Behavior-Driven Development

Behavior Driven Development (BDD) is a software development approach that focuses on collaboration between developers, testers, and non-technical stakeholders. It encourages discussions about how an application should behave based on user needs. In BDD, requirements are defined in a clear, understandable language using scenarios that describe specific situations and expected outcomes, often formatted as "Given-When-Then." This helps ensure that everyone has a shared understanding of the desired functionality, leading to better software quality and alignment with user expectations. Ultimately, BDD aims to create software that effectively meets the needs of its users.
