• Cucumber JVM Report

To generate the cucumber HTML and JSON report we need to add the plugin to CucumberTest class like below.

plugin = { “json:target/cucumber.json”, “pretty”,“html:target/cucumber-reports” }

The full example of the Test class.

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(features = "src/test/resources/", plugin = { "json:target/cucumber.json", "pretty",
        "html:target/cucumber-reports" })
public class CucumberTest {

}

By adding the above configuration to cucumber test class we can see different the HTML and JSON report at target directories after running of the test cases, like below.

There is a cucumber JVM report plugin which can be used to generate pretty HTML reports with charts showing the results of cucumber runs. This is mainly used to publish cucumber reports on the Jenkins build server. There is a maven plugin also to generate the same report in the local directory. We will see both here.
