Cucumber is a popular tool for Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), enabling teams to write tests in plain language. Here's a quick guide to help you begin:

📚 What is BDD?

BDD bridges the gap between technical and non-technical teams by using Gherkin syntax (e.g., Feature, Scenario, Given/When/Then).
For more advanced topics, check out our guide on Cucumber hooks.

🧰 Installation

  1. Install Cucumber via npm:
    npm install cucumber
    
  2. Set up a project structure with features/ and step_definitions/ folders.
    Project_Structure

📝 Example Scenario

Feature: Login functionality
  Scenario: Successful login
    Given I am on the login page
    When I enter valid credentials
    Then I should be redirected to the dashboard
