Serenity-core: After updating to serenity 1.7.4 from 1.5.3, tagging broken

[dgracehmh]

Hi,
I updated serenity 1.5.3 -> 1.7.5 and serenity-cucumber 1.6.4 and my tagging is broken.
I have numerous feature files all tagged with some Scenarios also tagged.

I run via maven
mvn clean verify -P int -P docker-parallel -Dcucumber.options="--tags @TeacherDashboardResources"

This all worked fine before the update, it ran what i wanted and omitted what i didn't want to run.
After the updated it still runs @TeacherDashboardResources but i get these errors for everything not matching @TeacherDashboardResources
XXX Created runtime cucumber.runtime.RuntimeOptions@5a1de7fb [2017-11-17 12:08:02:847] [main] INFO Serenity - Test Suite Started: Teacher Generate Reports [INFO] Running com.hmhco.hmof.testsuites.TeacherGenerateReportsTestSuite [ERROR] Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0 s <<< FAILURE! - in com.hmhco.hmof.testsuites.TeacherGenerateReportsTestSuite [ERROR] com.hmhco.hmof.testsuites.TeacherGenerateReportsTestSuite Time elapsed: 0 s <<< ERROR! java.lang.NullPointerException

Serenity reports looks fine. Maven build fails though with the errors above.

Thanks for raising this. It sounds like it could be related to the Cucumber 2.x upgrade. I will take a look.

I can't reproduce this, could you provide a sample project?

[dgracehmh]

Sure, here you go - https://github.com/dgracehmh/serenitysample
To repro run mvn clean verify -P int -P local -Dcucumber.options="--tags @Sample1"

[wakaleo]

Thanks for that. It is actually an issue with the serenity-cucumber library - should be fixed in the next release.

Fixed in serenity-cucumber 1.6.5

Thanks for fixing that @wakaleo. I see a release has been done for serenity cucumber - https://github.com/serenity-bdd/serenity-cucumber/releases/tag/v1.6.5 but it is not on maven yet - https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.serenity-bdd/serenity-cucumber - How long does it normally take?

[wakaleo]

It should be available on central within 24 hours.

Thanks, just wanted to let you know as that release looks like it was made 4 days ago - https://github.com/serenity-bdd/serenity-cucumber/releases/tag/v1.6.5 - thought something might be up. Cheers!
