I am using JBehave for writing BDD Integration tests.
Problem: JBehave clears state of objects (instance variables) while
executing individual steps
Code: StepDefinition:
public class StepDefs {
private String str;
@Given("step represents a precondition to an $event")
public void given(String event){
str=event;
System.out.println("Given: "+str);
}
@When("step represents the occurrence of the event")
public void when() {
System.out.println("When: "+str);
}
@Then("step represents the outcome of the event")
public void then() {
}}

Narrative:In order to communicate effectively to the business some
functionalityAs a development team
I want to use Behaviour-Driven Development
Scenario: A scenario is a collection of executable steps of different
typeGiven step represents a precondition to an eventWhen step represents the
occurrence of the eventThen step represents the outcome of the event
JBehaveJUnitTestRunner:
@RunWith(JUnitReportingRunner.class)public class JBehaveTestsRunner extends
JUnitStories {
private CrossReference xref = new CrossReference();
public JBehaveTestsRunner() {
configuredEmbedder().embedderControls().doGenerateViewAfterStories(true).doIgnoreFailureInStories(true)
.doIgnoreFailureInView(true).doVerboseFailures(true);//
.useThreads(1);
}
@Override
public Configuration configuration() {
Properties viewResources = new Properties();
viewResources.put("decorateNonHtml", "true");
return new MostUsefulConfiguration().useStoryLoader(new
LoadFromClasspath(this.getClass().getClassLoader()))
.useStoryReporterBuilder(
new StoryReporterBuilder().withFormats(Format.HTML,
Format.CONSOLE, Format.STATS)
.withViewResources(viewResources).withFailureTrace(true).withFailureTraceCompression(false)
.withCrossReference(xref));
}
@Override
public InjectableStepsFactory stepsFactory() {
return new ScanningStepsFactory(configuration(), "stepdefs");
}
@Override
public List<String> storyPaths() {
StoryFinder finder = new StoryFinder();
return
finder.findPaths(CodeLocations.codeLocationFromClass(getClass()),
Arrays.asList("**/Simple.story"), null);
}}
Actual Output:
Processing system properties {}Using controls
EmbedderControls[batch=false,skip=false,generateViewAfterStories=true,ignoreFailureInStories=true,ignoreFailureInView=true,verboseFailures=true,verboseFiltering=false,storyTimeouts=300,threads=1,failOnStoryTimeout=false]

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (freemarker.cache).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.Reports view generated
with 3 stories (of which 1 pending) containing 2 scenarios (of which 1 pending)
As can be seen in the output: In the Given step I am accepting a string
argument which i am initializing it to instance variable "str", whilst
printing the value to console I can see it successfully. But when the
second step i.e When step executes I am getting null as the value of
instance variable "str". How can I make JBehave to not clear state of
objects after executing individual steps?
