Episode notes

Why Examples Matter: Rethinking Requirements Free e-book: The 7 success factors of software testing. 25 years of project experience in one 33-page workbook, now also in English Get it for free "Learning by example is a human thing. And somehow, we have forgotten that with software development." - Gáspár Nagy In this episode, I talk with Gáspár Nagy about behavior driven development. We look at why a simple example can beat a specification. You do not learn soccer from a rulebook. You learn by playing and watching plays. BDD uses the same trick to build understanding early. We discuss example mapping, writing readable scenarios, and turning them into executable specs with Cucumber, SpecFlow, and Reqnroll. Done well, this guides vertical slices, shows progress, and stops the mini waterfall at the end of a sprint. Gáspár Nagy , the creator of SpecFlow & Reqnroll , bringing over 20 years of experience as a coach, trainer and test automation expert nowadays through his company, called Spec Solutions .
