CLI: godog

How to run tests using godog CLI.

Description

Godog CLI is program that knows how to run tests written with gherkin/cucmber syntax. Under the hood it uses GoLang.

Usages

Project’s Makefile contains command that demonstrates usage of godog CLI to run tests:

make tests-using-host

To run tests directly by godog CLI try:

godog run features/

This mode run all tests from features/ directory synchronously.

To run all tests from features/ asynchronously add --concurrency flag with desired value. General rule of thumb is that value should not be greater than number of CPUs on host machine. It is also beneficial to add --format=progress flag to change display of format to more convenient for asynchronous mode.

godog run features/ --format=progress --concurrency=2

Tests also can be run selectively simply by passing path to them

godog run features/path/to/your/test.feature

If you mark few scenarios or features with any tag (for example: smoke), you can run them by

godog run --tags=smoke
