This Cucumber-JVM plugin generates JUnit XML with proprietary modifications to support Zephyr.

Warning: This plugin outputs additional XML elements that are incompatible with widely used XML schemas that validate the generated XML:

• jenkins-junit.xsd
• various other schemas

Adding these extra XML elements in the official JUnitXmlFormatter would cause validation errors for all users using one of the validation schemas above.

For this reason this plugin is a fork of the JUnitXmlFormatter. It has been forked from Cucumber-JVM 4.2.6.

Any tags in the feature file starting with @JIRA_ will be outputted to the XML.

For example:

@JIRA_XYZ-1 @JIRA_XYZ-1 @smoke-test
Feature: something

This will output the following snippet in the generated XML

<requirements>
  <requirement>AltID_XYZ-1</requirement>
  <requirement>AltID_XYZ-2</requirement>
</requirements>

The plugin will replace @JIRA_ with AltID_ in the generated XML.

@ tags in the feature file which are not recognised as requirements (see above), will be inserted into the XML results file as tag nodes.

For example:

@JIRA_XYZ-1 @JIRA_XYZ-1 @smoke-test
Feature: something

This will collect the first two tags as requirements and the last @ tag will be a tag for the zephyr tescase.

Here is an example of a single tag in the XML file:

<tags>                          ---//  tags: parent element
<tag>Feature1</tag>             ---// tag : child element
</tags>  

Here is an example of multiple tags in the XML file:

<tags>
<tag>BVT1</tag>
<tag>BVT2</tag>
</tags>

Add the dependency to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.smartbear</groupId>
    <artifactId>zephyr-xml-formatter</artifactId>
    <version>7.21.1.1</version>
</dependency>

Add the following to your JUnit class:

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(plugin = {"com.smartbear.ZephyrXMLFormatter:target/zephyr.xml"})

This plugin is maintained by the SmartBear Zephyr team.

• Update the version number in pom.xml.
• Update CHANGELOG.md to reflect the changes since the previous release.
• Commit your files.
• Tag the master branch with the version number (e.g. vX.Y.Z).
• Create the release branch in the form release/vX.Y.Z to automatically publish.
