Agile Specifications, BDD and Testing eXchange: Antony Marcano & Andy Palmer on Narrative Acceptance Tests - A Behaviour Driven Approach
Narrative Acceptance Tests - A Behaviour Driven Approach
Narrative Acceptance Tests River Glide Antony Marcano
Acceptance Tests elaborate a user story & are essentially behaviour specifications, expressing examples of how the application will actually be used. These should represent customer-intent in terms the customer understands.

This session shows developers and testers how to transcribe their understanding of customer intent in a way that makes sense to customers. Using the popular BDD Given/When/Then approach to acceptance tests, participants will learn how to leverage the popular Fit framework to replicate that approach. Alternatives to using Fit, including using code, will also be explored.
