A tool stack for implementing Behaviour-Driven Development in Python Language

Software Engineering 2010-07-13 v1

Abstract

This paper presents a tool stack for the implementation, specification and test of software following the practices of Behavior Driven Development (BDD) in Python language. The usage of this stack highlights the specification and validation of the software's expected behavior, reducing the error rate and improving documentation. Therefore, it is possible to produce code with much less defects at both functional and unit levels, in addition to better serving to stakeholders' expectations.
