Presentation: "RSpec"

Track: Programming Tools

Time: Wednesday 12:45 - 13:45

Location: Lokale 2A12, 2. floor

Abstract:

Are you writing code that never gets used? Are you struggling to make the code fit your requirements?

Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) is a fresh breathe of air in the agile community, and its primary focus is to deliver software that matters. -For the end users. BDD builds upon several agile tools and practices like Acceptance-Test Driven Planning, Example-Driven Devlopment, FIT, User Stories and TDD, and bring them together in a consistent whole.

This presentation will give an introduction to the principles and practices of BDD and demonstrate RSpec's two frameworks: Plain text User Stories and Object-level examples.
