How to address "The parameters 'tags' are missing or invalid:" error while running my runner class using maven command "mvn test"? - maven

Question

I am getting this error when I am trying to run the runner class by using mvn test command:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.github.temyers:cucumber-jvm-parallel-plugin:5.0.0:generateRunners (generateRunners) on project Demo_Automation: Invalid parameter. : Invalid parameter.
[ERROR] The parameters 'tags' are missing or invalid: [null]
I kept both my runner class and stepdefinitions in same folder:
src/test/java/setpfiles/runnerclass.java & stepdefinitionfiles
I added the required plugins and dependencies in my pom file but still facing the error.
These are the plugins in pom.xml
'<plugin>

Answer 1

Ensure that both the files:
runnerclass.java
stepdefinitionfiles
both are within /src/test.java
Additionally, within #CucumberOptions pass the location of the feature file as follows:
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import io.cucumber.junit.Cucumber;
import io.cucumber.junit.CucumberOptions;
#RunWith(Cucumber.class)
#CucumberOptions(
features = {"src/test/resources/AppFeatures/Order.feature"},
glue = {"stepdefinations"},
plugin = {"pretty"}
)
