Introduction

This repository contains a demonstration of testing using Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) with Cucumber for a Java Spring Boot application. It includes tests covering various aspects such as REST API endpoints using MockMvc, ResponseEntity, and integration tests for controllers, services, and repositories.

Content Description

The tests are structured to ensure comprehensive coverage of different layers of the application:

• Controller Tests: Validate the behavior of REST endpoints using MockMvc for simulating HTTP requests and verifying responses.
• Service Tests: Test the business logic and interactions within service layers.
• Repository Tests: Verify the interactions with the database layer using Spring's test framework.
• BDD Tests with Cucumber: Define and execute scenarios in a human-readable format using Gherkin syntax, enhancing collaboration between stakeholders and developers.

Implementation

Prerequisites

• Java 8 or higher
• Maven
• Spring Boot

Running Tests

To run the tests, use the following command:

mvn test

git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name

git commit -am 'Add some feature'

git push origin feature/your-feature-name
