Has anyone figured out a way to run the same cucumber scenario on multiple browsers/web drivers?

Question

I\'m using cucumber + capybara for some web automation testing. I\'d love to be able to wire up my own tag (something like @all_browsers before the scenario) and have it run aga

Answer 1

I do it the way that 'watir' project recommends. I use require parallel_cucumber in my Rakefile and then each Cucumber scenario gets its own parallel thread (up to 20 in this case):

task :run_cucumber do
  FileUtils.mkpath(ENV['OUT_DIR'])
  begin
    # cannot format report as HTML because of parallel forking
    threads = 20
    @result = system "parallel_cucumber features -o \"--format junit --out #{ENV['OUT_DIR']} --format pretty --tag @sauce\" -n #{threads}"
  ensure
    @success &= @result
  end
end

Then, the remaining part of your Cucumber project can be written as usual!! So simple! My full example here: https://github.com/djangofan/cuke-parallel-starter
