Key benefits of BDD

  • All development work can be traced back directly to business objectives.
  • Software development meets user need. Satisfied users = good business.
  • Efficient prioritization - business-critical features are delivered first.
  • All parties have a shared understanding of the project and can be involved in the communication.
  • A shared language ensures everyone (technical or not) has thorough visibility into the project’s progression.
  • Resulting software design that matches existing and supports upcoming business needs.
  • Improved quality code reducing costs of maintenance and minimizing project risk.
The BDD approach can largely be divided into two main parts. The first is the practice of using examples written in ubiquitous language to illustrate behaviors (how users will interact with the product).
The second part is the practice of using those examples as the basis of automated tests. As well as checking functionality for the user, this ensures the system works as defined by the business throughout the project lifetime.
In BDD, business value and user requirement are never secondary during development.
The concept of BDD was introduced by Dan North, an experienced technology and organisational consultant based in London, as a means of clearing confusion between testers, developers and business people.

Verify Specific Position of an Element

By -
Verify Specific Position of an Element Selenium IDE indicates the position of an element by measuring (in pixels) how far it is from the left or top edge of the browser window. ·          verifyElementPositionLeft   - verifies if the specified number of pixels match the distance of the element from the left edge of the page. This will return FALSE if the value specified does not match the distance from the left edge. ·          verifyElementPositionTop   - verifies if the specified number of pixels match the distance of the element from the top edge of the page. This will return FALSE if the value specified does not match the distance from the top edge.

Read it out for TESTNG before going for an iterview

How to run a group of test cases using TestNG? TestNG allows you to perform sophisticated groupings of test methods. Not only can you declare that methods belong to groups, but you can also specify groups that contain other groups. Then TestNG can be invoked and asked to include a certain set of groups (or regular expressions) while excluding another set.  This gives you maximum flexibility in how you partition your tests and doesn’t require you to recompile anything if you want to run two different sets of tests back to back. Groups are specified in your testng.xml file and can be found either under the <test> or <suite> tag. Groups specified in the <suite> tag apply to all the <test> tags underneath. @Test (groups = { "smokeTest", "functionalTest" }) public void loginTest(){ System.out.println("Logged in successfully"); }   How to create Group of Groups in TestNG? Groups can also inc...
