Uses examples to illustrate behavior
Core is around conversations and requirements discovery
Uses conversations around examples, expressed In a form
that can be easily automated
Starting with the business outcome, and working through
high level functional areas to drill into specific stories with
acceptance criteria.
When writing examples, regression tests are a by-product

SPECIFICATION BY EXAMPLE…
Specification by example is a way to:
Express outcomes
Focus is on a story/ feature not a test.
Focus is to deliver business value.

CUCUMBER

Collaboration tool
It’s Testing tool
Outside-In approach , where programmers incrementally write code
and run the scenarios using Cucumber until the feature passes all the
tests
Supports about 60+ languages
Helps to execute plain text functional descriptions as automated tests
Automation can be written in own favorite language ( Ruby, Java,
c#.net , JavaScript, Scala, Groovy, Jython, Python, Perl, Go, C++ etc)
writing scenarios before code enables programmers to be guided by
an unambiguous specification

SCENARIO
Scenario: [An example]
Given [pre-condition]
When [action]
Then [the benefit of action]

LET’S LOOK AT AN
EXAMPLE
Given John bought a fridge for £150
And the fridge was on 10% discount
When the store offers a refund
Then John should get back £135

14. http://www.unicomlearning.com/2016/Test_Automation_Agile_Testing_

BENEFITS
Better communication
Better collaboration between stakeholders; QA, BA and
Developers
Formal documentation is not required
Living documentation (Single source of truth)
Quick feedback
Right Focus, Right Product, Product Right

and_DevOps_Summit_Hyderabad/
Given John bought a fridge for £150
And the fridge was on 10% discount
And there was a discount of 10%
When John presents a valid credit card
Then John is charged only £135
When John returns the fridge
Then the fridge is checked if it is in working order
And refund preference is recorded
ANTI-PATTERN: EXAMPLE

PITFALLS
It requires high level of business engagement and
collaborations
May not work with silos
Poorly written features can lead higher maintenance costs
