Cucumber and BDD Testing Tutorial

Cucumber is a software tool that supports Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD). It is written using Gherkin language. We would write feature files in Gherkin which in turn contains many business scenarios in Given-When-Then Syntax.

Cucumber supports all major languages and framework and currently used by many companies/projects for BDD implementation/Test Automation.

Approach is to explain in conversational/colloquial Kannada to reinforce the learning and for better understanding.
