Lean-Agile Acceptance Test-Driven Development: Better Software Through Collaboration
Description
In Acceptance Test Driven Development
(ATDD), developers work with customers and testers to create
acceptance tests that thoroughly describe how software should work
from the customer’s viewpoint. By tightening the links
between customers and agile teams, ATDD can significantly improve
both software quality and developer productivity. This is the firststart-to-finish, real-world
guide to ATDD for every agile project participant. Leading agile
consultant Kenneth Houston Pugh begins with a dialogue among a
developer, tester, and customer, explaining the “what, why,
where, when, and how” of ATDD and illuminating the experience
of participating in it. Next, Pugh presents a practical, complete
reference to each facet of ATDD, from creating simple tests to
evaluating their results. He concludes with five diverse case
studies, each identifying a realistic set of problems and
challenges, together with proven solutions. Coverage
includes
How to develop software with fully
testable requirements
How to simplify and componentize tests and
use them to identify missing logic
How to test user interfaces, service
implementations, and other elements of a software system
How to identify requirements that are best
handled outside software
How to present test results, evaluate
them, and use them to assess overall progress
How to build acceptance tests that serve
development organizations, not just customers
How to scale ATDD to even the largest
projects
