Interactive Agile Acceptance Testing
Published March 15th, 2010 Under Software Testing | Leave a Comment
FitNesse and FIT are arguably the most popular framework for automated agile acceptance testing, due to its unique power to serve as team collaboration medium, system documentation and test automation tool in one simple open-source solution. In this interactive clinic, David Evans and Gojko Adzic discuss some of the common pitfalls faced by testers and teams in getting to grips with Fitnesse. We will show examples of good and bad acceptance tests, illustrating how different styles of fixtures lend themselves to different types of tests. We also highlight some of the features of Fitnesse that allow you to keep your tests expressive, useful and easy to maintain.

Acceptance-Test Driven Development – Bring Developers and Testers Together
Published March 3rd, 2010 Under Open Source Tools, Software Testing | Leave a Comment
Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) are powerful techniques, helping developers write better designed, more maintainable and more reliable code, and stay focused on the real user requirements. But how does the rest of the team fit in to the picture? In this talk, John Smart, creator of the Java Power Tools Bootcamp, looks at how BDD techniques, and tools such as easyb and FitNesse, can also act as drivers for the overall development process, and also as communication tools, giving testers and end-users clear and unambiguous feedback on what is being developed and where it is at in terms of delivery and schedule.

Agile communities consider stories “done” when the acceptance tests (also called story tests) are shown to the customer. Originally, this was a manual process, but in recent years, several frameworks have been created to automate this process, providing acceptance testing all the benefits of automated unit testing. One of the most popular of these if called FIT, created by Ward Cunningham.
