黄瓜在eclipse文件夹中而不是当前项目文件夹中搜索.properties文件

Question

I am able to read a file using its absolute path, but would like to use a relative path.

Cucumber is trying to search my resource files in Eclipse directory, not in project directory.

example:

File f = new File("./src/values.properties");

input = new FileInputStream(f);

values.properties file is being searched in eclipse folder, not the in project folder.

Is there a way we can configure resource lookup path in cucumber-java ?

Answer 1

This is an Eclipse issue, rather than a cucumber-jvm one.

When running your test in your IDE, you can specify the execution directory. In Eclipse Luna, this can be done by going to the Run Configurations... menu, and for your cucumber test, go into the Arguments tab, and set the Working directory by select “Other:” and typing in the directory in which you want to run the test.

Alternatively, you can add the property file to your classpath in the IDE, and load it using:

input = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("values.properties");
