Dcucumber.options, how to have multiple tags

Question

I am trying run cucumber tests using maven with following command

mvn test -Dcucumber.options="--tag @debug1"

This command works fine, however if i try something like following, i get error

mvn test -Dcucumber.options="--tag @debug1 @debug2"

Is there a way to pass in multiple tag names with cucumber run-time options?

Answer 1

To run scenarios with @debug1 and @debug2:

mvn test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @debug1 --tags @debug2"

To run scenarios with @debug1 or @debug2:

mvn test -Dcucumber.options="--tags @debug1,@debug2"

Answer 2

Little late to the party, but I am using something like:

mvn test -D tags="debug1 and debug2"

I am on Cucumber 2.4.

The @ symbol is optional. You can use a tags Maven property. And you can use boolean logic to hook up multiple tags - official docs.

Reduces the amount of typing little bit.
