Course
Behaviour Driven Development
Behaviour-driven development is one of the key enablers for automating acceptance tests and functional tests for systems. BDD allows us to capture and validate the rules governing the behaviour of our code. The course is taught through presentation, demos, hands-on labs and directed discussions. The course introduces how to capture acceptance criteria as scenarios and then to create Step Definition files using Java, C#, or an alternative language of your choice to build out the automated tests using Cucumber.
Duration: 1 day
Who is it for: This training course is aimed at developers and analysts and testers
Layout: The training course combines lectures with practical exercises that help the delegates to put what they have learned on the training course into practice. The exercises specifically build on what has been recently taught and are built up as the training course progresses.
