I wonder if BPMN 2.0 can be used instead of BPEL. I know that it is primarly modeling standard, but BPMN 2.0 can also be executable. What is it mean and how can be used instead of BPEL? Can I use it for calling Web Services or can be the process even called as a service? Or in which meaning is executable? Thaks.

For me BPMN 2.0 do not replace BPEL, they are two differents langage.
But the fact is that in several cases you can use both because BPEL can be translated by using a certain subset of BPMN2.0 or a certain part of BPMN2.0 concepts corerspond to BPEL.
BPMN2.0 and BPEL engines are available in the market but of course the feature are not the same between each of them.

Hi I know that BDD with selenium can be used to test user interfaces.
I also know that APIs could be tested using Gherkin.
My question is, should APIs be tested using Gherkin? Is it the right tool for the job?
BDD aims to create a shared understanding of how an application should behave by discovering new features based on concrete examples. Key examples are then formalized with natural language following a Given/When/Then structure
For that you use Gherkin. On which layer you then automate is another decision.
This can be the UI layer, or some API service layer below.
So yes, Gherkin is the right tool for the job.

Is it possible to create API documents on JIRA? If yes then how? The currently employed approach involves creating / updating a Microsoft Word document and replacing it on Confluence. This approach though fulfills the requirement but do not seems a better way for API documentation management.
Thanks
Uploading Microsoft Word documents is probably the worst way.
Although I find Confluence (and JIRA) to be terrible, I write API docs using a table and it works well:
Once you have a template, copy and paste to grow the docs.

What are the test cases that can be used to test a web application?
test links
bench marking
any other suggestions?
The functions of the web application should be identified based on the specification and/or requirements (http://www.testingminded.com/2008/12/what-is-test-base.html). You can write test cases based on this function list. But there are a lot of ways to improve your tests... If you want to use a more sophisticated method, you can read about ISTQB, test planning and test desing. http://www.istqb.org/newsevents/news/2013/341-chapter-3-in-advanced-level-syllabus-2012-test-analyst-test-techniques.html
For webapp testing we use Selenium (http://docs.seleniumhq.org/) and JUnit (http://junit.org/).

This is loosely related to Highcharts, but they have a great documentation at http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts and I'd like to know how it is made.
Its actually not generated from source; instead we have database model where we can express inheritance/overrides/deprecation/version/return types/... and other meta-data for each property. The database is currently a mongodb instance but could really be any type of database.
On top of the database there is a rest api that the webpage is using to query for more options (when you click "expand" on a node). The server is implemented as a java webapp using the spring-framework and the webpage is implemented using jquery+jquery-ui.

not necessary an UML diagram, just a simple way to graphically document the relations between several systems...
the systems can be linked through web services, linked-servers, text files, batch processes, com+ components etc...
I was thinking about a high level map, showing which system is consumming, exposing, resources and by which means...
perhaps a deployment diagram would do, or a completely custom diagram...
what do you use to document this kind of relations?
You can create component dependency diagrams in UML.
