在测试中使用 Java + Spring + Cucumber 框架比核心 Java + Cucumber 框架有什么优势？

Question

I've been using a core Java + Cucumber framework in testing for both Web & API testing for years; over the years I've seen a number of people using a Spring Boot + Cucumber framework. I want to understand what are the major advantages of using a Spring Boot framework for an automated testing framework? Could someone explain or point me to already written resources on this topic?

Answer 1

Spring Boot is going to handle dependencies. It's going to bring all your test and development artifacts through boot-starters. It's nothing to do with Spring Boot for handling test automation.

Spring frameworks has its own advantages of writing tests. With the help of cucumber-spring test cases can be enriched in cucumber way.
