Suppose I have a test case like -
*Scenario: Facebook login test
GIVEN I am a Facebook user
WHEN I enter my user name & password
THEN login should be successful*
How could I get the scenario name from the step definition methods corresponding to "I am a Facebook user" or "I enter my user name & password" or "login should be successful" ?
Step definitions methods are -
@Given("^I am a Facebook user$")
public void method1() {
//some coding
//I want to get the scenario name here
}
@When("^I enter my user name & password$")
public void method2() {
//some coding
//I want to get the scenario name here
}
@Then("^login should be successful$")
public void method3() {
//some coding
//I want to get the scenario name here
}
No @Bappa, it's possible, though your stepdefinition class is singleton and your tests are in parallel, see it be attacked with below approach by enhancing it with thread-safe static hash map variable used for storage:
public class StepDefinitions{
private static HashMap<Integer,String> scenarios;
public StepDefinitions(){ //or even inside of your singleton's getInstance();
if(scenarios == null)
scenarios = new HashMap<Integer,String();
}
@Before
public void beforeHook(Scenario scenario) {
addScenario(scenario.getName());
}
@When("your step definition")
public void stepDefinition1(){
String scenario = getScenario(); //problem-o-solved here...
}
private void addScenario(String scenario){
Thread currentThread = Thread.currentThread();
int threadID = currentThread.hashCode();
scenarios.put(threadID,scenario);
}
private synchronized String getScenario(){
Thread currentThread = Thread.currentThread();
int threadID = currentThread.hashCode();
return scenarios.get(threadID);
}
You can use the @Before
hook to get the current executing Scenario
object.
@Before
public void beforeHook(Scenario scenario) {
this.sce = scenario
System......(scenario.getName())
System......(scenario.getId())
}
You can access the stored scenario object in your step definitions.
Inside the step definition, you can use CucumberHelper.scenario.getName()
.
Based on this API you can use getID
, getSourceTagNames
, getStatus
and getClass
methods.
