@cucumber/cucumber is a powerful tool for behavior-driven development (BDD) in JavaScript. It allows you to write executable specifications in a human-readable format and automate testing based on those specifications. With @cucumber/cucumber, you can create feature files using Gherkin syntax, define step definitions in JavaScript, and run tests to validate the behavior of your application.

Compared to other testing frameworks like Jest or Mocha, @cucumber/cucumber focuses on collaboration between technical and non-technical team members by providing a common language for defining and verifying application behavior. It promotes clear communication and alignment between stakeholders throughout the development process.

Alternatives: Jest, Mocha, Cypress
