Abstract
Cucumber (Figure 6-1) is an awesome tool that allows you to develop your software using a Behavior-Driven Approach (BDA). It makes sure that business stakeholders transfer the software requirements to developers in an accurate and rigorous way so that the final software delivered fully satisfies those requirements. Also, the requirements are turned into executable specifications of the application developed, and they are executed on every new commit to make sure that no old features are broken when new ones are introduced. Cucumber is a great tool of collaboration, documentation, and test automation.
