I am using the Java implementation of Selenium WebDriver ( version 2.53.0 ) to run some automated tests against a web application. Tests are recorded in a behavior testing format using the Java Cucumber implementation ( version 1.2.3 ). I use Maven ( version 3.3.9 ) to import all my dependencies, as well as to create and run tests. Tests are organized into different categories using cucumber tags. For example, I can run one category of tests with @JohnnyBravo tags from the command line using the following commands:
cd path_to_Maven_POM_file mvn clean test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @JohnnyBravo"
After some research, I found out that you can use the Maven SureFire plugin to run failed tests again by adding " -Dsurefire.rerunFailingTestsCount=2 " to the Maven command above according to this link . Then I tried to repeat this category of tests using the command below, ensuring that some of them would fail, in order to check whether they would be repeated or not:
mvn clean test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @JohnnyBravo" -Dsurefire.rerunFailingTestsCount=2
Unfortunately, failed tests did not resume. What am I doing wrong here?
