When updating codeception to version 5.0.7 and allure-framework/allure-codeception v2.1.0, a problem appears with running tests

[ildream96]

When updating codeception/codeception to version 5.0.7 and allure-framework/allure-codeception to v2.1.0, we encountered an issue with running tests. The configuration of extensions is as per GitHub.

extensions:
    enabled:
        - Qameta\Allure\Codeception\AllureCodeception
    config:
        Qameta\Allure\Codeception\AllureCodeception:
            deletePreviousResults: true
            outputDirectory: allure-results
            ignoredAnnotations:
                - env
                - dataProvider
                - skip

In the previous version, there was a method called _initialize responsible for initializing the extension.

/**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     *
     * @throws ConfigurationException
     * phpcs:disable PSR2.Methods.MethodDeclaration.Underscore
     */
    public function _initialize(): void
    {
        QametaAllure::reset();
        $this->testLifecycle = null;
        $this->threadDetector = null;
        QametaAllure::getLifecycleConfigurator()
            ->setStatusDetector(new StatusDetector(new DefaultStatusDetector()))
            ->setOutputDirectory($this->getOutputDirectory());

        foreach ($this->getLinkTemplates() as $linkType => $linkTemplate) {
            QametaAllure::getLifecycleConfigurator()->addLinkTemplate($linkType, $linkTemplate);
        }

        $this->callSetupHook();
    }

In the new version, a subscription to the module event has been introduced (not an extension).

    protected static array $events = [
        Events::MODULE_INIT => 'moduleInit',
        Events::SUITE_BEFORE => 'suiteBefore',
        Events::SUITE_AFTER => 'suiteAfter',
        Events::TEST_START => 'testStart',
        Events::TEST_FAIL => 'testFail',
        Events::TEST_ERROR => 'testError',
        Events::TEST_INCOMPLETE => 'testIncomplete',
        Events::TEST_SKIPPED => 'testSkipped',
        Events::TEST_SUCCESS => 'testSuccess',
        Events::TEST_END => 'testEnd',
        Events::STEP_BEFORE => 'stepBefore',
        Events::STEP_AFTER => 'stepAfter'
    ];

    private ?ThreadDetectorInterface $threadDetector = null;

    private ?TestLifecycleInterface $testLifecycle = null;

    /**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     *
     * @throws ConfigurationException
     * phpcs:disable PSR2.Methods.MethodDeclaration.Underscore
     */
    public function moduleInit(): void
    {
        QametaAllure::reset();
        $this->testLifecycle = null;
        $this->threadDetector = null;
        QametaAllure::getLifecycleConfigurator()
            ->setStatusDetector(new StatusDetector(new DefaultStatusDetector()))
            ->setOutputDirectory($this->getOutputDirectory());
        foreach ($this->getLinkTemplates() as $linkType => $linkTemplate) {
            QametaAllure::getLifecycleConfigurator()->addLinkTemplate($linkType, $linkTemplate);
        }
        $this->callSetupHook();
    }

That’s why the extension is not being initialized in the test and fails with an error. How should the extension be configured correctly for it to work?

[Qameta\Allure\Exception\OutputDirectoryUndefinedException]                                                                                      
  Output directory is not set for Allure. Please call Qameta\Allure\Allure::setOutputDirectory() method before accessing Allure lifecycle object.

Hello, @ildream96 ! Could you please set a breakpoint inside moduleInit and check if it's called before an exception is thrown? And please provide full trace for the exception, if possible.

@remorhaz Hello! Could you please check out #124? This issue is still reproducable, at least on the latest versions of Codeception, so I think it is not that bad to get back to _initialize method instead of event.

[beliarh0503]

@remorhaz hi. I have the same problem, do you have any update here? I suggest apply #124 because there isn't event with module.init and don't call in code

[manifity]

@remorhaz The same for me and I am with the guys about decision #124 . What is approximate time to have an actual code with the fix?

As I can see for extension don't have hook/event https://github.com/Codeception/Codeception/blob/29391610ff4d70bdff340970af0b9de12a34ad74/src/Codeception/Extension.php#L82
