NeuralBlitz What I do
- Write BDD scenarios in Gherkin syntax
- Create executable specifications
- Implement step definitions
- Test behavior over implementation
- Bridge technical and business communication
When to use me
When practicing BDD, creating living documentation, or improving team communication.
Gherkin Syntax
Core Keywords
Feature: Search functionality
As a user
I want to search for products
So that I can find what I'm looking for
Scenario: Successful search
Given I am on the search page
When I enter "laptop" in the search box
And I click the search button
Then I should see search results
And the results should contain "laptop"
Scenario: No results found
Given I am on the search page
When I enter "xyz123" in the search box
And I click the search button
Then I should see "No results found"
Gherkin Keywords
- Feature: High-level description
- Background: Preconditions for all scenarios
- Scenario: Individual test case
- Scenario Outline: Parametrized scenarios with Examples
- Given: Preconditions
- When: Actions/events
- Then: Expected outcomes
- And/But: Continue previous step
- DocString: Multi-line text
- DataTable: Structured data
Scenario Outline Example
Scenario Outline: Add items to cart
Given the product "<product>" costs "<price>"
When I add it to cart
Then my cart total should be "<total>"
Examples:
| product | price | total |
| Laptop | 1000 | 1000 |
| Mouse | 50 | 1050 |
BDD Best Practices
Writing Scenarios
- Focus on behavior, not UI
- Use business language
- One assertion per scenario
- Independent scenarios

Step Definitions
- Reusable steps
- Parameterization
- Helper methods
- Assertions
Tools
- Cucumber: Ruby, JS, Java, .NET
- Behave: Python
- SpecFlow: .NET
- JBehave: Java
Integration
- CI/CD pipeline integration
- Living documentation
- Reporting
- Tags for organization
