No base step listener registered when trying to run the tests from feature file

[ralves20]

Hi,

I've create a project with Serenity and cucumber 4, however, I'm not being able yet to run the tests from feature file (using IntelliJ idea) as I used to do with cucumber 2.
I can run the tests with I try direct from the CucumberTestSuite runner, but from feature file it isnt happening.
Is there an issue with serenity and cucumber 4 runner? Or am I doing something wrong?

This is the configuration of my CucumberTestRunner and the IntelliJ configuration:

Those are the versions that I'm using on the project
<serenity.cucumber.version>1.0.15</serenity.cucumber.version> <cucumber.version>4.2.0</cucumber.version> <webdriver.driver></webdriver.driver> <serenity.maven.version>2.0.45</serenity.maven.version>

I've tried to change versions with many different combinations, however it did not work also.

Does anyone have already had this issue?

Thanks!

I don't think this is supported for Cucumber 4 (I didn't think it still worked for Cucumber 2 as there was an IntelliJ issue, which I presume they have fixed).

Hi @wakaleo thank you very much!

I've follow the steps described on your blog
https://johnfergusonsmart.com/running-cucumber-serenity-feature-files-directly-intellij/
It used to work for me with cucumber 2.

As this is an IntelliJ issue I'll report it for them.

Thank you very much!

And just to provide a litlle bit more of details, these are the error messages that I'm getting

[main] WARN cucumber.runtime.SerenityBackend - It looks like you are running a feature using @RunWith(Cucumber.class) instead of @RunWith(CucumberWithSerenity.class). Are you sure this is what you meant to do?
[main] ERROR net.thucydides.core.steps.StepEventBus - No base step listener registered - this is generally a bad sign.
