REST API Automation Testing from Scratch - REST Assured Java - Running the Tests with testRunner

The video tutorial explains how to set up and run a test runner using Cucumber. It covers creating packages, using Cucumber options and glue parameters, defining step definitions, and executing tests. The tutorial also previews advanced topics like parameterization and data driving.

What is the first step in setting up a test runner file for Cucumber?

• Import necessary libraries

• Write step definitions

• Create a package under source test Java

• Create a new Java class

What does the Cucumber options annotation require as inputs?

• Java class and package name

• Test runner file and glue parameter

• Feature file location and step definition location

• JUnit runner and API imports

What is the purpose of the glue parameter in Cucumber?

• To define where the step definition package is located

• To execute the test runner file

• To specify the location of the feature files

• To import necessary Cucumber libraries

Why should the test runner and step definition packages have a common parent?

• To simplify the path management

• To ensure faster execution

• To improve code readability

• To avoid duplicate step definitions

What is the role of the test runner file in Cucumber?

• To import necessary libraries

• To execute feature files and map step definitions

• To write step definitions

• To create feature files

What is printed in the console to show proof of execution?

• Cucumber options

• System.out.println messages

• Step definition file path

• Feature file name

What indicates a successful test execution in the results?

• Blue information icons

• Red cross marks

• Yellow warning signs

• Green tick marks

What should be done if you want to run only a specific feature file?

• Provide the package name only

• Deliberately pass the feature file name

• Use a different test runner

• Change the glue parameter

What is the benefit of using Cucumber for test automation?

• It allows writing tests in plain English

• It requires no setup

• It is faster than other frameworks

• It does not need any coding

What is the next topic to be covered after this lecture?

• Advanced Cucumber options

• Regular expressions and parameterization

• JUnit integration

• Selenium API usage
