Thank you so much Naveen for your videos. Your videos are crisp, to the point, covers all the information. We can study more in a lesser time because you don't beat around the bush. I am a fan

@Naveen Sir : As per the video, the cucumber version mentioned in the pom is 6.9.0, When I did with the same config I am getting other dependency erros. When I downgraded the version to 4.8.0, it worked fine. Could you tell me the possible reason. I have clean build the project, restarted the eclipse as well.

Hi Naveen,
It's wonderful. Crystal clear explaination.

I have followed the similar steps mentioned in the video. But, in the feature file, (*.feature), i dont see any auto generated script file. I am using below configurations






Eclipse version :

Hi Naveen,
i am facing following issues

1. Am using windows 10 and eclipse IDE version 2020-09
Following your video i created a feature file and its step definition file
Andi can only execute the feature file by right clicking on the feature page ->RunAs -> cucmber feature
But i cannot execute the feature file by right clicking on feature file name ->RunAs -> cucmber feature in the explorer

2. AutoNavigation from feature file to stepDefinition file is not happening for few when i try to perform using ctrl+mouse hover and click
i checked with naming and even spaces everything is looking same in both the files "feature" "stepDefinition"

3.And also getting this warning in feature file
Multiple markers at this line
- The resource is a duplicate of and was not copied to the output folder
- 8 changed lines
And i created this resource source folder based on the lecture and i dont know where it is referring for duplicate.

Solution from peers also highly appreciable
Thanks in advance

Hi sir,
What is the solution for regeneration step definition? Step Definition is generated when I run the feature file for the first time. The step definition is generated when i run the Java class again after implementation in the Java class.Result : (you can implement the missing steps with the snippet given below:
1) with scenarios (1 undefined)
3 steps (1 omitted, 2 undefined) while step definition has already been generated and implemented.

If the feature file is not showing colours or steps as link .. Go to your feature file right click -open with Editors- it will work most properly 👍🏻

[satyaguddu]

Hello Naveen, Is this possible to add multiple annotation in one step definition. I have two scenarios where in one scenario same step can be used with Then and another is with And annotation. So I should write two steps definition for each with duplicate code(which i will not prefer to do) . Could you please highlight on this?

[sushmareddy]

Hi Naveen
Thank you and really appreciate your efforts. I have quick question: In my project we are using step definition file. I am new to this API automation as well as Karate framework. How do i know from where integrating methods. We are using IntelliJ IDE. Java is pgm language.

[supriyassampath]

Amazing tutorial. You are jus wow Naveen.

[akankshasikri]

Hi Naveen, I am getting no glue code warning for the feature files. I have defined the step definitions and also installed latest cucumber plugin. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin still no luck. Could you please suggest some solution.

[chethankumar]

@naveenautomationlabs if we want to get the data from properties file instead of feature file examples how we can achieve it??

[raj]

Do we have any way to run Steps in Sequential order? For example we first 1 feature file and execute the 2nd feature file which has steps mapped in different class only after 1st feature file is executed

[bhagyashreek]

Sir i have followed same evnthough after copy pasting step defn mehods, yellow color underline below feature file lines. And that cucumber green symbol not came on feaure folder, iam consuded wer iam doing wrong pls tell me.
