REST API Automation Testing from Scratch - REST Assured Java - Importance of Cucumber Hooks in Setting up Preconditions

The video tutorial explains how to use tagging in Cucumber to run specific test cases independently. It covers the implementation of tags in test runner files and demonstrates how to execute tests based on these tags. The tutorial also addresses handling test dependencies and introduces hooks in Cucumber to set preconditions and postconditions for scenarios. By using hooks, tests can be run independently without failing due to missing preconditions.

How can you ensure that your test runner file is correctly configured to run specific tests?

What is the significance of the place ID in the context of the tests?

What should you do if a test case fails due to a missing precondition?
