The <\/span>software<\/span><\/a> have changed. Long gone are those archaic models of the 1950s and, even more so, the mathematician Ada Lovelace and her Babbage logic machine. Like all technology, it evolves. <\/span>As the years go by, its complexity increases.<\/b> As a result, new methodologies are emerging to assess their quality. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

One of the most current is BDD or Behaviour Driven Development, a behaviour-driven development that is very effective for teamwork.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In this article we will delve into <\/span>What is BDD and why is this form of software development important?<\/b>. Read on and discover its usefulness when developing a computer programme or application.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is BDD or Behaviour Driven Development?<\/span><\/h2>\n

First of all, BDD stands for Behaviour Driven Development. In other words, by <\/span>behaviour-driven development<\/b>. A <\/span>software development process<\/span><\/a>whose origin dates back to Testing.<\/span><\/p>\n

This software development strategy proposes <\/span>a common language, both for the technical and business side of things<\/b>and its use for development and testing. One of its main advantages is that in this way all members of a team are familiar with the software development, because it is in an understandable form.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, any comments on the development of the programme or app by project members with basic computer skills or even by the client will be possible. <\/span>BDD enables joint work<\/b>The programming expert should be given the opportunity to discuss, before the programming expert starts writing the code.<\/span><\/p>\n

Creating software with BDD is synonymous with a better end product.<\/b><\/p>\n

How does the BDD technique work?<\/span><\/h3>\n

How does BDD or Behaviour Driven Development work?<\/b> First of all, BDD specifications are not done with a standard text. No, you have to use tools like Cucumber to translate these commands into a programming language. Later, we will see more examples of BDD tools.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thus, in order to know how this software development methodology works, it is necessary to go ahead:<\/span><\/p>\n
