Joy of acceptance test automation with Cucumber - Marit van Dijk

13:30 - 14:30 lightning talk

Joining a Scrum team as the first tester was challenging, since I’m not a ‘traditional’ tester. My test experience is in automation, while the team was expecting manual regression testing.

Early on, I introduced Cucumber; a Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) tool to automate acceptance tests.

This talk will highlight the intended - and unintended - benefits using Cucumber has brought to my team. You will learn what Cucumber could do for you, and when not to use it.
