The duplicate post reference helped me solve the issue, but now I see the setup being counted as a test scenario in 1.3.0. Moving to 1.3.1 has fixed that issue as well, but the @setup reference only shows on the first scenario, and no further entries, along with no background reference, but the background shows in subsequent tests. Is this expected?

Yes. The Background does not apply to the @setup as explained in the design.
And the @setup body will appear only once. It could possibly be duplicated in the report, but right now that's how it is implemented. This should normally not be a concern because the point of the @setup is to move some setup logic out of the actual business flow you are testing.
Code contributions are welcome to improve how it works.

So should the background step appear in the steps list of the first scenario item rather than just the subsequent ones, since I believe it is being executed as a part of the first run itself? – mike Mar 30 '23 at 18:21
