Implementing BDD in CI for RESTful API Testing

[Miapai]

As a developer I need to ensure the functionality of the app by creating a BDD (Behavior-Driven Development) workflow in the CI pipeline So that I can confidently make changes and enhancements to the application.

Details and Assumptions

• I have written a RESTful API in rest_api.js that needs thorough testing.
• BDD is implemented using the Gherkin syntax understood by the Behave tool.
• The BDD feature file (test.feature) and accompanying steps file (steps.py) are created to test the RESTful API.
• A GitHub Actions workflow file (bdd.yml) is added to the .github/workflows directory for continuous integration.
• The CI pipeline is configured to run BDD test cases every time someone pushes to the master branch or submits a Pull Request.

Acceptance Criteria

Given BDD has been integrated into the CI pipeline
When a PR is submitted or a merge to master happens
Then BDD test cases should run

Definition of Done:

• The RESTful API (rest_api.js) is implemented.
• BDD feature file (test.feature) is created with Gherkin syntax.
• Steps file (steps.py) is implemented to define the behavior of each step in the feature file.
• A GitHub Actions workflow file (bdd.yml) is created in the .github/workflows directory.
• The CI pipeline triggers BDD test cases to run on each push to the master branch or Pull Request submission.
• BDD test cases pass successfully in the CI pipeline.
• Developers receive timely feedback on the functionality of the app through the CI pipeline.
