· Create class with testcase ‘@Test’

· Convert the testcase to generate test suite by

- Right Click (testclass)->TESTN->convert to TESTNG

· Run testng.xml

- Right click (anywhere in testng.xml)->Run As->TestNG suite

- Refresh the project, you will see allure-results folder in project level

Step 4: Use run command to generate allure reports

- To view results right click (allure-results)folder->properties

- Click Location->show in system explorer

- Open command prompt from the location by typing cmd in that path

- Now your command prompt will look like this

- Now, type command : allure serve

Now you can view the allure results

How to add Allure report in Cucumber Framework:

Step1: Create a maven project and Add maven dependency

· Go to https://mvnrepository.com/ and search ,add following dependencies in pom.xml under<dependencies> </dependencies> tag and save the pom.xml

Tip: Select cumber-java and Allure-cucumber same version ,here for example both belongs to same version 7

1. Cucumber-java

<groupId>io.cucumber</groupId>

<artifactId>cucumber-java</artifactId>

</dependency>

2.Allure-cucumber 7

<groupId>io.qameta.allure</groupId>

<artifactId>allure-cucumber7-jvm</artifactId>

</dependency>

· Update the maven project

Step2: Update the TestRunner file (TestRunner.java)

· Add the below cod in plugin setup

plugin= {"pretty","io.qameta.allure.cucumber7jvm.AllureCucumber7Jvm"}

Step3: Create a feature file and step definition file and run the testrunner.java file

· Create a feature file

· Next step is to Create a step definition file for the feature file written

· Run the Project->TestRunner.java ->maven test

- Refresh the project, you will see allure-results folder in project level

Step 4: Use run command to generate allure reports

- To view results right click (allure-results)folder->properties

- Click Location->show in system explorer

- Open command prompt from the location by typing cmd in that path

- Now your command prompt will look like this

- Now, type command : allure serve

Now you can view the allure results in Cucumber Framework

- An Extent Report provides a rich set of features, including interactive charts, screenshots, and logs.
Step1: Create a maven project and Add maven dependency
·         Go to https://mvnrepository.com/ and search ,add following dependencies in pom.xml under<dependencies> </dependencies> tag and save the pom.xml
ExtentReports Cucumber7 Adapter
ExtentReports Cucumber7 Adapter

<dependency>
    <groupId>tech.grasshopper</groupId>
    <artifactId>extentreports-cucumber7-adapter</artifactId>
    <version>1.14.0</version>
</dependency>
·         Update the maven project

Step2: Adding extent.properties and extent-config.xml file in src/test/resources
·         Create a new file extent.properties with below code

extent.reporter.spark.start=true
extent.report.spark.config=src/test/resources/extent-config.xml
extent.reporter.spark.out=test-output/SparkReport/
basefolder.name=reports
basefolder.datetimepattern=d-MMM-YY HH-mm-ss
screenshot.dir=screenshot/
screenshot.rel.path=../../screenshot/
extent.reporter.pdf.start=true
extent.reporter.pdf.out=test output/PdfReport/ExtentPdf.pdf

·         Save extent.properties file
·         Create another file extent-config.xml with below code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<theme>standard</theme>

<protocol>https</protocol>

<documentTitle>Extent</documentTitle>

<reportName>Sample DSAlgo Automation Report</reportName>

<testViewChartLocation>bottom</testViewChartLocation>

<![CDATA[

$(document).ready(function() {

});

]]>

</scripts>

<![CDATA[

]]>

</styles>

</configuration>

</extentreports>

· Save extent-config.xml file.

· Update the maven project

Step3: Update the TestRunner file (TestRunner.java)

· Add the below cod in plugin setup

plugin={"pretty","io.qameta.allure.cucumber7jvm.AllureCucumber7Jvm", "com.aventstack.extentreports.cucumber.adapter.ExtentCucumberAdapter:"}

· Save the TestRunner.java

· Run the Project->TestRunner.java -> maven test

· Refresh the project and you will see a folder reports with datetime stamp attached to it according to the format specified in extent.properties file .
