Failed to parse Cucumber JSON with Cucumber json test reporting plugin

[Josh Lesch]

After installing this plugin and adding it to my post build, I get an error saying that it failed to archive the cucumber reports. I have to leave the report location empty because it will not locate any location I put in there. Has anybody else seen this problem?

Which cucumber implementation (eg cucumber-jvm) and version are you running the tests with?
Can you put the offending Jason online somewhere?

It sounds like you have a step that is missing a resuilt , they should all have even if the step not run.

I am using the cucumber ruby implementation and its version 1.3.10. I am using an Scenario Outline with Examples. I am trying to switch to this reporting plugin because the other Cucumber Reports plugin can't handle Scenario Outlines right and always fails the build.

Scenario Outline: Verify the footer links that open in a new modal

    Given I am on website

    When I click on the "<Footer Links>" link in the footer

    Then I should see a modal pop up

  Examples:

    |Footer Links     |

    |Sign In          |

    |Create an Account|

    |Free Shipping |   

[

  {

    "keyword": "Feature",

Hi Josh,

 

There’s no results at all in that json file – so the plugin won’t know if it ran ok or failed.

 

I would ask on the cucumber mailing list why the ruby implantation is missing this vital information (unless I am missing something..)

Yeah I noticed that when I was pasting the json on my reply. Thanks, I will check out what the cucumber people have to say about it.
