Cucumber stubs not generating correctly

[knoll2roll]

Hi guys,

I am using cucumber jvm version 1.2.4

When i run a feature file with no step definitions defined, the sub generation is appearing like this:

Given("^I am doing somthing$", () -> {

    // Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions

    throw new PendingException();

});

I have no idea why it is not generating correctly. My run file is:

import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions;
import cucumber.api.SnippetType;
import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
        plugin = {"pretty", "html:target/cucumber", "junit:target/junit_cucumber.xml", "json:target/cucumber.json"},
        features = "src/test/resources/features",
        tags = {"~@wip", "~@manual"},
        monochrome = true,
        snippets = SnippetType.CAMELCASE)
public class RunCukesTest {
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Knoll

What is incorrect in that snippet? What were you expecting?

Hi Paolo,

When I add the snippet to my java class I get errors. What I was expecting was:

@Given("^I am doing somthing$")

public void iAmDoingSomething() throws Throwable {

// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
throw new PendingException();
}

Unless I am missing something...

Which version of Java are you using to run your tests? Which version of Java (or Java Compiler Option) do you use to compile your snippets?

To me this looks like the generated snippet uses lambda while your IDE/compiler is either not supporting lambda or configured for a backward compatibility.

Since you are using java 1.8, you get Java8 lambda snippets.
When you copy them you need to define them in the constructor that implements cucumber.api.java8.En (or another i18n language), like here:
https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm/blob/master/java8/src/test/java/cucumber/runtime/java8/test/LambdaStepdefs.java

The snippet generation is just suggestions, you can or course also define the Java7 method type step definitions if you rather want to use them.
