Are you familiar with Behavior-Driven Development, or BDD for short?
\nAlthough the name suggests that the concept is for seasoned developers, it can be used by many more people than just programmers.
\nBDD eliminates miscommunication during development, for example.
\nClear communication is precisely what benefits every complex project.
\nDelta Source shares with you what non-developers can learn from BDD. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The specifications of <\/b>BDD<\/b><\/p>\n

The core of Behavior-Driven development consists of extensive testing.
\nHowever, the big advantage lies not in the extensive attention paid to the testing phase, but in the active use of continuous communication.
\nWith BDD, software development, the execution phase of a project, does not take place behind closed doors.
\nThe method encourages developers and non-developers to communicate openly and optimally with each other through unambiguous scenarios.
\nBusiness and development engage with each other, putting their noses in the same direction.
\nGoodbye separate islands, welcome close teamwork!

The added value of BDD<\/b><\/p>\n

Since BDD is little known to non-technicians but is packed with assets for their projects, Delta Source took an active role in promoting their knowledge a few years ago.
\nBecause of their years of experience, our managing partners Mark Noten<\/a> and Joeri Leemans<\/a> were invited to participate in the TETRA research project “First Time Right” of UCLL University College.
\nAccompanied by a group of innovative companies, we taught companies at the start of a new automation process to apply BDD step by step.
\nBy using a common language, the participating companies experienced the main benefits for themselves.
\nStrong documentation, smooth communication and quick feedback: what’s not to like? <\/p>\n

“In practice, the distance between business and development is often greater than thought. Behavior-Driven Development aims to bridge that gap. There is a lot of focus on testing and technical specifications are cast in bite-sized language. These scenarios make it easier, for everyone involved in the project, to understand what it is about. Of course, such clear language also comes in handy outside of software development!”<\/p>\n
