Vikram,> I feel strange that why many people still wants to keep test cases ( user stories ) separated from automation script, even when Cucumber tool keep both these critical components of testing in sync every day.Cucumber does not do this. You as an automation engineer would basically be responsible for tying down individual gherkin steps to their corresponding step definitions. So its still essentially the tester having to do this.BDD as a concept has its advantages, but that doesn't mean that the BDD implementation in a particular language should do so as as well. For e.g., the cucumber java implementation lacks several things that a regular automation test would be able to leverage upon such as building test dependencies, data driven tests (yes examples are there in cucumber but I feel they aren't as versatile as a data driven test written using TestNG for e.g.,), parallel execution of scenarios etc.,

Before you start writing code I suggest first start following BDD approach and write down "User Stories" to be automated.
Then you can decide whether to automate those on UI / API level.

The purpose of Java / other selenium supported language and Cucumber are different, one should use individual tool's strong points to achieve unique task/s related to user story optimally.
https://github.com/temyers/cucumber-jvm-parallel-plugin
https://github.com/trivago/cucable-plugin
These 2 are for feature files parallel run.
My main point of argument is keeping test cases / user stories in sync along with automation scripts instead of maintaining it separately.
I'm following BDD since last 2+ years for both web, mobile and api projects and find it much better than traditional way of software testing practices
