Patterns and Practices of building Gherkin based living documentations
Implementing your first user story is easy: describe your first Gherkin scenario (Given/When/Then) and implement it outside-in using TDD.
But as the system grows, several questions arise that you will need answer:
- How do you organize feature documentations and keep an overview?
- How do you find the right balance between abstractness and concreteness of your examples to ensure readability and maintainability?
- On which level do you bind the automation and what are the trade-offs?
- How do you organize refinement of requirements to keep the feature stream flowing?
Gaspar and Christian have collected their working experiences of several .NET projects using SpecFlow. In their presentation, they will discuss questions they ran into when doing BDD with SpecFlow and possible answers they found.
