Cucmber Feature file execution from Maven CLI - maven

Question

I am trying to execute a cucumber feature file from maven command line and facing the following issue - Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.14.1:test (default-test) on project Maven: No tests were executed!
The command I have used to execute is -
mvn -Dtest -Document.options="src/test/resources/maven_poc/excel_colors.feature:3"
However the step definitions file is executed successfully when executed from maven command prompt.
• mvn -Dtest=excel_color_stepdef test

Answer 1

Those don't look like valid maven commands. It's mvn test. And the system property is named cucumber.options. So mvn test -Dcucumber.options="src/test/resources/maven_poc/excel_colors.feature:3"

Answer 2

You should execute the java test class that references the cucumber. Something like:
#ContextConfiguration(loader = SpringBootContextLoader.class, classes = EligibilityApplication.class)
#RunWith(Cucumber.class)
#CucumberOptions(features = "src/test/resources/cucumber/eligibility/listpolicies/ListPolicies.feature", strict = true)
public class ListPoliciesTest {
}
And in the maven command you will use something like:
mvn -Dtest="src/test/java/../ListPoliciesTest.java"
