Part 7: The Payoff: Writing Gherkin Features & Running Tagged Test Suites 🏆

Master production-grade BDD automation by bridging the gap between business requirements and technical testing! 🚀

In this video series, we dive deep into building a professional Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) ecosystem from the ground up. We move beyond basic "Hello World" tutorials to explore real-world framework architecture using Spring Boot 3.5, Cucumber, and Gherkin.

You will learn how to structure a test project that is strictly isolated from your product code, making it fully compatible with modern CI/CD pipelines. We cover everything from setting up the Application Context for dependency injection to building a robust REST Client layer with RestAssured for clean API interactions.

We also tackle the "stateless" challenge of Cucumber by implementing a custom Context Storage mechanism to share IDs and responses across steps. Whether you are an engineer focusing on Automation Testing or a developer looking to improve API validation, this series provides the blueprint for scalable, maintainable test suites.
