Error: Please specify non-empty path to Cucumber package
Answered
When build with Intelij: Used to get error "Please specify non-empty path to Cucumber package".
When tried to build with command prompt with command "gradle cucumber" it build successful.
Below are the details:
Feature File:
Feature: Is it Friday yet?
Everybody wants to know when it's Friday
Scenario: Sunday isn't Friday
Given today is Sunday
When I ask whether it's Friday yet
Then I should be told "Nope"
Step Definition File:
package hellocucumber;
import cucumber.api.PendingException;
import cucumber.api.java.en.Given;
import cucumber.api.java.en.When;
import cucumber.api.java.en.Then;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;
class IsItFriday {
static String isItFriday(String today) {
return "Nope";
}
}
public class MyStepdefs {
private String today;
private String actualAnswer;
@Given("^today is Sunday$")
public void today_is_Sunday() {
this.today = "Sunday";
}
@When("^I ask whether it's Friday yet$")
public void i_ask_whether_is_s_Friday_yet() {
this.actualAnswer = IsItFriday.isItFriday(today);
}
@Then("^I should be told \"([^\"]*)\"$")
public void i_should_be_told(String expectedAnswer) {
assertEquals(expectedAnswer, actualAnswer);
}
}
Above i have mentioned output with - Intellij & command prompt.
Build.gradle code:
configureBuild(project, ['java', 'spring-boot', 'dependencies', 'publish', 'cf'])
configurations {
cucumberRuntime {
extendsFrom testRuntime
}
}
dependencies {
implementation project(':api')
testCompile 'io.cucumber:cucumber-java:2.4.0'
}
task cucumber() {
dependsOn assemble, compileTestJava
doLast {
javaexec {
main = "cucumber.api.cli.Main"
classpath = configurations.cucumberRuntime + sourceSets.main.output + sourceSets.test.output
args = ['--plugin', 'pretty', '--glue', 'gradle.cucumber', 'src/test/resources']
}
}
}
Please help me how to test/ run the features successfully.

Hello,
Works fine on my machine with test project. Could you please share project example for investigation?
I am not sure whether i am authorized to share the project or not.
However, if you can share your project if possible to my email id hgupta.99@gmail.com.
or any screen shot of command prompt or Intellij would also be helpful.
I used this example: https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm/tree/master/examples/java-gradle and your code.
I downloaded the project & did the same, but no luck. Still getting the same error. You can see the error message at the bottom left side of screen shot.
Could you please attach screenshot showing your Run configuration?
Wrong configuration is used. It should be "Cucumber java", not "Cucumber.js". Please try to manually create proper configuration or disabe "Cucumber js" plugin, so proper default configuration will be suggested.
Thanks.
Can you please share the screenshot of your project's configuration.
I am referring from : https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/run-debug-configuration-cucumber-java.html. I am not sure which all options i need to fill.
I started getting this error:

I used default configuration:
Now, I am getting :
Error running 'Feature: test': Command line is too long. Shorten command line for Feature: test or also for Cucumber java default configuration.
