Behavior-Driven Development Workshop

Has your team ever developed a feature, but found it wasn't quite right? Do the business (product) and development sides work a little too independently? With Behavior-Driven Design you will collaborate successfully and build systems that meet the needs of your product community.

What Will You Learn
Meet The Instructors

Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) helps business people and developers collaborate on necessary behaviors and automate the verification of those behaviors.

It helps teams significantly improve development speed, quality and responsiveness by fostering early alignment and ongoing verification.

All students of this workshop will learn how to safely specify scenarios. Technical students will learn how to automate scenarios safely, using popular tools like Cucumber, JBehave, or SpecFlow.
This course is key for product managers, product owners, analysts, testers and developers looking to improve their delivery capabilities.

I loved how the instructor discusses Agile best practices in the context of BDD/TDD.

The exercises on the second day really made me understand why the Given-When-Then statements need to be written in plain English and why they shouldn't focus on the solution.
