Description:

Cucumber’s plain text language for describing an application’s behaviour has become a popular tool for many Ruby and Rails teams. What’s all the fuzz about?

In this session you will see how Cucumber and BDD can be used on a real Rails project. You will learn how to install and run Cucumber and how to write features using Webrat and other related tools. I will also share my experience about how to write well-formed features and scenarios, and how to deal with common problematic situations.

The presentation will be in the form of a small, fast paced project, alternating between customer-team conversations and real-time programming with Cucumber and Rails.
