Serenity test not running with Serenity Parameterized Runner

Question

I am trying to run serenity test with parameterized runner,

@RunWith(SerenityParameterizedRunner.class)
public class CloneViewTest {
   
    String val;
    public CloneViewTest(String testData) {
        val = testData;
    }

    protected Actor james = Actor.named("James");
    @Managed
    protected WebDriver driver;

    @Before
    public void jamesCanBrowseTheWeb() {
        james.can(BrowseTheWeb.with(driver));
    }

    @TestData
    public Collection<Object[]> testdata() {
        return Arrays.asList(new Object[][]{
                {"cats"},
                {"dogs"},
                {"ferrets"},
                {"rabbits"},
                {"canaries"}
        });
        
    }

    @Test
    public void should_be_able_to_clone_views() {
        james.attemptsTo(Open.browserOn().the(Column_dictionaryPage.class));

    }
}

The problem is whenever is run this test using mvn clean verify Test is successful but no test is run. Also log shows skipping tests

Also as shown in log no test is executed, failed or skipped. What could be the problem here?

Answer 1

You have most likely the wrong class name. Given you are using the default config, verify will run tests with patterns like *IT.java https://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-failsafe-plugin/examples/inclusion-exclusion.html

rename you class to CloneViewTestIT and try again.
