Hey folks. I find out something new about cucumber-jvm every day. If you want something that is executed after all of the tests have finished you must use the Java shutdownHook. It’s simple really you add in a block of code that can run right before the JVM quits. I know I know.

Hello everybody. I would like to show you a gem today that I found out. Apparently there is no easy way to get to the name of an executing cucumber scenario in cucumber-jvm You can try something like that: @After //this is cucumbers @Afters public static void afterExecution(Scenario scenario) { logger.log("The status of the test is: " + scenario.getStatus()); } But that isn’t giving you too much now is it?

I went to school in Oroszlany, my home town in Hungary....
