how to use yaml file with qaf as i don't use properties in my project

Question

I am using cucumber-testng framework in my Project. Now i am trying to integrate with QAF to use csv file as a data provider. I don't use properties file instead i use yaml file

I want to achieve like this with QAF

Feature:

@device_Android @Test Meta-data: {"dataFile":"resources/data/logintestdata.csv"}

Scenario Outline: 001-test Given test

my code:

TestNG xml-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">
<suite name="QAF-BDD-Test">
    <test verbose="2" preserve-order="true" name="mID Tests for Real device">
        <parameter name="step.provider.pkg" value="com.zetes.pass.diw.mid.stepDefinitions" />
        <parameter name="scenario.file.loc" value="src/test/resources/features" />
      </parameter>
        <parameter name="host" value="realDevice"/>
        <groups>
            <run>
                <include name="Test"/>
            </run>
        </groups>
        <classes>
            <class name="com.qmetry.qaf.automation.step.client.text.BDDTestFactory2" />
        </classes>
    </test>

</suite>

     }) public class RunCucumberTest
        extends AbstractTestNGCucumberTests {
    private TestNGCucumberRunner testNGCucumberRunner;
    @Autowired private ObjectMapper objectMapper;

    @Test(groups = "cucumber", description = "Runs Cucumber Scenarios", dataProvider = "scenarios")
    public void runScenario(PickleWrapper pickleWrapper, FeatureWrapper featureWrapper) {
        super.runScenario(pickleWrapper, featureWrapper);
    }

    @Override @DataProvider(name = "scenarios") public Object[][] scenarios() {
        return super.scenarios();
    }

    @PostConstruct public void setUp() {
        objectMapper.registerModule(new JavaTimeModule());
    }
}


below is the error

please can someone help me on this

I tried to debug why am getting this error and am looking to use yaml file instead of properties file , if that solves the error am getting

type here

which version of testng, qaf and cucumber you are using? Also if you want to use cucumber with testng runner and data provider capabilities, you don't need to create class `RunCucumberTest` instead of that use [CucumberScenarioFactory](https://github.com/qmetry/qaf-cucumber/issues/10#issuecomment-912721331) which is available in [qaf-cucumber](https://github.com/qmetry/qaf-cucumber) library — user861594, Jan 26 '23 at 18:32
i use below versions testNG-7.7.0,qaf.cucumber-3.1.0,cucumber-7.10.1 So i have removed RunCucumberTest based on your comment. and used Cucumber scenario Factory. — user12286377, Jan 27 '23 at 05:59
Now i get this error Added "QAFMethodSelector" [[TestNGClassFinder]]Unable to read methods on class com.qmetry.qaf.automation.cucumber.runner.CucumberScenarioFactory - unable to resolve class reference io/cucumber/core/runtime/TypeRegistryConfigurerSupplier ERROR PropertyUtil:216 - resources\application.properties (The system cannot find the path specified) INFO ConfigurationManager:ISFW build info: {qaf-Type=core, qaf-Revision=0, qaf-Build-Time=27-Feb-2022 14:37:01, qaf-Version=3.1} ERROR ConfigurationManager:277 - C:\tests\resources not exist!

QAF-cucumber supports cucumber version 5.x. If you don't have cucumber' specific version requirement, you should try with following cucumber and testng dependencies in your pom file.

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.qmetry/qaf-cucumber -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.qmetry</groupId>
    <artifactId>qaf-cucumber</artifactId>
    <version>3.2.0b</version>
</dependency>
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.cucumber/cucumber-core -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>io.cucumber</groupId>
    <artifactId>cucumber-core</artifactId>
    <version>5.4.1</version>
</dependency>
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.cucumber/cucumber-core -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>io.cucumber</groupId>
    <artifactId>cucumber-java</artifactId>
    <version>5.4.1</version>
</dependency>
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.testng/testng -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.testng</groupId>
    <artifactId>testng</artifactId>
    <version>7.4.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
