What is Behavior-Driven Development (BDD)?

Definition

Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) is an agile development methodology that encourages collaboration between developers, QA, and non-technical stakeholders to define the behavior of a system using plain language.

Details

BDD uses a 'Given-When-Then' format to describe scenarios, making tests readable as documentation. Tools like Cucumber or SpecFlow are often used to automate these executable specifications.
