I'm trying to run a Cucumber test-case scenario and received an error after compilation in IntelliJ-IDEA. I have posted the build.gradle file here. I'm not sure why I'm getting this error as soon as I run the program. Can somebody enlighten me on how to fix this issue? I've been getting this error for more than a day and still no solution.

Note: I have removed redundant parts of the error.
I've managed to solve the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/restassured/path/xml/mapper/factory/JAXBObjectMapperFactory error by explicitly declaring the json-path and xml-pathin the build.gradle file.
Here's how I've declared it.

The reason behind it can be found in this link: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/restassured/mapper/factory/GsonObjectMapperFactory
For those who are lazy to visit the link, here's the explanation:
The root cause of this is rest-assured *ObjectMapperFactory package names changing, for example between versions 3.x and 4.x.
For anyone coming across this after the release of rest-assured 4.0.0, this problem can appear in Spring Boot projects - caused by a version mismatch between rest-assured and its transitive dependencies on json-path and xml-path in the spring-boot-dependencies bom.
If you specify a dependency io.rest-assured:rest-assured:4.0.0, you also need to explicitly include io.rest-assured:json-path:4.0.0 and io.rest-assured:xml-path:4.0.0, otherwise spring-boot-dependencies will pull in version 3.1.1 with the old *ObjectMapperFactory package names.
