Serenity-core: Serenity JVM Runner

[dineshbalajibingo]

I have a sample serenity project which run as expected when I run on maven. This is my runner class -https://github.com/dineshbalajibingo/SerenityBDD/blob/develop/src/test/java/runner/TestRunner.java

Now I need to make an executable JAR on this project (a trivial one). So I have a runner with main() method here -https://github.com/dineshbalajibingo/SerenityBDD/blob/develop/src/main/java/runner/TestRunner.java.

In POM.XML, I have added assembly plugin and it create a super fat jar which solves my issue.

Now when I run main method it run as cucumber tests. Is there a way I can run Serenity test instead of cucumber test when I run the JAR.

Hi, I am also facing a similar issue where I cannot invoke serenity runner class from cmd line when jar is created for project. Is there a way?

This is not trivial at all and not currently supported out-of-the-box.

[dineshbalajibingo]

Thanks for your reply @wakaleo Is there a work around available ? Any pointers you have on this ?

[wakaleo]

You would need to write a wrapper around the JUnit runner classes - have a look in the JUnit APIs on how to run JUnit programmatically.
