[Cucumber] How to ignore certains scenarios in a feature

[sai krishna]

Hi All,

I have couple of features which holds about ~ 500 scenarios, on running a
particular feature which holds 20 scenarios, i would want to ignore running
certain scenarios in that feature. How can i do that?

I used @ignore tag on top of the scenario, but when i run my test that
scenarios with @ignore tag also gets executed

Regards,
Sai

Stick an @ignore tag on the ones you want to ignore and tell Cucumber to
run scenarios that do not have the @ignore tag:

--tags ~@ignore

More details here: https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/wiki/Tags

BTW, 500 scenarios in a feature file sounds like a terrible idea. Are any
of the business stakeholders reading those, or did your team fall into the
Cucumber test trap? http://tooky.co.uk/the-cucumber-test-trap/

Thanks Aslask, that worked for me.

--tags @clean --tags ~@ignore

I was able to run only the tags with clean and ignore the ones with @ignore
tag.

BTW, i have 500 scenarios in 14 features.

That sounds much better - I misread you.
