Scenario: Test login with valid credentials
Given User navigates to login page
When User enters username and password
And Click on login button
And User is navigated to homepage

Known issue exists for BDD i think…

Thank you. Added but still getting same error.

import com.kms.katalon.core.context.TestSuiteContext
import com.kms.katalon.core.cucumber.keyword.CucumberBuiltinKeywords as CucumberKW

class Listener {
/**
* Executes before every test case starts.
* @param testCaseContext related information of the executed test case.
*/
@BeforeTestCase
def sampleBeforeTestCase(TestCaseContext testCaseContext) {
CucumberKW.GLUE = [‘LoginSteps.groovy’]
}
}

kazurayam · October 26, 2024, 10:12pm

You wrote wrong.

You need to create a package and you want to move the LoginSteps class into the package, for example package1.LoginSteps.
The CucumberKW.GLUE requires a list of the package names, not the file name of Groovy sources. For example,

    CucumberKW.GLUE = ['package1']

It seems you don’t understand what “package” in Java/Groovy is. If you want to learn, have a look at this article or the Groovy language documentation.

karnnn · October 28, 2024, 3:09am

Thank you. But I am not able to create package on free version. It only allows me to create new Step Definition under default package. How do I reference default package in GLUE?

kazurayam · October 28, 2024, 3:51am

I would pass this question to Katalon, @Elly_Tran .

Let me restate the issue.

As of v9.0 where the version of bundled JDK was upgraded from JDK8 to JDK17, all Cucumber users are asked to follow the instruction at Work with BDD feature files in Katalon Studio | Katalon Docs — they have to create a package for their Cucumber Step Definition files.
As of v9.1, Katalon changed the license scheme, so that creating packages is now an Enterprise feature. A user of Katalon Studio Free is no longer qualified to create a package for the Cucumber feature files.
Therefore, as a side-effect of the 2 changes above, users of Katalon Studio Free are no longer capable of BDD testing using the Cucumber library. If you want to perform BDD testing, you have to purchace an Enterprise license.

Is it correct?
