feat: implement BDD testing with Godog

Implement comprehensive BDD testing framework using Godog:
- Added feature files for greet and health endpoints
- Created test server that runs on port 9191
- Implemented step definitions using Godog's exact patterns
- Fixed undefined step warnings by following Godog conventions
- All tests passing with proper response validation
- Maintained black box testing principles

Key files:
- pkg/bdd/steps/steps.go - Step definitions using StepContext struct
- pkg/bdd/testserver/ - Test server implementation
- features/*.feature - BDD feature files
- pkg/bdd/README.md - Documentation for proper step patterns

The implementation follows Godog's exact pattern suggestions to avoid
undefined step warnings and provides comprehensive API testing.

# BDD Testing with Godog
This package implements Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) testing using the Godog framework.
## Important Requirements for Step Definitions
### Step Pattern Matching
Godog has **very specific requirements** for step pattern matching. To avoid "undefined" warnings:
1. **Use the exact regex pattern** that Godog suggests in its error messages
2. **Use the exact parameter names** that Godog suggests (`arg1, arg2`, etc.)
3. **Match the feature file syntax exactly** including quotes and JSON formatting
### Example
**Feature file step:**
```gherkin
Then the response should be "{\"message\":\"Hello world!\"}"
```
**Correct step definition:**
```go
ctx.Step(`^the response should be "{\"([^"]*)\":\"([^"]*)\"}"$`, func(arg1, arg2 string) error {
// Implementation here
return nil
})
```
**Incorrect patterns that cause "undefined" warnings:**
```go
// Wrong: Different regex pattern
ctx.Step(`^the response should be "{\"message\":\"([^"]*)\"}"$`, func(message string) error {
// ...
})
// Wrong: Different parameter names
ctx.Step(`^the response should be "{\"([^"]*)\":\"([^"]*)\"}"$`, func(key, value string) error {
// ...
})
```
## Current Implementation
### Step Definition Strategy
1. **First eliminate "undefined" warnings** by using Godog's exact suggested patterns
2. **Return `godog.ErrPending`** initially to confirm pattern matching works
3. **Then implement actual validation** logic
### Files
- `suite.go`: Test suite initialization and server management
- `testserver/`: Test server and client implementation
- `steps/`: Step definitions for each feature
## Debugging "Undefined" Steps
If you see "undefined" warnings:
1. Run the tests to see Godog's suggested pattern:
```bash
go test ./features/... -v
```
2. Copy the **exact regex pattern** from the error message
3. Copy the **exact parameter names** (`arg1, arg2`, etc.)
4. Update your step definition to match exactly
## Common Mistakes
The "undefined" warnings are **not a Godog bug** - they occur when step definitions don't match Godog's expected patterns exactly:
- Using different regex patterns than what Godog suggests
- Using descriptive parameter names instead of `arg1, arg2`
- Not escaping quotes properly in JSON patterns
- Trying to be "clever" with regex optimization
**Solution**: Always use the exact pattern and parameter names that Godog suggests in its error messages.
## Best Practices
1. **Follow Godog's suggestions exactly** - Copy-paste the pattern and parameter names
2. **Test pattern matching first** - Use `godog.ErrPending` to verify patterns work
3. **Then implement logic** - Replace `godog.ErrPending` with actual validation
4. **Don't over-optimize regex** - Use the patterns Godog provides, even if they seem verbose
5. **One pattern per step type** - Use generic patterns to cover similar steps
## Why This Matters
Godog's step matching is **very specific by design**:
- It needs to reliably match feature file steps to code
- It provides exact patterns to ensure consistency
- Following its suggestions guarantees your steps will be recognized
**Remember**: The "undefined" warnings are Godog telling you exactly how to fix your step definitions!
