Following 3 steps are quite handy while configuring any Cucumber project from new/existing in Eclipse:

  1. Install these 2 Plugins from Eclipse Marketplace - Cucumber Eclipse & Natural
  2. Right-click on project and select Configure -> Convert to Cucumber Project...
  3. Install pending Eclipse updates, if any.

This will solve the original problem of control click (navigation to step definition file from feature file) in Eclipse as well.

Are you using Cucumber 5? There are opened issues about this:

  1. cucumber-eclipse plugin does not support Cucumber 5
  2. .feature doesn't work with import from io.cucumber but work with cucumber.api

  • Uninstall Cucumber from marketplace and restart the eclipse

  • Then just search for keyword "Cucumber" in the marketplace, install it and restart Eclipse.

  • Now from project tree open your feature file with "Cucumber Editor".

  • Control + Click and you are good to go.
