I've seen a lot topics about PhpStorm, but they actually got me more confused than I was before.
Basically, my file structure looks like this:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/1nFE2.png
(This is from the Yii 1.1.13 Demo App "Blog")
Now what I want to do is to have these two options:
Choose any of these files -> Right click -> Run (as PHPUnit).
bootstrap.php and phpunit.xml have to be loaded somehow, because
these specify where to load the (Yii) classes needed.
run all tests
within a directory (including subdirectories).
Could anyone point out how to edit the run configuration to achieve this? I already managed to run single tests but the configuration for them were more complicated than to just run them from command line.
Software used:
OS: Mac OS 10.7 Lion, PHPStorm 6, Yii 1.1.13 and PHPUnit 3.7.
You can set your PHPUnit configuration and bootstrap file in the project settings (PHP -> PHPUnit). Now whenever your run a single test, testcase, directory etc. PHPStorm will use your bootstrap.
If you are using Yii, your test classes probably extend from CDbTestCase or CTestCase. PHPStorm does not know that these are tests cases, therefore it doesn't run them with PHPUnit automatically as it should with other tests cases.
What you need to do is setup Yii Framework in your PHP Include Path. You can access this menu by going to External Libraries in the left column of PHPStorm where you see your files. Once you add Yii to your projects PHP Include Path you will see the test files icon changes and has a red and green play like icon.
This means that you will be able to run them and PHPStorm will use your PHPUnit configuration to do so.

I am trying to simplify the way we run cucumbers. We have a runner for each folder and we always change the runner in a run configuration that has some VM options set.
I can right click on a feature, select "Run feature :" but it doesn't run successfully without the parameters from the run configuration (one of them runs the tests with an in memory database for example)
Is there anyway I can add a default configuration so I can run them directly?
Run -> Edit Configurations
In the left-hand panel, there is a category called defaults. You can set the defaults to cucumber there. However, note that you might have to delete your previously existing configurations to get this to work with files you've already tried. They usually appear in a faded gray.
In addition, you could also add a runner class, which can run (a subset of) your tests from a testing framework. You can provide #CucumberOptions in this runner.
For my test (Play Framework 2.6 app) I want to use different configuration file.
For this, I've added the following line into build.sbt
javaOptions in Test += "-Dconfig.file=conf/application.test.conf"
When I run tests from sbt (sbt test), it works fine, reads the custom configuration file.
But when running tests from IntelliJ IDEA, it ignores this setting and uses application.conf file.
How to force IntelliJ to use this sbt setting?
You have to edit your intellij configurations.
To do that use this : https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/creating-and-editing-run-debug-configurations.html.
Once you're in the edit configurations page, add ScalaTest into the list of your configurations. Then add -Dconfig.file=conf/application.test.conf under VM Parameters.
Save, and done!
I wrote feature files in a project in IntelliJ according to the cucumber syntax. This files worked in another computer. I added the cucumber-java jar files and also installed the Gherkin and cucumber plugins, but still feature files aren't recognized as they should be.
What could be the problem?
So i use IntelliJ 2018
1) go to Preference
2)in open tab search "File Types" and search for text
3) in Text inside "Registred Patterns" delete "*.feature"
4) then search Cucumber Scenario and add "*.feature"
Steps I took to get .feature files recognized. I know that you've probably done this already, but it might help checking the steps again. If all fails, you could try to reinstall the plugins.
Created a new Java project
Created a new file with the .feature extension. Because the plugins were not installed, got the message "Plugins supporting *.feature files found." with the option to install the plugins
I didn't use this option because the suggested plugins were not what I wanted (check below image):
Instead, I've opened Settings > Plugins > Browse Repositories and searched for Cucumber for Java
When trying to install this plugin you will be required to accept the installation of Gherkin as well. Make sure that after accepting, both plugins are selected.
Restart IntelliJ and you should see the feature files recognized:
Hope it helps!
After installing plugin if you till face problem as i did, my feature files are not getting recognized because of groovy
therefore I manually set
File>>Settings>>Editor>>File Types
click "cucumber Scenario" and Click + to add .Feature in Recognize Patterns.
First make sure you have cucumber for java installed, if it is installed follow the below stpes,
1) Create a new feature file, like <test.feature> , after file creation a dialog box pops up
2) Select cucumber scenario in form the list and click Ok, there you GO.
Essentially two things are required to get cucumber feature recognized as expected type.
After adding cucumber-java dependency in pom.xml
You have to add Cucumber plugin also from >
Settings>Plugin>MarketPlace>Search for cucumber for Java and install it
This will also ask you to install Gherkin as a Dependency
Select Yes>> Restart ide
Now you have to change file type from settings >> to cucumber scenario.
Note: you wont be getting Cucumber scenario as recognized type until done above installation.
