| Posted: 19 Mar 2012 11:29 AM PDT Book DescriptionMatt Wynne and Aslak Hellesøy show you how to express your customers' wild ideas as a set of clear, executable specifications that everyone on the team can read. You'll learn how to feed those examples into Cucumber and let it guide your development. You'll build just the right code to keep your customers happy, and not a line more. Although it was born in the Ruby community, you can use Cucumber to test almost any system, from a simple shell script or Perl script, to web applications written in PHP, Java, or any platform. In Part 1, you'll get started by using the core features of Cucumber and working with Cucumber's Gherkin DSL to describe—in plain language—the behavior your customers want from the system. Then you'll write Ruby code that interprets those plain-language specifications and checks them against your application. If you're new to Cucumber, this part of the book will teach you everything you need to know to get started. In Part 2, you'll consolidate the knowledge you've gained with a worked example, where you'll learn more advanced Cucumber techniques. You'll also learn how to test asynchronous systems and systems that use a database. In Part 3, you'll find a selection of recipes for some of the most difficult and commonly seen situations the authors have helped teams solve. With these patterns and techniques, you'll learn how to test Ajax-heavy web applications with Capybara and Selenium, REST web services, Ruby on Rails applications, command-line applications, legacy applications, and more. Written by the creator of Cucumber and one of its most experienced users and contributors, The Cucumber Book is an authoritative guide that will give you and your team all the knowledge you need to start using Cucumber with confidence.
