Tips for Using Cucumber Hooks

The document provides 6 tips for writing efficient test cases using Cucumber: 1) write clear feature files by being specific about actions, 2) use scenario outlines for data-driven tests to run the same scenario with different data, 3) use the background keyword for preconditions that are common across scenarios to reduce duplication, 4) use tags for test categorization to run specific subsets of tests based on tags, 5) use Cucumber hooks to perform setup and teardown operations before and after scenarios, and 6) use regular expressions.
