Scenario successfully ran. But, no index.html file being generated under target/site/serenity folder.

I am able to run my POC scenario inside the feature file successfully, but there is no index.html file being generated under target/site/serenity folder. What setting I need to enter in serenity.properties or serenity.conf files ??

you need to add a serenity plugin in pom.xml to aggregate the reports.

To run the tests, use command: mvn clean verify

above command will automatically run all the tests in your suite, generates the reports, also will be aggregated, i.e., index.html will be produced.

Hello  All;
I have not installed maven on my local mac due to admin rights issue, so can't run from terminal. How to run 'mvn clean test' from with in the IntelliJ idea, I forgot. So all I am doing is highlight the runner class and pick Run. It is running passing all the steps in the scenario, but the index.html did not get formed under target/site/serenity. I believe, it is supposed to be formed automatically by the Serenity framework.

From the IntelliJ IDEA web site, I read

In the Run Anything window, start typing a name of the goal you want to execute. The window also displays a list of recent Maven goal entries.

So, I ran **mvn clean verify**.

Then the maven build the whole application, ran it successfully and then finally it generated the index.html file and the content.

Good lord ! Why this is so complicated ? Why can't it produce the site, after running just the Runner file.

BTW Sandeep;
The plug in is already there as I was using the latest starter project
```<groupId>net.serenity-bdd.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>serenity-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${serenity.maven.version}</version>```

Producing the full report is a heavy operation. If it happened after each test it would be very inefficient, particularly for large test suites.
