bdd with ``tick spec``
DESCRIPTION
TickSpec is a lightweight Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) framework for C# and F#. Specify the behaviour of your system in plain text with the Gherkin business language. Then run and debug your text specifications from inside Visual Studio. This talk will look at some lessons learned from some recent projects where BDD was applied. Starting with insights from Business Analyst Anne-Marie King and Tester James Banton, including tips on how to get started constructing good specifications, along with some developer tips.TRANSCRIPT
