ATDD in Practice
The document discusses Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD), where acceptance tests are used to define requirements and drive the development process. It describes how ATDD works through a cycle of writing examples and tests, implementing features to pass the tests, and ensuring the tests continue to pass as changes are made. The benefits of ATDD include improved collaboration, a shared understanding of requirements, and preventing defects. Various tools that can be used for ATDD are also outlined, including FIT and Robot Framework. Adopting ATDD requires training, evangelism, and addressing organizational challenges through shared understanding.
