stepDefinitions"},
monochrome = true, tags = {"@RegressionTest"}
)
public class MainRunnerTest extends AbstractTestNGCucumberTests {
MainRunnerTest mainRunnerTest;
@DataProvider(parallel = true)
public Object[][] features() {
return mainRunnerTest.features();
}
}
Here is my
Junit:
Yes, you can execute features files in parallel in Cucumber. using JUnit and Maven test execution plugins. In fact using JUnit, only the feature files can be executed in parallel not the scenarios with in same file.Maven Surefire can be used to execute the runners.
Add the Surefire plugin configuration to the build section to the POM.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-M1</version>
<configuration>
<parallel>methods</parallel>
<useUnlimitedThreads>true</useUnlimitedThreads>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Update your runner class as below:
@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(features = {"src/test/java/features/"},
glue = {"stepDefinitions"},
monochrome = true, tags = {"@RegressionTest"}
)
TestNG:
However if you are using TextNG not only you can execute feature files in parallel but scenarios as well inside a feature file.
Add the Maven Surefire plugin configuration to the build section of the POM.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-M1</version>
</plugin>
Then update your MainRunnerTest method as below:
@Override
@DataProvider(parallel = true)
public Object[][] scenarios() {
return super.scenarios();
}
