the problem due fact cucumber.api.cli.main calls system.exit , therefore terminates maven process before other plugin gets executed.

one way fix problem use exec goal of exec-maven-plugin, rather java goal, runs in separate process.

however, better (and easier) solution define junit test configure , run cucumber tests, example:

package integration;  import org.junit.runner.runwith;  import cucumber.api.junit.cucumber; import cucumber.api.cucumberoptions;  @runwith(cucumber.class) @cucumberoptions(plugin = "json:target/cucumber-report/cucumber.json") public class runtest { } 

you can use either maven-surefire-plugin or maven-failsafe-plugin plugin execute test. maven-cucumber-reporting plugin execute , create report.

you can see in action on github branch have pushed.
