BDD as a practice has been around for almost two decades now, but it is still largely misunderstood in the software development community. Time to try and change that!

In this webinar, you will see what BDD looks like when done well, as we take a user story from start to finish through the three phases of the textbook BDD process: Discovery, Formulation and Automation. Along the way, we will tackle common misconceptions about BDD, learn more about good and bad Gherkin and see what role BDD tools like Behave / pytest-bdd actually play in the process.

After this webinar, you will have learned more about BDD, the value that it can bring to your software development process, and how to avoid common mistakes when practicing BDD.
