Cucumber

Hi everyone!

I am starting in test automation. I like Python direction, but in many roles, Cucumber is asked as the skill. So is behave totally replacing Cucumber or it would be better to learn Java and Cucumber?

So far, I have worked on UI automation testing using the WebdriverIO+TypeScript+ Cucumber framework. Now my manager wants me to design a framework for API automation testing using TypeScript.

Could someone please suggest if it is ideal to use cucumber for API automation? If not, please provide the reasons. And also, please suggest the best npm packages, framework (Cucumber/ Mocha), API testing module - axios or SuperTest, report generation tool (Allure report or any other) that we can use for API automation testing.

I use Cucumber because it's a great tool that allows me to write BDD tests using Selenium framework and Ruby to write the code.
