cucumber reports
Publish prettyThis is a Java report publisher primarily created to publish cucumber reports on the Jenkins build server. It publishes pretty html reports with charts showing the results of cucumber runs. It has been split out into a standalone package so it can be used for Jenkins and maven command line as well as any other packaging that might be useful. Generated report has no dependency so can be viewed offline.
Background
Cucumber is a test automation tool following the principles of Behavioural Driven Design and living documentation. Specifications are written in a concise human readable form and executed in continuous integration.
This project allows you to publish the results of a cucumber run as pretty html reports. In order for this to work you must generate a cucumber json report. The project converts the json report into an overview html linking to separate feature files with stats and results.

Usage
File reportOutputDirectory = new File("target");
List<String> jsonFiles = new ArrayList<>();
jsonFiles.add("cucumber-report-1.json");
jsonFiles.add("cucumber-report-2.json");
String buildNumber = "1";
String projectName = "cucumberProject";
boolean runWithJenkins = false;
Configuration configuration = new Configuration(reportOutputDirectory, projectName);
// optional configuration - check javadoc
configuration.setRunWithJenkins(runWithJenkins);
configuration.setBuildNumber(buildNumber);
// addidtional metadata presented on main page
configuration.addClassifications("Platform", "Windows");
configuration.addClassifications("Browser", "Firefox");
configuration.addClassifications("Branch", "release/1.0");
// optionally add metadata presented on main page via properties file
List<String> classificationFiles = new ArrayList<>();
classificationFiles.add("properties-1.properties");
classificationFiles.add("properties-2.properties");
configuration.addClassificationFiles(classificationFiles);
ReportBuilder reportBuilder = new ReportBuilder(jsonFiles, configuration);
Reportable result = reportBuilder.generateReports();
// and here validate 'result' to decide what to do if report has failed
There is a feature overview page:
And there are also feature specific results pages:
And useful information for failures:
If you have tags in your cucumber features you can see a tag overview:
And you can drill down into tag specific reports:
Live demo
You can play with the live demo report before you decide if this is worth to install. Mind that not all features are enabled as the report is generated by sample code.
Code quality
Once you developed your new feature or improvement you should test it by providing several unit or integration tests.
BrowserStack
We use BrowserStack to examine HTML report against different browsers and platforms.
