Cucumber Support Broken

[ayush]

lib/frameworks/cucumber.js references getFormatter() which seems to have been removed from cucumber.js and this results in protractor not working with latest (0.8.0+) cucumber.js

I believe this is PR'd in #2630. As a cucumber user, your feedback would be very valuable on that PR.

@NickTomlin @ayush I've replaced the PR'd code into my local cucumber.js library, and seems that it's not working, I can see this:

I'm still getting:

$ protractor conf.js

I've replaced the whole file! do I need to do something else?

Thanks!!

Can you try pulling in my revision locally instead of patching the file manually. From the stacktrace it appears that it's still picking up the old version of protractor.

  "protractor": "darrinholst/protractor#c437d756",

Hi,

I am also facing the same issue, below are the details
protractor ~2.5.1
cucumber ~ 0.9

exports.config = {
seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',

framework: 'cucumber',
specs: [
    '/features/*.feature'
],

cucumberOpts: {

    require: '/features/step_definitions/*.js',
    format: 'pretty'
},
capabilities: {
    'browserName': 'chrome'
},

jasmineNodeOpts: {
    defaultTimeoutInterval: 30000
}

};

Can some help be provided please

[darrinholst]

Yep, protractor support broke with this commit.

Also, there hasn't been a protractor release since the support was added for cucumber 0.8.0. So with protractor ~2.5.1 you'll need to use cucumber ~0.7.0.

[sjelin]

We'll be releasing a separate npm module for cucumber support in 8.x soon, and you guys will be able to use that.

Can someone direct me to some information about how to get protractor working with cucumber since the removal of cucumber support in protractor? It would be greatly appreciated.

[ocrosby]

Thank you, that's exactly what I was looking for. :D

I was able to fix the issue using a downgraded version of cucumber
