Cucumber Hooks work in KSE but not KRE

[gengland]

I have a simple Cucumber project in Katalon, which works fine, but if I run it from command line (KRE) while the scenarios/features are executed, the hooks (@before and @after) are being ignored. I can’t work out why this would be different from running the test suite in KSE?

Hi,

Thank you for sharing your problem. I found this article on your issue: https://katalon-inc.my.site.com/katalonhelpcenter/s/article/KRE-is-not-listening-to-the-Cucumber-Hook. Please take a look

Thanks! I moved the hooks class from the Test Listeners folder to the Include\scripts\groovy(default package) folder and now it magically works. Not entirely sure I understand why, but an easy fix at least!
