Using Cucumber-JVM and Selenium WebDriver in Java for BDD
BDD/ATDD is becoming widely accepted practice in agile software development, and Cucumber-JVM is a mainstream tool used to implement this practice in Java. Cucumber-JVM is based on Cucumber framework, widely used in Ruby on Rails world.
Cucumber-JVM allows developers, QA, and non-technical or business participants to write features and scenarios in a plain text file using Gherkin language with minimal restrictions about grammar in a typical Given, When, and Then structure.
This feature file is then supported by a step definition file, which implements automated steps to execute the scenarios written in a feature file. Apart from testing APIs with Cucumber-JVM, we can also test UI level tests by combining Selenium WebDriver.
In this recipe, we will use Cucumber-JVM, Maven, and Selenium WebDriver for implementing tests for the fund transfer feature from an online banking application.
Getting ready
Create a new Maven project named FundTransfer...
