Below are the files that I am using under

src/main/java/ features loginnewtour.feature myRunner TestRunner.java stepDef loginstepdefnewtour.java

I have a feature file as "loginnewtour.feature"

Feature: New Tour Login Testing
  Scenario: Valid data testing
    Given user is already on Login Page
    When title of login page is new tour
    Then user enters "mercury"

implemented all steps mentioned in the feature file as "loginstepdefnewtour.java"

package stepDef;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import cucumber.api.java.en.Given;
import cucumber.api.java.en.Then;
import cucumber.api.java.en.When;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class loginstepdefnewtour {

    WebDriver driver;

    @Given("^user is already on Login Page$")
    public void user_is_already_on_Login_Page() throws Throwable {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","c:\\Grid\\chromedriver.exe");
        driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.get("http://newtours.demoaut.com/");
    }

    @When("^title of login page is new tour$")
    public void title_of_login_page_is_new_tour() throws Throwable {
        String title = driver.getTitle();
        System.out.println(title);
    }

    @Then("^user enters \"([^\"]*)\"$")
    public void user_enters_and(String arg1, String arg2) throws Throwable {
        driver.findElement(By.name("userName")).sendKeys("sunil");
    }
}

and "testrunner.java" is as

package myRunner;

import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import cucumber.api.testng.AbstractTestNGCucumberTests;

//@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
        features = "src/main/java/features/loginnewtour.feature",
        glue={"src/main/java/stepDef/loginstepdefnewtour.java"}, 
        plugin= {"pretty","html:test-outout", "json:json_output/cucumber.json", "junit:junit_xml/cucumber.xml"}, 
        monochrome = true,
        strict = true, 
        dryRun = false
)

public class TestRunner extends AbstractTestNGCucumberTests{

}

Answer 1

You specified a wrong value for the glue path. You need to specified the Java packages to search for.

instead of

glue={"src/main/java/stepDef/loginstepdefnewtour.java"}, 

it should be

glue={"stepDef"}, 

Also a method signature is wrong

-- public void user_enters_and(String arg1, String arg2) throws Throwable {
public void user_enters_and(String arg1) throws Throwable {

edit The files in the project with the naming you provided (please consider to follow the Java naming convention for the files)

src/main/java/stepDef/loginstepdefnewtour.java
src/main/java/features/loginnewtour.feature
src/test/java/myRunner/TestRunner.java

loginstepdefnewtour.java

package stepDef;

import cucumber.api.java.en.Given;
import cucumber.api.java.en.Then;
import cucumber.api.java.en.When;

public class loginstepdefnewtour {

    @Given("^user is already on Login Page$")
    public void user_is_already_on_Login_Page() throws Throwable { }

    @When("^title of login page is new tour$")
    public void title_of_login_page_is_new_tour() throws Throwable { }

    @Then("^user enters \"([^\"]*)\"$")
    public void user_enters_and(String arg1) throws Throwable { }
}

loginnewtour.feature

Has the content you provided.

TestRunner.java

package myRunner;

import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import cucumber.api.testng.AbstractTestNGCucumberTests;

//@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
        features = "src/main/java/features/loginnewtour.feature",
        glue={"stepDef"}, 
        plugin= {
            "pretty","html:test-outout", 
            "json:json_output/cucumber.json", 
            "junit:junit_xml/cucumber.xml"
        }, 
        monochrome = true,
        strict = true, 
        dryRun = false
)

public class TestRunner extends AbstractTestNGCucumberTests{

}

Execute the tests

mvn compile test
