How to use notifyScreenChange method of net.thucydides.junit.listeners.TestCountListener class

It seems I'm using Cucumber with Serenity and the Cucumber team is not currently supporting JUnit TestRules for philosophical reasons. Here's hoping they change their mind :)

See https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm/issues/894

JDelorean the reason as far as i know is that alert has been popped up before selenium code reacted to the alert code. Hence its wise to add some delay in between the alert code. Something like i did as follows

@Test public void receiptDateFieldIncorrectDateFormat() {

    page.open();

    steps.inputIntoReceiptDateField("99999999");

    steps.clickSubmitButton();

Thread.sleep(3000);

    String firstMsg = page.getAlert().getText();

    page.getAlert().accept();

Thread.sleep(3000);
    String secondMsg = page.getAlert().getText();

    page.getAlert().accept();

    Assert.assertEquals("The year is invalid.", firstMsg);

    Assert.assertEquals("Invalid Receipt Date format.", secondMsg);

}

or you can use something like

> WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 15);  
> wait.until(ExpectedConditions.alertIsPresent());

You can set priority in this way

        @Test(priority = 1,alwaysRun = true)
        public void rentalhomesHomePage() throws InterruptedException {
            //Your test case

        }

Find the solution for parallel execution with cucumber 7 and serenity junit 4. Below pom.xml is tested and working to execute parallel. According to this pom.xml to execute two ways:

1. locally - add to your runner in tags tag you want to run and then execute this command mvn clean verify

2. mvn clean verify -Dtags="@yourtagHere"

Check https://github.com/temyers/cucumber-jvm-parallel-plugin There is stated:

As of cucumber-jvm:4.0.0 parallel execution is supported natively by cucumber. As such, upgrading to Cucumber 4.0.0 is recommended and this plugin is no longer maintained.

So consider leave cucumber-jvm-parallel-plugin

It looks like you have in your pom.xml something like

<tags>"~@ignore"</tags>

try to change it to

    <tags>
      <tag>~@ignore</tag>
    </tags>

BTW proper new style is now not @ignore check https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/tree/master/tag-expressions#migrating-from-old-style-tags

I figured out how it actually works. All you have to do is add Surefire plugin with Failsafe plugin when you use both of them. It works like a charm.

I believe that this should be possible using the custom environments option when scheduling a run in Device Farm. Admittedly, I don't have experience with serenity but here is blog which uses cucumber tests.

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/testing-mobile-apps-with-cucumber-and-appium-through-testng-on-aws-device-farm/

It looks like serenity is similar or extended from cucumber so in theory this might work.

[Edit]

Here are a few short gradle build tasks which should help to create a test package for Device Farm.

Note: this assumes that the dependencies are structured in the build.gradle file like this:

dependencies {

    testCompile(
            'net.serenity-bdd:serenity-junit:2.0.18',
            'net.serenity-bdd:serenity-cucumber:1.9.20',
            'org.assertj:assertj-core:3.11.1',
            'ch.qos.logback:logback-classic:1.2.3',
            'io.github.bonigarcia:webdrivermanager:3.0.0'
    )
}

sample build.gradle code

//source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27455099/8016330
task getDeps(type: Copy) {
    from sourceSets.test.runtimeClasspath
    // if you need this from the dependencies in the build.gradle then it should be : 
    // from sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
    into 'build/libs/dependency-jars'
}

//packaging tests task which is generated from sample using gradle init
task packageTests(type: Jar) {
    dependsOn getDeps
    from sourceSets.test.output
    classifier = 'tests'
}

//create zip archive
//source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/36883221/8016330
task zip(type: Zip) {
    dependsOn packageTests
    from 'build/libs/'
    include '*'
    include '*/*' //to include contents of a folder present inside dependency-jars directory
    archiveName 'zip-with-dependencies.zip'
    destinationDir(file('build/libs/'))
}

Then you should be able to create the zip file using this command:

./gradlew clean zip

Note: You'll need the clean command otherwise it will package the previous zip archive in the new zip archive.

See https://github.com/serenity-bdd/serenity-core/#cucumber-4. I expect Serenity will only work with JUnit 5 in vintage mode.

Unfortunately Serenity is not supported by basic JUnit 5 so I had to use JUnit 5 Vintage only. It can run JUnit 4 tests. It works now.
