• Support for Multiple Parameter Types: Built-in parameter types include integers, floats, words, strings, big decimals, doubles, big integers, bytes, shorts, and longs.
• Mixing Syntax: Cucumber supports both Cucumber Expressions and Regular Expressions for defining Step Definitions, enhancing flexibility.

Summary

Cucumber Expressions provide a more user-friendly and readable way to define Step Definitions in Cucumber tests. By offering an alternative to Regular Expressions with built-in parameter types, Cucumber Expressions simplify the implementation of test scenarios while maintaining flexibility for more complex use cases.
