How to use usingTimeout method of net.serenitybdd.jbehave.embedders.monitors.CompositeEmbedderMonitor class

If you are using Maven take a look at Maven Failsafe plugin Rerun Failing Tests feature:

http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-failsafe-plugin/examples/rerun-failing-tests.html

I could not make it run with using configuredEmbedder() but by adding -Dmetafilter="+working -finished" as goals in my mvn run configurations and using the tags @working for scenarios I'm working with and which I want to run and @finsihed for scenarios I don't want to execute. Still I have to change the run configuration if I want to change the meta tags so it is not very comfortable but still I get what I was looking for.

Enter the following property in serenity.properties file

webdriver.base.url = http://en.wiktionary.org

In your page object define the DefaultUrl like this

@DefaultUrl("/wiki/Wiktionary")
public class DictionaryPage extends PageObject {


}

Serenity will construct the complete URL while calling DefaultUrl.

For further reference on all the properties available in serenity.properties please refer link below https://github.com/serenity-bdd/serenity-documentation/blob/master/src/asciidoc/system-props.adoc

A issue has been raised (including quick fix) with the bdd serenity-jbehave version 1.8.0 and higher:

issue #109

You can try importing Spring libraries and create a singleton object for the driver your created. By this you can share the same browser session from anywhere. To have a new browser for the second instance, quit the browser session in the singleton object and redefine it.

Reading the extra comment / improves question, it sounds indeed like an Integration Test.

There are some need Integration Test libraries like JBehave, Serenity, Cucumber, etc which would probably better for setting this up.

With TestNG, you could create 3 tests, where each next test depends on the previous test. See code sample below, from testng dependency test

package com.mkyong.testng.examples.dependency;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class App {

    @Test
    public void method1() {
        System.out.println("This is method 1");
    }

    @Test(dependsOnMethods = { "method1" })
    public void method2() {
        System.out.println("This is method 2");
    }

}

Here the most simple dependency is show. See the sample code for more complex cases, like groups etc. For setting up two test classes each with their own @Factory

My bad, it appears to be a POM.xml configuration issue:

When using Serenity Rest-Assured, the POM.xml cannot contain the standalone Rest-Assured Dependency. Having both Serenity Rest-Assured and the standalone Rest-Assured libraries in the POM.xml will result in the error.

I upgraded Intellij and the issue was resolved.

This worked to me:

The JBehave API seems to have changed, it seems you now need to add the ScenarioType parameter:

@BeforeScenario(uponType = ScenarioType.ANY)
public void setTheStage() {
    OnStage.setTheStage(new OnlineCast());
}
