Start from here : BDD - Behavior Driven Development

If you are quiet new to BDD : Behavior Driven Development , start with this video by Matt Wynne. Shows you the following things quickly and visually.

    1. BDD Syntax (or  Keywords) like Given / When / And / Then / Scenario / Feature - These are also know as Gherkin language or Ubiquitous language 
    2. The Software tools that are used for BDD Cucumber and Capybara 
    3. And you see how a BDD Test flow: 
      1. Specification (Story) -> Steps -> Passing parameters to steps -> Running the test -> Execution: Watch the tool runs a Browser and populated the fields (Parameter) -> Final results.
    4. You get to know how effective it is to test a Web Application with BDD tools.
    5. And now you know what BDD is :
      1. Define a behavior as STORY that could be understood by all stack holders in the project.
      2. Define the Test with UBIQUITOUS LANGUAGE Syntax
      3. Easy to User Acceptance Team to communicate with Technology Team and other way around.
 


Getting started with Cucumber and Capybara from Matt Wynne on Vimeo.


Though the tool Cucumber (http://cukes.info/) is written in Ruby and you will also have to use Ruby to write your BDD Steps and run, there is a .net version available by Specflow (http://www.specflow.org/specflownew/).

Please add your comments and other tools and practices for BDD below might help others move fast forward!

Agentic AI growth could make GenAI providers to charge $1000-$2000 per month - #Cathywood , here is how.

      #Cathywood predicts that as the #agenticgenai grows the #GenAI service providers like openai, gemini, Copilot, etc will be able to charge $1000 - $2000 per month to their business customers. And she adds, "this is going to happen". Why this is important: Remember #Cathywood made a monster call in 2018, predicting that Tesla would hit $4,000 in five years. And eventually Tesla hit Wood's price target, with shares closing at $816, or $4,080 on a split adjusted basis (Jan. 2021). How this could happen: #AgenticGenAi means , 1. Integrating a business service with GenAI providers like Gemini/ChatGPT as an agent and make available in the chat interface. 2. Less human interaction and more calls to the GENAI Models. Nothing totally new, its similar to 'Ok google play a song from spotify' 'Alexa, order 8 pack dove on amazon' For example, when booking a flight, instead of navigating a complex travel website, users can simply provide a text prompt...

Will Software engineer salary hit $1 million by year 2030

Are today’s Developers over loaded with too many tasks?! In 90s and till late 2000s there were many different job positions in an IT team that only do certain task. There was no Frontend engineers and backend engineers as most of the applications were thin clients in the browser side as the internet band width was very slow. There were jobs like Database Admins, Server Admins, Site Admins and so on to deal with one specific task.   Ever since the Startup culture took off again after the dotcom boom in the mid 2000s , in many cases the founder(s) had to do all tasks. Every single thing involved in the complete SDLC are done by one or two founders and hence there is more in their plate to get funding , business development etc.   And as the World internet infrastructure moved from dialup to DSL to Broadband, the browser apps became THICK CLIENTS. The corporate companies now started adopting Startup cultures into their companies IT strategy and thus Agile SDLC beca...
