How to modify content of "Set up" and "Tear down" within the Execution (Suites)

[dariuszkanicki]

I'd like to change the content of those two sections.
The "Test body" is generated based on the cucumber annotations and is not "technical".
Accordingly I want to replace the content of the "Set up" and "Tear down" section with more non-technical information instead of having the method name (incl. signature) displayed.

The final result should look like the picture below.
This means, I should be able to create those "set up" and "tear down" steps from within the Hooks class with the same "success" (or fail) icons like in the test body.

Hello @dariuszkanicki I have created project with Playwright cucumber using JavaScript with allure integration. I have added hooks but not adding those hooks to the allure report. I have looked at your allure report and it is very promising . Could you please provide a sample repo that includes every file for the setup ? I would really appreciate it if you can help me.

At the moment, that's the temporary solution (not really user friendly):

By default, cucumber doesn't provide a way to change hook names. It's already introduced in the latest version of the cucumber protocol, but it is not yet available for Java. See cucumber/messages#73

As the solution, you can update the hook names using Allure Runtime API:

@Before("@hooks")
public void before() {
    Allure.getLifecycle().updateFixture(hook -> hook.setName("Human readable before name"));
    // do something
}

PS: Make sure you're using the latest version of allure-cucumber7-jvm (2.29.0 as of today) since I remember fixes were recently made for this particular use case.

That's a step forwards, thanks a lot for your hint.
Now I got better naming (see below), however, I still would like to be able to create "step like" lines within the setup/teardown area.
At the moment I'm using text attachments, which isn't really ideal, as I would like to have proper steps with "pass/fail" icon as well.
Is that somehow doable?

You can use Allure.step method for that:

Allure.step("opened browser " + page.getUrl());

However, it's better to create a separate discussion per request.

Thanks, that has solved everything I was looking for.
