Hello,

I just wanted to know if there was a plan to release the version 5 soon. The performance improvements on the step collections are quite interesting.

Thanks,

This is probably a user misconfiguration on my side but I'd appreciate if you could help me resolve it.

I have a couple of jUnit test classes, each of them containing a single @Test method that instantiates a jBehave JupiterStories and manually invokes its run() method (see below example).

I'm using IntelliJ as IDE to develop and run those tests. The problem is the following:

1. I run one of the tests that contains a story called "Generic Allocation Task E2e". The story fails due to production code bug and hence - the jUnit test fails.
2. Without cleaning up the target/jbehave folder I run another test that contains a story called "Generic Allocation Task Already Executed". The story succeeds, however, the jUnit test itself fails because the story from 1. is still in the target/jbehave/view/report.html report and jBehave seems to report a failure.

How do I fix this? It's very misleading that my GenericAllocationTaskAlreadyExecutedStoryTest test is shown as failing in IntelliJ when in fact it's another test from an older execution that caused it to fail. Is there a configuration to fix that?

public class GenericAllocationTaskAlreadyExecutedStoryTest extends RequestBaseTest {

    @Test
    public void runStory() {
        new GenericAllocationTaskAlreadyExecutedStory().run();
    }

    public class GenericAllocationTaskAlreadyExecutedStory extends JupiterStories {
        @Override
        public Configuration configuration() {
            Class<? extends Embeddable> embeddableClass = this.getClass();
            Properties viewResources = new Properties();
            viewResources.put("decorateNonHtml", "true");
            // Start from default ParameterConverters instance
            ParameterConverters parameterConverters = new ParameterConverters();
            // factory to allow parameter conversion and loading from external
            // resources (used by StoryParser too)

            return new MostUsefulConfiguration()
                    .useStoryControls(new StoryControls().doDryRun(false).doSkipScenariosAfterFailure(false))
                    .useStoryLoader(new LoadFromClasspath(embeddableClass))
                    .useStoryPathResolver(new UnderscoredCamelCaseResolver())
                    .useStoryReporterBuilder(
                            new StoryReporterBuilder()
                                    .withCodeLocation(CodeLocations.codeLocationFromClass(embeddableClass))
                                    .withSurefireReporter(new SurefireReporter(embeddableClass))
                                    .withDefaultFormats().withPathResolver(new ResolveToPackagedName())
                                    .withViewResources(viewResources).withFormats(CONSOLE, HTML)
                                    .withFailureTrace(true)

                    .useParameterConverters(parameterConverters);
        }

        @Override
        public InjectableStepsFactory stepsFactory() {
            return new InstanceStepsFactory(configuration(), getSteps());
        }

        private List<Object> getSteps() {
            StepContext context = new StepContext(
                    GenericAllocationTaskAlreadyExecutedStoryTest.this);
            return Arrays.asList(
                    new ComputeAllocationSteps(context),
                    new NetworkAllocationSteps(context),
                    new FlavorAllocationSteps(context),
                    new GenericAllocationTaskSteps(context));
        }
        
        @Override
        public List<String> storyPaths() {
            return new StoryFinder().findPaths(CodeLocations.codeLocationFromClass(this.getClass()),
                    String.format("**/%s", "generic_allocation_task_already_executed.story"), "");
        }

        @Override
        public Embedder injectedEmbedder() {
            Embedder embedder = super.injectedEmbedder();
            embedder.useMetaFilters(Arrays.asList("-Ignored"));
            return embedder;
        }
    }
}

guava dependemcy is optional, it's needed only if org.jbehave.core.embedder.executors.DirectExecutorService is used. All other usages of guava dependeny are prohibited in order to keep dependency tree clean.

I'm trying to subscribe to the user mailing list here: https://jbehave.org/mailing-lists.html

... but I don't find any jbehave groups at https://groups.google.com/

How do I subscribe to the users group? I have some questions that I'd like to ask there :)

I'm getting some odd exception in one of my stories. Using jBehave 5.0

This is how my configuration looks like:

@Override
    public Configuration configuration() {
        Class<? extends Embeddable> embeddableClass = this.getClass();
        // Start from default ParameterConverters instance
        ParameterConverters parameterConverters = new ParameterConverters();
        // factory to allow parameter conversion and loading from external
        // resources (used by StoryParser too)

        return new MostUsefulConfiguration()
                .useStoryControls(new StoryControls().doDryRun(false).doSkipScenariosAfterFailure(false))
                .useStoryLoader(new LoadFromClasspath(embeddableClass))
                .useStoryPathResolver(new UnderscoredCamelCaseResolver())
                .useStoryReporterBuilder(
                        new StoryReporterBuilder()

                                .withDefaultFormats().withPathResolver(new ResolveToPackagedName())
                                .withFormats(CONSOLE, TXT)
                                .withFailureTrace(true)
                                .withFailureTraceCompression(true))
                .useParameterConverters(parameterConverters);
    }

I'm not getting this for any of my other stories and I don't understand what's so special about this story in particular. It's almost identical to the other ones. Any help will be appreciated...

I am trying to run this Thread examples locally. Getting below error.
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.jbehave.examples.threads.steps.ThreadsSteps cannot be cast to class org.jbehave.core.Embeddable (org.jbehave.examples.threads.steps.ThreadsSteps is in unnamed module of loader org.jbehave.core.embedder.EmbedderClassLoader @12b5454f; org.jbehave.core.Embeddable is in unnamed module of loader org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.realm.ClassRealm @70325d20)

I am following same for my project , still same issue,

I have one outline scenario with 2 samples, the surefire xml report only contains the outline scenario. And the status of the testcase is misleading , especially when one of the samples is failed while the other is passed.
