Compatibility issue between QAF 3.0.0 and Cucumber 6.0.0

[phTrung]

Steps To Reproduce
Run Cucumber scenario with an excel data provider

Expected behavior
The test should run has many times as there are sets of data

Actual behavior
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/cucumber/core/gherkin/Location

In Cucumber version 6, the Gherkin folder is at the same level as the core. QAF simply lacks compatibility with Cucumber.

Test case sample

Feature: Create and Delete Group
@smoke
@datafile:src/test/resources/features/UserData.xls
@sheetName:Groups
Scenario: Create New User Group
Given I click on create group button
When The create user group pop up appears
Then I enter the group name ${Group Name}
Then I enter the group description ${Description}
Then I add user to the group
Then I click on the create group button
And The group must be created with a confirmation message
