Get Feature file and Feature name in Before hook

See original GitHub issue

I’d like to be able the obtain the feature file name and Feature name in the @Before hook for logging purposes.

Something like the existing Scenario object:

    @Before("@Before")
    public void beforeScenario(Feature feature, Scenario scenario) {  
    }

There is a “scenarioId” in the scenario object, which contains both feature name and scenario name. Try using “scenario.getId()” to get them.

Sorry to resurrect this, but scenario.getId() does provides a sanitised version of the feature name, not the actual feature name. For instance, For a feature called “TestCase0.0 Basic” and a scenario “Basic”, scenario.getId() provides “testcase0.0-basic;basic” not “TestCase0.0 Basic;Basic”

However scenario.getName() does correctly return “Basic”

This issue has been tagged “Won’t Fix”. If possible, it would be great to get a explanation so we can understand why getting the Feature name would be a bad thing to do.
