experienced QA professionals.
To run functional tests written in a plain text Cucumber tool is used. It is written in a Ruby
programming language.
2) What are the two files required to execute a Cucumber test scenario?
• Features
• Step Definition
Background keyword is used to group multiple given statements into a single group. The keyword
mostly used when the same set of given statements are repeated in each scenario of the feature
file.
Scenario Outline is the same scenario can be executed for multiple sets of data using the scenario
outline. The data is provided by a tabular structure separated by (I I).

6) Explain the term step definition in Cucumber
A step definition is the actual code implementation of the feature mentioned in the feature file.
For example to make visitor visit the site “Yahoo” the command we use for given
Browser.goto "http://www.yahoo.com."
Although Cucumber and Jbehave are meant for the same purpose, acceptance tests are
completely different frameworks
A test harness for Cucumber and rspec allows for separating responsibility between setting up the
context and interacting with the browser and cleaning up the step definition files
11) What is the language used for expressing scenario in feature file?
Gherkin language is used to express scenario in feature files and ruby files containing unobtrusive
automation testing for the steps in scenarios
A regular expression is a pattern describing a certain amount of text. The most basic regular
expression consists of a single literal character.
Features/ support file contains supporting ruby code. Files in support load before those in

Cucumber and Selenium are two popular technologies. Many organizations use Selenium for
functional testing. These organizations which are using Selenium want to integrate Cucumber
with Selenium as Cucumber helps you to read and to understand the application flow.
