State Levels

Since v2.38.0

Gwen maintains state for features and scenarios during execution based on your configured gwen.state.level setting. If not configured, then Gwen will use feature level state by default.

Feature Level State​

gwen.state.level = feature (default)

With feature level state, each feature will get a new state during execution. The same state will be shared across scenarios. So scenarios can share data between each other and access other feature-global data.

Scenario Level State​

gwen.state.level = scenario

With scenario level state, each scenario will get a new state during execution. The same state will never be shared across scenarios. So scenarios cannot share data between each other and no feature-global data is available.
