Introduction

Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) is an evolution in the thinking behind TestDrivenDevelopment. It brings together ideas from TestDrivenDevelopment and DomainDrivenDesign into an integrated whole, making the relationship between these two powerful approaches to software development more evident.

Getting started with BDD style Context/Specification base naming (Jean-Paul S. Boodhoo)
Tips on using a natural sentence style test naming approach.

BDD Specification Base Class (Jean-Paul S. Boodhoo)
A base class in C# you can use to start writing your own BDD style specification code. This is the same class you can find in JP's Google codebase and similar in style and content to what others are creating.

Approaching BDD (David Laribee)
David walks through an example of using BDD in a test naming strategy and style in order to explain the motivations behind the major elements of a codebase he's working on for a front controller for windows forms.

StoryQ
A C# 3.5 framework for Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD). Similar to nBehave, but overall simplier. It is made to work within NUnit and MSUnit test runner lifecycles to make integration easier. Stories can be created either in plain text and then passively generated as C# (using to WPF application) or are directly entered in tests. Output is either to console or to html files. We include these html files on the build server for visibility beyond the developers. Each story's output is either pending, passed or failed - just as you would expect from NUnit.
