Abstract—Testing is a very fundamental concept of analysing all the functionalities to ensure the smooth running of the software. The most Basic form of testing is manual testing where a user will test all the functionalities but this is very time - consuming. This is very automation testing plays a big role, it will test multiple functionalities at the same time including stress test and volume testing with the help of a framework. Libraries such as the cucumber BDD framework are used to make the coding of the framework less tedious and more understandable for people from non-coding backgrounds. Cucumber is written gherkin language which is easily understandable. The framework has the capability of testing multiple parameters of the interface and gives case-by-case output to see which parameters have failed, hence helping fix these parameters. The implementation of application programming interfaces and web services in the current framework can help increase its volume and productivity of testing.
