mvn serenity:aggregate runs 0 tests and index.html has 0 results however mvn clean verify works and gets results - rest-assured

Question

We have Serenity Cucumber integrated with Maven for REST API automation project running with Junit. Whenever trying to execute the command mvn serenity:aggregate results on console shows "Build success' but with 0 requirements loaded and index.html has 0 results and generated under target/site/serenity. Whereas if run with the command mvn clean verify getting results under the same folder.

Answer 1

Able to figure out the reason why the command was not working. in pom.xml file, after adding tags and while running the command by giving the report output path, I am able to get the Serenity reports as expected.
updates done:
serenity.test.root="com.projectname.backend.core"
serenity.reports.show.step.details=true
serenity.outputDirectory = target/site/reports
in pom.xml file: added tags configuration, and the tag has value in RunnerFile.java
<plugin>
<groupId>net.serenity-bdd.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>serenity-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${serenity.maven.version}</version>
<configuration>
<tags>${tags}</tags>
</configuration>
Also, below dependency versions used:
<properties>
<serenity.version>2.2.1</serenity.version>
<serenity.cucumber.version>2.2.0</serenity.cucumber.version>
<serenity.maven.version>2.2.1</serenity.maven.version>
</properties>
Command used:
mvn serenity:aggregate -Dserenity.outputDirectory=C:\Users\projectname\target\site\reports
