how to access steps available in other cucumber project in current cucumber project

[reddy]

Please help me understand accessing steps available in other cucumber projects in current cucumber project.

i have tried glue option as well and i also have added other cucumber project jar file in maven dependencies but could not make it work. 

attaching 2 cucumber project jar files. basically i have some steps defined in "cucumbertestautomation2" project. and i am trying to access those steps in "cucumbertestautomation1" project. Please help. 

[reddy]

Below is the feature file of project1:

        Feature: To test cucumber test is running

I want to run a sample feature file.

Scenario: cucumber setup

Given sample feature file is ready1

When I run the feature file1

Then run should be successful1

Scenario: cucumber setup for cucmbertestautomation2

Given sample feature file is ready2

When I run the feature file2

Then run should be successful2

[reddy]

"Given sample feature file is ready2" step is available in project2.

and POM is including project2 jar file like below:

    <dependency>

<groupId>com.celcom</groupId>

<artifactId>cucumbertestautomation2</artifactId>

<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

</dependency>

Still the step "Given sample feature file is ready2" is not recognized which is there in the dependency.

Usage: java cucumber.api.cli.Main [options] [ [FILE|DIR][:LINE[:LINE]*] ]+

Options:

    -g, --glue PATH                        Where glue code (step definitions and hooks) is loaded from.

    -f, --format FORMAT[:PATH_OR_URL]      How to format results. Goes to STDOUT unless PATH_OR_URL is specified.

                                           Built-in FORMAT types: junit, html, pretty, progress, json.

                                           FORMAT can also be a fully qualified class name.

    -t, --tags TAG_EXPRESSION              Only run scenarios tagged with tags matching TAG_EXPRESSION.

    -n, --name REGEXP                      Only run scenarios whose names match REGEXP.

    -d, --[no-]-dry-run                    Skip execution of glue code.

    -m, --[no-]-monochrome                 Don't colour terminal output.

Vino,

First suggestion, don't tag an unrelated question onto the end of an
existing thread. That's a good way to make your question unnoticed.

What version of cucumber are you using? The --format option has been
deprecated in favor of the newer --plugin option for some time.

I agree completely.
In this case he did post his question again on a new thread:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/cukes/g8Wtg7nvvlQ
Let's continue the discussion there.

Hi

If you add a jar containing the classes from cucumbertestautomation1
to your cucumbertestautomation2 project and make sure that the
classpath for the steps is the same, then it will work out of the box.

The trick is to make sutre that the steps you want to reuse are
defined in the same package, or a subpackage, to your test runner.

If the packages isn't the same, then it will not work since Cucumber
scans the classpath after steps and it only searches for classes in
the same package as the runner or a subpackage.
