Cucumber BDD Framework

Cucumber-jvm is an open source BDD (Behavior Driven Development) tool that lets user express the behavior of system under test in plain English. It is a great way to have an executable documentation of your system.
For reference please click on the links mentioned below:

For an example, think of writing a simple addition program. If you were to practice BDD, the team
should get together to define the expected behavior such as:

should perform addition of two positive number

should perform addition of a positive and a negative number

should perform addition of two negative number

should perform addition for decimal numbers upto 2 digits and likewise

Gherkin is a plain English text language, which helps the tool – Cucumber to interpret and execute the test scripts.
