CucumberJS

CucumberJS is a tool that runs automated tests written in plain language, making them easy for anyone on your team to understand. This accessibility promotes better communication, enhances collaboration, and builds trust within the team.

With the cucumberjs-qase-reporter you can publish the results of your automated test runs to your Qase project using the public API.

Installation

To integrate Qase Reporter in your CucumberJS setup, follow these steps:

Activate the CucumberJS App

To activate the app, go to the Apps section in your workspace, and click on ‘Activate’.

Switch to the ‘Access tokens’ tab, and create a new API token from here. Save the API token as we’ll need it for the next steps.

Add cucumberjs-qase-reporter to your project

To install and add the reporter as a development dependency, run the following in node project:

npm install -D cucumberjs-qase-reporter

Add a configuration file for the reporter

At the very least, the reporter will need two variables defined - your CucumberJS App’s Token, and the Qase Project you want to publish the results to:

// qase.config.json

{  
  "debug": false,  
  "testops": {  
    "api": {  
      "token": "<app-token>"  
    },  
    "project": "<project-code>",  
    "run": {  
      "complete": true  
    }  
  }  
}

Please refer to this article for guidance on how to find your Project code in Qase.

Let’s verify the integration

We’ll use a simple test to check if the results are being published to your Qase project.

Create two directory in the root of your project - features/ and step_definitions/ Add the following to these directories:

// features/example.feature

Feature: Test Qase integration.
  
  Scenario: A scenario with multiple steps  
    Given I have a step  
    And I have another step  
    When I do something  
    Then I expect something to happen

// step_definitions/example_steps.js

Feature: Test Qase integration.

  Scenario: A scenario with multiple steps  
    Given I have a step  
    And I have another step  
    When I do something  
    Then I expect something to happen

Now, let’s run the test, by executing the following command:

QASE_MODE=testops npx cucumber-js -f cucumberjs-qase-reporter features -r step_definitions

In the above command, we’re setting the reporter’s mode to ‘testops’ using the Environment variable QASE_MODE.
