My Test Runner settings:

@CucumberOptions(plugin = { "pretty", "html:target/cucumber", "json:target_json/cucumber.json",
        "junit:taget_junit/cucumber.xml", "com.cucumber.listener.ExtentCucumberFormatter"
        }
features = "C:\\AutomationNeon1\\atom\\src\\main\\features\\smascheduler\\new-schedule.feature", glue = {
                "com.morrisons.automation.stepdefs.sma" })

I think it is not able to find the feature file. Check the features path. Try with starting the features path from src. — Grasshopper, Dec 15 '17 at 16:46
Just curious why in the stack trace TestNG is mentioned and in your configuration it's jUnit — Eugene S, Dec 16 '17 at 00:31
@EugeneS junit plugin produces xml reports which CI servers use to generate fancy reports... — Grasshopper, Dec 16 '17 at 08:37
Can you please let us know what version of `cucumber-testng` library you are working with ? — Krishnan Mahadevan, Dec 20 '17 at 04:22

The issue was duplicate step definition methods, it got fixed when i removed duplicate method. i have ignored Junit logs, and it was printed in the same.
