BDD

BDD is a way for software teams to work that closes the gap between business people and technical people by:
- Encouraging collaboration across roles to build shared understanding of the problem to be solved
- Working in rapid, small iterations to increase feedback and the flow of value
- Producing system documentation that is automatically checked against the system’s behaviour

We are using Codecept & Cucumber to implement automated tests based on scenarios described in the Gherkin feature files.

Codecept

CodeceptJS is a modern end to end testing framework with a special BDD-style syntax.

Cucumber

Cucumber can be used to implement automated tests based on scenarios described in the Gherkin feature files.
