Whenever attempting to execute a protractor test using cucumber, a specific error message is displayed reading: "E/launcher - Process exited with error code 1"

Looking for some assistance. I seem to be stuck and can't pinpoint the issue.

Package.json

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "@cucumber/cucumber": "^7.0.0",
    "@serenity-js/core": "^2.25.7",
    "@serenity-js/cucumber": "^2.25.7",

    "@types/jasmine": "^3.6.9",
    "@types/node": "^14.14.37",
    "cucumber-html-reporter": "^5.3.0",
    "jasmine": "^3.7.0",
    "protractor-cucumber-framework": "^8.0.1",
    "ts-node": "^9.1.1",
    "typescript": "^4.2.3"
  }
}

tsconfig.json

{
"compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es6",
    "module": "commonjs",
    ... (additional settings)
},
"exclude": [
    "node_modules",
    "typescript"
]

}

UPDATE

I removed some options from cucumberOpts but now facing a different issue.

Answer №1

Clearly frustrated with the message: 

error: unknown option '--compiler'

Take a closer look at all instances of the word compiler to pinpoint why it doesn't belong

For example, experiment by running the code snippet below:

 cucumberOpts: {
        // compiler: "ts:ts-node/register", <-----------------
        require: [
          'build/features/util/hook.js',
          'build/features/stepDefinition/CalculatorDefinition.js'],
        format: 'json:./cucumberReports/cucumber_report.json',
        tags: false,
      },
