What is BDD?
Behaviour-driven development (BDD) is a software development methodology
in which an application is specified and designed by describing how its
behaviour should appear to an outside observer. (I stole it from Web)
It involves collaboration amongst Stakeholder, Product Owner, Developer and
Tester

When BDD?
• Before the Development
• During the Development
• After the Development

Classification:Public
How BDD is done?
• Product Owner + Business Analyst = Discuss Business Needs
• (3 Amigos) BA + Developer + Tester = Requirement Scenarios
• Developer uses the scenarios as the base of their development
• Tester uses the scenarios as the base of their tests
• BA uses the scenarios for traceability (Validate if the acceptance criteria is
met)

Classification:Public
Scenario?
• Written in plain English
• Line oriented language called Gherkin is used
• Uses specific Keywords such as Given, When, Then, And, But
• Could be collaborated with different tools such as Cucumber (Currently used
in our project), Easy B, JBehave, SpecFlow

When it comes to automation testing, BDD seems to be like a boon ;)
These frameworks collaboration with in-demand language like java makes it
more and more trendy.

Cucumber is a behavior driven development tool that serves as documentation, automated tests, and development aid. It is written in a ubiquitous language that is understood by all team members, including business stakeholders. Cucumber features are written as scenarios in plain English using a language called Gherkin. These scenarios can then be automated as tests in various programming languages and integrated into continuous integration pipelines. Cucumber provides a way for teams to collaborate and ensure the behavior of an application is developed and functioning as intended across its lifecycle.

Hands on BDD with cucumber - Agile Goa Sept 2013Sonik Chopra

Cucumber is a behaviour-driven development tool that allows teams to write automated tests, documentation, and code using a common language. It serves as documentation, automated tests, and a development aid. Cucumber features are written in plain English using a language called Gherkin so they can be understood by all stakeholders. The tool demonstrates the real power of behaviour-driven development by facilitating conversations between customers, business analysts, developers, and testers through examples. Cucumber supports integration with various programming languages and platforms and can be used to help teams work together more effectively across silos.

Myths and Challenges of Behaviour Driven DevelopmentPankaj Nakhat

BDD aims to define requirements through examples from stakeholders' perspectives. While tools like Cucumber can support BDD, the focus is on communication, not tools. Common myths include thinking BDD is just a testing tool or framework, or that it replaces TDD. Challenges to BDD include getting business involved, choosing an appropriate level of abstraction in scenarios, maintaining requirement traceability, and refactoring tests when code changes. Slow or flaky tests can also be issues if best practices aren't followed. BDD can also be used for non-functional requirements and exploratory testing.

Topic tdd-and-bdd b4usolutionHoa Le

TDD and BDD are software testing methodologies. TDD focuses on writing unit tests before code and uses a red-green-refactor cycle. BDD expands on TDD with a focus on defining desired behaviors in business-friendly language to improve collaboration between teams. Key benefits of BDD include stronger collaboration, improved visibility, a shared language, and ensuring software meets business needs. BDD tools like Cucumber use a Given/When/Then syntax to define scenarios in plain text.

This document discusses behavior driven development (BDD) and the use of SpecFlow, an open source BDD tool for .NET. It begins by explaining some of the communication problems that can occur in traditional waterfall software development approaches. It then introduces BDD as a way to improve communication through the use of examples and acceptance criteria specified in a shared language like Gherkin. SpecFlow is presented as a tool that supports BDD for .NET projects by allowing executable specifications to be written in Gherkin and linked to test frameworks. The document demonstrates SpecFlow and discusses how it helps automate scenarios to establish a common understanding and ensure requirements are properly implemented.

PHPFrameworkDay 2020 - Different software evolutions from Start till Release ...Alexandr Savchenko

https://fwdays.com/en/event/php-fwdays-2020 All of us think about many questions when we start a project, when we already have a product and when we release it. Here are some of them: which architecture and infrastructure to choose? what should be the repository structure? how to make the right evolution from one application to 100 microservices with success product release? how to distribute cross-stack commands as a whole? what development practices to use? This story will expose approaches to solving these and many other problems in PHP projects through: None-Breaking change development approach, Cross-stack contacts, Trunk Based development, evolution from Polyrepo to Monorepo with components on different technologies, Boilerplates for components, different Architecture Views, Continuous Testing & Quality, Infrastructure View, Infrastructure as a code as the main tool.

Considerations For an API Strategy - Ronnie MItra API Architect Layer 7 Londo...CA API Management

API Management is becoming increasingly important as more and more organisations need to expose their data and application functionality to internal and external developers. Exposing APIs empowers these organisations to engage customers in innovative new ways, create new revenue opportunities and transform their businesses into platforms. But how do you ensure your APIs are exposed securely? How do you create, maintain and update different versions of your APIs? How do you throttle usage, meter requests and monitor API health?

BDD in Action discusses how the author has implemented Behavior Driven Development (BDD) in their projects. BDD uses examples to describe software behaviors and tests scenarios first before development. The author explains how using Gherkin language and Cucumber automation tools allowed them to write acceptance criteria as examples, collaborate with business stakeholders, and develop using a test-first approach. Challenges included experimental scenario writing and appium instability, but overall BDD provided living documentation, less regression testing, and ensured development matched stakeholder expectations.
