java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError with Cucumber-JVM Project

Question

I am getting this error in java in when I try to run the project as JUNIT project. How ever I can run my feature when I go to my feature file and right click and run as Cucumber feature .

What should I do..?

This is the complete trace of the error:

This is my cucumberRunner file

import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber;

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@Cucumber.Options(
        format={"pretty","json:target"},
        features={"src/features"}
    )

public class CucumberRunner {


}

are you missing this import? import cucumber.api.CucumberOptions; which cucumber packages do you use? — Dude

Try this:

import org.junit.runner.RunWith; import cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber;

@RunWith(Cucumber.class)
@CucumberOptions(
    format={"pretty","json:target"},
    features={"src/features"}
)

public class CucumberRunner {


}

the "." in CucumberOptions is wrong
