I'm using the below command to run one of test case using nightwatch, but getting the below error npm run test:cucumber -- --tag Seleniumeasy

[email protected] test:cucumber C:\Users****\Desktop\Automation

mkdirp report && cucumber-js --require cucumber.conf.js --require step-definitions --format node_modules/cucumber-pretty --format json:report/cucumber_report.json "--tag" "Seleniumeasy"

error: unknown option --tag' npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno 1 npm ERR! [email protected] test:cucumber:mkdirp report && cucumber-js --require cucumber.conf.js --require step-definitions --format node_modules/cucumber-pretty --format json:report/cucumber_report.json "--tag" "Seleniumeasy"` npm ERR! Exit status 1 npm ERR! npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] test:cucumber script. npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

I'm not particularly familiar with Cucumber, but it's probable that some dependency is missing. Try running it without the --tag argument. Also, make sure that cucumber is installed and it's the correct version. also, why is there an empty argument -- ? Maybe you ought to try it without that as well? – QualiT
@QualiT that is the format for running a particular test scenario using nightwatch – nevergiveup
Does it run for other scenarios? – QualiT
No, if I try to insert 'tag' option it throws that error – nevergiveup
Thanks for the help!.. I have solved it. – nevergiveup

This worked for me

npm run test:cucumber -- --tags "@Seleniumeasy"
