Automated tests on Cucumber-JUnit4

Quick start guide to integrate Automated tests in BrowserStack Accessibility Testing with Cucumber-JUnit4.

Prerequisites

  • You have an account with BrowserStack (even a free trial works) and can get the username and access key from Account & Profile.
  • You have a pre-existing Cucumber-JUnit4 test suite integrated with BrowserStack Automate.
  • Maven is installed on your machine, its environment variables are set, and its bin is added to the system path, $PATH.
  • Cucumber-Java v5+, Java v8+, Selenium v2.5+ (JSON Wire / W3C).

Integrate with Automated tests

Follow these steps to get started with adding Automated tests to your test suite:

The minimum version of browserstack-java-sdk that supports Automated tests with Cucumber-JUnit4 is 1.20.0.

Install the latest BrowserStack Java SDK using Maven Archetype

Run the following command on your terminal/command prompt to add browserstack-java-sdk dependency and browserstack.yml file in your project.

Modify your browserStack.yml config file

Automated tests mandatorily need the following configurations in the browserstack.yml file. Especially, ensure to set the accessibility flag as true at the end of the browserstack.yml file.

The projectName and buildName config must be static and not change across different runs of the same build. This is a deviation in approach as specified by BrowserStack Automate since Automated tests will automatically identify different build runs.

Accessibility testing will only run on Desktops (Mac & Windows) with Chrome 98 & above on Automate.

Run your test suite with Automated tests

You can continue running your tests as you have been previously. The command to run your tests using the BrowserStack SDK remains unchanged.
