I am a test automation engineer at trivago N.V. (ex Senior Automation Engineer at Ubisoft Düsseldorf) writing and talking about software development and testing.
So far, I have published two pretty successful open source projects along with a few that are flying under the radar. In this post, I will share what I learned along the way with one of them.
I am featured in the first edition of the freshly started Cucumber Community Newsletter!
The online version can be read online here.
At trivago, we use a Cucumber based framework for end-to-end tests of our most important web applications. Cucumber stores test result as JSON files which can be turned into human-readable test reports.
Up until now we used the widespread cucumber-reporting Maven plugin.
At trivago, we are using an in-house developed Selenium framework based on cucumber-jvm to run automated browser tests. As the test suite increased (the time exceeded 45 minutes for a full run), we were looking for ways to move away from sequential towards parallel execution.
