How to use VIVIDUS MCP server to create automated scenarios

The VIVIDUS MCP server exposes core VIVIDUS functionalities to LLMs via the MCP protocol, enabling generation of automated test scenarios leveraging those capabilities.

LLM will access only those steps that are available from plugins included into your test project.

Pre-requisites

Copy the below line to dependencies section of the project build.gradle file in your test project

Please make sure to use the same version for all VIVIDUS dependencies.
Example 1. build.gradle
```
implementation(group: 'org.vividus', name: 'vividus-mcp-server')
```
