Cucumber.js: Cuke up your JavaScript!
A year ago, native BDD solutions similar to Cucumber were almost inexistant. Yet the need for it was manifest. It didn't take me long before I proposed and started hacking on the port of our favourite cucurbitaceae.
Cucumber.js is a native JavaScript implementation of Cucumber. It is a strict port that can run on any JavaScript environment. It runs on Node.js as well as within any browsers, making it virtually serviceable against everything producing JavaScript and HTML (Node.js, Ruby on Rails, PHP, .Net, etc.).
This is an introduction to the young Cucumber.js. After briefly exposing the history and goals of the project, I'll demonstrate how to write features, step definitions, hooks, support code, how to invoke it from both Node.js and browser environments.

User Centred Scenarios: Describing capabilities, not solutions

Just enough infrastructure for product development with cucumber
Featuring Michael Nacos
User-centric product features often span multiple subsystems of a service stack. For example, user state changed in a web app may affect routing of their emails, which is handled by a daemon.
Cucumber helps us concentrate on the user and decouple product features from their implementation. At the...

BDD: When Outcomes don't Come Out
Featuring Liz Keogh
BDD is largely a goal-driven approach: we start from a context and explore whether some particular event will lead to the outcome we want.
So how does it work when the outcomes are unclear, or you're just trying to find out what's possible? When finding examples changes the examples, is...

Speeding up tests with parallel execution using SpecRun
Featuring Gaspar Nagy
BDD tests usually exercise the application with external dependencies. The benefits of end-to-end testing are well known, but these tests tend to have a long execution time. SpecRun aims to speed up the execution of the (SpecFlow) functional tests by parallelizing them. This session summarizes...
