More Information about Behave
==============================================================================
Tutorials
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For new users, that want to read, understand and explore the concepts in Gherkin
and `behave`_ (after reading the behave documentation):
* "`Behave by Example <http://behave.github.io/behave.example/>`_"
(on `github <https://github.com/behave/behave.example>`_)
The following small tutorials provide an introduction how you use `behave`_
in a specific testing domain:
* Phillip Johnson, `Getting Started with Behavior Testing in Python with Behave`_
* `Bdd with Python, Behave and WebDriver`_
* Wayne Witzel III, `Using Behave with Pyramid`_, 2014-01-10.
.. _`Getting Started with Behavior Testing in Python with Behave`: https://semaphoreci.com/community/tutorials/getting-started-with-behavior-testing-in-python-with-behave
.. _`Bdd with Python, Behave and WebDriver`: https://testingbot.com/support/getting-started/behave.html
.. _`Using Behave with Pyramid`: https://www.safaribooksonline.com/blog/2014/01/10/using-behave-with-pyramid/
.. warning::
A word of caution if you are new to **"behaviour-driven development" (BDD)**.
In general, you want to avoid "user interface" (UI) details in your
scenarios, because they describe **how something is implemented**
(in this case the UI itself), like:
* ``press this button``
* then ``enter this text into the text field``
* ...
In **BDD** (or testing in general), you should describe **what should be done**
(meaning the intention). This will make your scenarios much more robust
and stable because you can change the underlying implementation of:
* the "system under test" (SUT) or
* the test automation layer, that interacts with the SUT.
without changing the scenarios.
