- A plain-text, business-readable domain-specific language to write structured test scenarios and specifications for behavior-driven development (BDD). It uses a simple syntax with keywords like “Given,” “When,” “Then,” “And,” and “But” to describe software behavior in natural language that both technical and non-technical stakeholders can understand. Gherkin scenarios serve as executable documentation that can be automated by testing frameworks like Cucumber, allowing to write acceptance criteria that function as both specification and automated tests. ↑ cucumber.io/docs/gherkin
