Using cucumber with feature files

If you want to use feature files, you'll have to install two dependencies:

@badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor
@cypress/webpack-preprocessor

Then you can add the cucumberPreprocessor to the setupNodeEvents function. It's important to note that this function has to be the first plugin in your setupNodeEvents function! Otherwise the tests will fail (note that you'll have to use await to use this plugin):

import { cucumberPreprocessor } from '@dhis2/cypress-plugins'

// ...

async function setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
    await cucumberPreprocessor(on, config)

    // ...
}

// ...

You'll also have to provide a custom specPattern to tell cypress that it should look for .feature files instead of .js files.

So in the e2e object in the payload passed to defineConfig, you can add the following entry:

// ...

module.exports = defineConfig({
    // ...
    e2e: {
        // ...
        specPattern: 'cypress/e2e/**/*.feature',
    },
})
