Behaviour Driven Development & Behat: Telling Stories Through Code by Matt Brunt

Stories? Scenarios? BDD? Are these just more words in the ever-growing list of jargon that developers have to know? Or are they something more important than new terms to memorise?

In this session we’ll look at how BDD fits into the software development work-flow, how to tell user stories through features, and how to automate them in Behat.

These techniques will help to ensure you’re writing well designed and tested software that focuses on what the users want from a system.
