WelDree

WelDree is a UI to execute Cucumber Scenarios. How this tool development ideation was born? Once a Cucumber feature file is written and implemented, it can be executed using Jenkins, BAT file, and IDEs like IntelliJ & Eclipse. Executing individual scenario from IDE is an easy job for an automation tester.

However, if an non-technical person wants to run the scenarios, then he/she needs to open IDE/Jenkins/Terminal/Command Prompt to kick-off the execution by mentioning tags/scenario names & glue code. Using WelDree, you needn’t to use any technical tools. WelDree is created only to ease the individual automated test case execution.
