I am Benjamin Bischoff, a test automation engineer at trivago N.V. in Düsseldorf, Germany, writing and talking about software development, clean code principles and testing.
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.
