Tags & Filtering Tests

In cucumber it's possible to tag your tests to categorize them. These tags can be used to filter scenarios which can or cannot run.

@web and not @mobile

When applied to the following feature file, only the first test will run

Feature: Some Feature
    @web
    Scenario: A scenario we only care about on web
        Given .....
    
    @mobile
    Scenario: A scenario we only care about on mobile
        Given ...

To apply a filter to a test, add it as the environment variable CUCUMBER_FILTER

In Shell/Terminal

export CUCUMBER_FILTER="@web and not @mobile"

In Powershell

$env:CUCUMBER_FILTER = "@web and not @mobile"

In .env file

CUCUMBER_FILTER="@web and not @mobile"
