This is a one-day introduction to Example-Driven Development for anyone involved in producing software. You will learn how to use examples to communicate business requirements between all the roles on the team, and keep development focussed. You will also learn how to write examples that are easy to read and easy to verify, so that they can be “baked” into the whole development cycle and prove that the customer’s requirements have been met.

The course uses the popular FIT framework to demonstrate how to communicate requirements with examples. It’s intended for everyone involved in software, including customers, so there is no coding involved.

The course has been developed by Steve Freeman and Mike Hill, two established presenters who will discuss their experiences of Example-Driven Development on multiple projects. They will talk about how Example-Driven Development fits into the the larger development process and how to maintain the Examples over the lifetime of a project.

Throughout the course, there will be a series of worked exercises in which you will gain hands-on experience of Example-Driven Development.
