I'm trying to add Step annotation to the page class but it gets the failure:
package com.pages.login_page;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.How;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.PageFactory;
public class LoginPageElements {
private WebDriver driver;
#FindBy(how = How.ID, using = "test")
private WebElement logonID;
#FindBy(how = How.ID, using = "test")
private WebElement logonPassword;
#FindBy(how = How.ID, using = "test")
private WebElement logonSubmit;
public LoginPageElements(WebDriver driver)
{
this.driver = driver;
PageFactory.initElements(driver,this);
}
#Step("login step") //step is underlined on this place with can't resolve symbol Step error
public void Login_as(String sUsername, String sPassword) {
logonID.sendKeys(sUsername);
logonPassword.sendKeys(sPassword);
logonSubmit.click();
}
#Step error example
the same problem I'm having with #Attachments while implementing it inside of MytestListener class:
see the screenshot
Please help me to figure out the problem.

Answer 1

I noticed that you are using out dated version of Allure. Here is correct import
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.qameta.allure/allure-testng -->
<dependency>
<groupId>io.qameta.allure</groupId>
<artifactId>allure-testng</artifactId>
<version>2.6.0</version>
</dependency>
With Allure 2 you do not need to configure Listener, but you need to configure AspectJ instead. Here you can find example for Maven + TestNG: https://docs.qameta.io/allure/#_testng

Answer 2

THE PROBLEM was with the idea community version. It appears that it doesn't support aspectj plugin. If someone will struggle with same issue please tale a look: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/java-compiler.html

Answer 3

I my case the problem was in <scope>test</scope>.
I removed it from dependancy:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.qameta.allure</groupId>
<artifactId>allure-testng</artifactId>
<version>LAST_VERSION</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
and #Step annotation starts to be recognized.
