[dcuenca-fluidra]

Same here. We had to downgrade VSCode to 1.89 and disable auto updates to continue having this great plugin working.

[jm-paulin]

Ah, just saw that. created #235. will close as this is a dup.

[jclery-pass]

Same problem here.

[barrymichaeldoyle]

This has been a problem for a while now 😞 I saw VSCode just released a new update and it is still not working.

[elDin-Dev]

Yes, i test every 2 days with VS Code insider (1.92.0-insider) the problem still there

[jhassine]

The error also happens inside a devcontainer

[martin-shields-sage]

I have the same issue as well

[jm-paulin]

Would cucumber/language-service#209 help to address this issue @kieran-ryan ?

[rolger]

It also fails for me with the same message. Maybe this could help:

I setup an enviroment in gitpod and the same error occured. Then I tried the same on my Window 10 environment and it worked fine. So, really was wondering what is the difference. Then I used a local installation of Ubuntu and it fails again. So it seems that it depends on the operating system.

I also get this problem. What is the right location to address this issue: Is it the cucumber-language-server, it is tree-sitter? I guess it is not the vscode cucumber plugin itself, is it?

[Ramin2c]

I just tested and the issue is still there in 1.90.0, 1.91.0 and 1.92.0
Downgraded to 1.89.0 and it works like it should.

Used winget to install an older version:

winget install -e --id Microsoft.VisualStudioCode -v 1.89.0

NOTE: the current version needs to uninstalled, either manually or through Programs

... on a related note: it's bad enough I have to write unit tests in the 🫏backwards format, but when the plugin that makes it bearable stops working ... I'm not ashamed to say I had a little cry :)

[TriPawdCat]

Please could we have an update on this Bug? This has been open for 6 months and appears that no progress has been made.
VSCode is the IDE of choice for our organisation and working without this extension is now becoming very difficult and we are now considering migrating away from using Cucumber for our BDD Test Framework and will need to look for alternatives.

I hope that there is an update in the very near future :-)

[guenhter]

I wonder if this plugin works for anyone.

We use alexkrechik.cucumberautocomplete as an alternative.

[Ramin2c]

I wonder if this plugin works for anyone.

We use alexkrechik.cucumberautocomplete as an alternative.

How does it work on your side? For example:

1. Does it help you generate the test skeleton?
2. Does it have autocomplete in scenario files?
3. Does it link scenarios to the python code?

[guenhter]

To be honest, I don't use this features much. My only use case is the syntax highlighting and auto formatting.

[Ramin2c]

To be honest, I don't use this features much. My only use case is the syntax highlighting and auto formatting.

"syntax highlighting and auto formatting" is equally important, I'd like to
give it a try as well. Thanks for suggesting the extension.

[bmeier-pros]

Yes, @guenhter thank you for the suggestion. That plugin works for our use cases currently, though it has some quirks. The official cucumber plugin is apparently not going to be maintained further, so we've switched to https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=alexkrechik.cucumberautocomplete for our BDD work.
