Cucumber

Cucumber is a tool used in software development to help ensure that a program works as intended. It allows teams to write clear, human-readable tests—called scenarios—that describe how the software should behave in various situations. These tests are written in plain language, making it easier for developers, testers, and non-technical stakeholders to understand and collaborate. Cucumber then automatically runs these scenarios to verify that the software responds correctly, helping teams catch errors early and improve overall quality through shared understanding.
