allure-awaitility: the steps in the allure-report break after calling the await() function #891

Closed

Description

@petrschitow

Brief description of the problem:

I started using the allure-awaitility library and saw strange behavior - after the first call to the await() function in the test, either the hierarchy of steps in the report breaks or there are no steps at all after the step that contains await()

Steps to reproduce:

I created a simple project to demonstrate the problem (Kotlin + TestNG): https://github.com/petrschitow/allure-awaitility-issue

To reproduce the error, you need to run the tests and generate an allure-report using the following commands:
mvn clean test
allure serve target/allure-results

To observe different behavior, run tests with commented/uncommented lines 32-34 in TestConfiguration.kt file

You can find screenshots with actual/expected behaviour here

P.S. The pet-api is unstable, so you may need to run the test a couple of times.

    This is a major issue, awaitility is a very popular library

    Seems to be caused by awaitility polling with a different thread. Using await().pollInSameThread() fixes the issue for me.

    @pme-sap Yeah, seems to do the trick. It does go somehow against what's awaitility supposed to do though, a proper fix would be great

    Hi! Are there any updates on this? It's still reproducible in 2.27.0. Looks quite serious.
