This project is an automated test suite for the BBC API using Cucumber(Gherkin), TypeScript, and Supertest. It's a take home assignment completed by Catherine Siviter.

Ensure you have the following installed on your machine:

• Node.js (v14.x or higher)
• npm (comes with Node.js)

1. Clone the repository or download the project files.
2. Navigate to the project directory.
3. Run the following command to install all dependencies:

npm install

To execute the end-to-end tests and generate a report in JSON format:

npm run test

This command will:

• Run all .feature files located in the features/ directory.
• Output the test results in a file called cucumber_report.json.

Once the tests are complete, you can generate a readable HTML report. Use the following command:

npm run generate:report

This command will:

• Take the cucumber_report.json file and generate an HTML report.
• The report will be created in the ./reports folder.

If you want to customize the report's appearance or output location, you can modify report.js according to your needs.

1. Run tests and generate the JSON report:

npm run test

2. Generate the HTML report from the JSON output:

npm run generate:report

Manual test cases can be found in Gherkin syntax under the 'manual' folder.
