Using above dependencies I am able to generate the 'Cucumber jvm report'.
Also I have written the code in java, for attaching the screen shot to report, I am taking screenshot only when the scenario get fail.
#After
public void CloseBrowser(Scenario scenario) {
if (scenario.isFailed()) {
System.out.println("Scenario is Failled Taking ScreenShot...!!!");
TakesScreenshot ts = (TakesScreenshot) driver;
byte[] screenshot = ts.getScreenshotAs(OutputType.BYTES);
scenario.embed(screenshot, "image/png");
}
}
I am not sure is there anything I am missing, but screen shot is not attaching to the report.
The default html report which is generated by cucumber is displaying the screen shot.
can some one please help me on this.
Thanks.

Answer 1

Can you check the screenshot are embedded on the After Hooks steps on the html report?, This 5.3.0 version is attaching the screenshot at Hooks step as we have our logic in #After hooks. I also first struggled and later noticed this.
