Accelerating Agile with BDD. Practical Guide for Testers and Teams | Ashwini Lalit

BDD (Behavior-Driven Development) is an agile approach comprising three key practices: discovery, formulation, and automation. This methodology aims to improve software development by reducing ambiguities, enhancing collaboration, and creating living documentation.

In BDD, acceptance tests stay stable because business rules change less than the UI. They can be written before the UI and describe business actions that guide development, serving as the application’s business vocabulary.

The workshop helps participants align business and development through BDD, breaking the myth that it’s just test automation. With hands-on sticky note exercises (80% text, 20% code), and GenAI to speed up scenario creation, we’ll create clear, working specifications and validate their relevance effectively.