Select cucumber scenario and Add + wildcard for it as-*.feature
I made changes to Intellij Community Edition (ce). I can compile and run those changes from within the IntelliJ editor. That launches a second instance of IntelliJ ce which is running from classes containing my changes. What I want to do is just run those changes without having to first load the source, compile and run from within IntelliJ.
Netbeans made this easy by just producing an executable as a result of the build. With Intellij, it's not at all clear what has to be done. I have tried the following-
using the Run configuration Intellij itself uses to run the altered classes- this includes setting the working directory , main class, vm options and classpath. Actually, this doesn't work for reasons unknown to me.
on someone's suggestion, running dist.gant in build. This blows up with very many errors which are not helpful (no class def found errors which indicate some confusion on Intellij's part on classpaths somewhere)
Running WinLauncher.exe under bin gives the error message that it can't find VM options file (although it's in bin, (and also for good measure under bin/win with the other files which are co-located with vmoptions in the intellij directory structure for Intellij proper. )
ALl this is just harder than it should be. The solution is to provide an executable as a result of the build and place it in a predictable location.
Has anyone ever actually DONE what I am trying to do- make changes to the community source then use the resultant editor not as a project you're working with in IntelliJ but as the Intellij editor you're working through?

User60561 had the correct answer. Just to mop up the details, in artifacts, there is a compressed file (win.zip for Windows, mac.zip for Mac etc.). In order to run your snapshot, you have to unzip this archive (after which it will have the same name, minus the zip extension) then go into folder "bin". There you'll see two executables: idea.exe and idea64.exe, for 32 and 64 bit versions, respectively. Clicking on these runs your snapshot.
Adjusting contents of the files idea.exe.vmoptions and idea64.exe.vmoptions lets you set the VM parameters to suit yourself, typically people might want to give the VM more memory through the -Xmx value.
It seems straightforward:
To build the distribution archive of IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition, execute build.xml Ant build script in the root directory of the source code. The results of the build execution can be found at out/artifacts.
https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community#building
So download ant, and run ant in the directory that you have it stored in. Make sure to use the commandline to launch ant in order to make sure everything is working correctly.
Initially execute getPlugins.bat/sh, then:
Use update.bat/sh according to it's instructions
Or
Click on: Main Menu | Build | IntelliJ IDEA CE build
Copy content of intellij-community\out\deploy (lib, plugins folder) into existing IJ installation (sometimes it is better to delete existing folders if they contain older dependencies or when the installation was of Ultimate version)
Ok, so I'm working on a project using IntelliJ and trying to take advantage of its cucumber functionality. I've not worked with the java flavour of cucumber, but IntelliJ seems to want the step definition files in a specific location, relative to the feature files.
I found this: how to define step definitions location for cucumber in intelliJ 12 and other sources that pointed me to been able to add the "glue" property of my run configurations which tells cuke which package to find the step file. So I am at a point where I can run my tests via IDEA. BUT I need to set this every time I run a new test, as Ctrl+Alt+F10 or right click+run test will not start the test with this flag. Also, the ide support is screwed as IDEA doesn't know where the steps are, it doesn't auto complte or Ctrl+Click navigate to steps.
Is there a way to the the IDEA project to always look for steps in a given package both when running the tests and for its auto complete?
Creating self answer for others who might have this problem. My project did not have the steps marked as test source root, and although I DID do this, it was not until I closed and reopened my project that they were picked up. So a simple restart was my answer.
You can set the glue location globally by opening "Edit Configurations -> Defaults -> Cucumber Java -> Glue" and add the package names.
(IntelliJ 12.1.4)
Go File->Settings--> plugins
Install Cucumber for Java plugin
Then you can manage cucumber plugin as shown below
This should redirect you to step definition when you click your test.
Hope this helps
IntelliJ supports a plugin for Cucumber-Java/Groovy. Installing this plugin will enable the navigation from Steps mentioned in the feature file to the Step Definitions.
And after creating the Step Definition, navigation is easily possible
I go in EditConfiguration, Glue section and i put the path from the package above and the package where is your class for steps, ex:
CucumberFramework.stepsDefinitions
It is really nonsense :) but in in my case when IDEA refused to add steps definition automatically due to some plugins installed, e.g. Cucumber for Scala and suggested deleting them that i cant since i need them in other project. So, long story short, to add (Create step definition) you need to create Class in 'glue' dir and some fake Cucumber implementation, build one more time and it resolved my issue.
Background:
When I use IDEA 2018.2
And Java 8
And Cucumber info.cukes:cucumber-java:1.2.4
#When("^I created a Class and put there fake step implementation$")
#And("^I run gradle build one more time :)$")
#Then("^This Class will be able for me from the feature file by ALT+ENTER as usual$")
#And("^It resolved my issue when I was not able to automatically generate step definition$")
