Agile Specifications, BDD and Testing eXchange: Dan North on How to sell BDD to the business -

How to sell BDD to the business -
I don't care how you do it - I just want it better, faster and cheaper and I don't want you to keep bugging me

In this talk, Dan shares his experiences of introducing BDD and Agile principles to senior stakeholders and business executives. Download the slides here
