What is this workshop about?

In this workshop you will be introduced to Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD). In addition to building the software right, you will learn how to also build the right software, that meets the requirements of your client. You will learn why the concept of BDD was established and how it has evolved since it was first coined. The core concepts of BDD will be explained thoroughly and you will not only be able to understand what BDD is, but also what it’s not. BDD, for example, is not a tool, but rather a set of practices aiming to improve collaboration and communication among all members of the team (i.e. product owner, developer, testers, etc.) with the aim of discovering the unknown and reducing misunderstandings. Lastly, you will learn how you can use BDD in your own projects, based on your own maturity level, with the help of our custom BDD matrix.
