I want to run cucumber feature file from java code.

currently we are running form JUnit Runner

package com.compareglobalgroup.testscript;

import cuc         


        

Answer 1

Call the static main method of Main class in the package cucumber.api.cli that corresponds to running cucumber from the command line.

public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {

    Main.main(new String[]{"-g", "classpath to step definition file", "Full path to feature file"});

          // My stepdefinition is inside java package at cucumber.sample.test
          // My feature file is inside src/test/resources/features/featurefile.feature

        } 

For additional parameters like tags or plugin use "-t","@Tags". Important the feature file path has to be the last option.

BTW - In the your example you are running with a TestNG cucumber runner.
