Cucumber-js Nightwatch.js Integration Example

This example is for using Nightwatch.js(V2) with Cucumber-js.

Motivation

It uses the Cucumber-js CLI runner itself, instead of nightwatch CLI. See Github discussion.

It is different with nightwatchjs/cucumberjs-boilerplate, which uses Nightwatch.js CLI and build-in Cucumber test runner.

Getting Started

You can fork this example as a start point.

This example uses TypeScript, but the cucumber & nightwatch configuration can be same if you are only using JavaScript.

Usage

npm run test

Chose a browser

NIGHTWATCH_BROWSER=chrome npm run test

Pass cucumber-js Options

npm run test -- --tags "@google" --retry 2 --parallel 4
