Selenium BDD Practice with Cucumber

This project demonstrates Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) with Cucumber and Selenium for automating web application tests. The tests are written in Gherkin syntax and are executed with Selenium WebDriver for web automation.

Technologies Used

• Selenium: For automating the web application UI.
• Cucumber: For writing BDD-style tests using Gherkin syntax.
• Maven: For dependency management and building the project.
• Java: The programming language for writing step definitions and Selenium interactions.

Directory Breakdown

• features/: Contains Gherkin .feature files that describe the test scenarios in plain English.
• pages/: Implements the Page Object Model (POM) pattern to abstract web page interactions and elements into Java classes.
• runner/: Contains runner classes for executing Cucumber tests, typically including hooks and configuration.
• stepdefinition/: Maps steps from the feature files to corresponding Java methods for test execution.
• utility/: Contains helper classes like DriverManager for WebDriver setup and ConfigDataReader for reading configuration values.
