Thomas Sundberg – BDD with Cucumber JVM
Summary
Behaviour Driven Development, BDD, is a great way to drive the development of a system based solely on the desired behaviour. Using Cucumber-JVM for Java will allow us to express the desired behaviour with examples so a non developer can understand what will work and what is expected of the system.
This is a tool that allows development teams to describe how software should behave in plain text. The text is written in a business-readable domain-specific language and serves as documentation, automated test and development-aid – all rolled into one format.
