- 3. TDD Test Driven Development
- 4. TDD in summary ● First we write a test. ● Then we write code to make the test pass. ● Then we find the best possible design for what we have - re-factoring (Relying on the existing tests to keep us from breaking things while we are at it)
- 6. Steps to start TDD ● Analyze the requirements and write the list of tasks or features ● Pick a task ● Brainstorm a list of tests for the task or feature ● Review the tests list and pick a test ● Write the test case ● Run the test case and see it fails to compile ● Write only enough code that the test case compiles ● Run the test and see running the code fails ● Write only enough code to just pass the test ● Re-factor the production code and eliminate duplication ● Repeat
- 7. BDD Behavior Driven Development
- 10. Why BDD ● It provides framework for matching the simplicity of the customers requests against an actual running application and reporting back what is working and what is not ● From the developers point of view, it validates that they are not missing anything at the higher level their unit tests may have missed. ● Gherkin is the language that Cucumber understands. It is a Business Readable, Domain Specific Language that lets you describe software’s behavior without detailing how that behavior is implemented. ● Reusable, copy & paste
