As usual very comprehensive content. Sir one quick question, in BDD process there is no scope for manual test or it is only automated test from the begining. It would be great if you can also help us to understand how BDD works ha d in hand with the agile environment. With due respect your disciple.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi, BDD involves all, and the purpose is to share and collaborate so all teams have common understanding of the scenarios and use cases. So even the manual testing can use the feature files to run test cases

[@beasty007]

Is it possible to implement threading in BBD? Like in BBD we have steps in the scenario file, so I want only one step that when executed in the scenario file then only that step should be executed in parallel. For example - We have 4 lines in BBD scenario file. I want the third line to be executed in parallel because execution of third line step takes 10mins alone and step 4 isn't dependent on the 3rd step, so I wanted to speed up and save that 10mins by running it in parallel.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Abhishek, will need to check some online example and resources for this

[@beasty007]

Hi Raghav....whic is better for career cucumber bdd with java or robot framework python??

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Abhishek Both Cucumber BDD with Java and Robot Framework with Python are popular and powerful automation tools in the software testing industry. The choice between the two ultimately depends on your personal preference, the specific requirements of your project, and the skills and experience you already have. Cucumber BDD with Java is a popular framework for Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) that uses a plain-text language called Gherkin to describe the behavior of an application. Java is a widely used programming language with a large community and a vast number of libraries and resources available. If you are comfortable with Java and enjoy writing code in it, then Cucumber BDD with Java can be a great option for you. On the other hand, Robot Framework with Python is a generic test automation framework that uses a keyword-driven approach to describe the tests. Python is a simple and easy-to-learn programming language with a wide range of libraries and resources available for automation. If you are comfortable with Python and enjoy writing code in it, then Robot Framework with Python can be a great option for you. Both frameworks have their own strengths and weaknesses, and the best choice depends on the specific requirements of your project and your personal preference. It is also worth noting that having experience with both Java and Python can be an added advantage in the software testing industry. I will suggest that you can learn both and many others, in this industry we have to keep updating ourselves and keep learning new and more tools and technologies

[@abhishekkumar-jw6rl]

[@juhiandmamma8213]

sir which is the latest methd to follow in test documentation and management ? is test management is tool based or can we opt bdd for test documentation

[@RaghavPal]

It depends on the team and org. If they are following BDD or not

[@karankundar7276]

can we define test suites in BDD ?

[@RaghavPal]

Yes, can use Features and Scenarios for that

[@aravind0635]

My team is asking below questions. Does BDD automation is really required? BDD is just additional layer. There is no quantifiable benefits out of it. Can you please help here.

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Aravind, that is a very valid question and I always say that you first analyze and check if BDD will work for you as it is a organization wide practice and implementing BDD only in QA team may not realize its full benefits, In this series I have discussed al this kzbin.info/aero/PLhW3qG5bs-L_hJZ3Nfg70ejkH3ktyzy34

[@blufilmsesa]

So cucumber takes the documentation you write for automation test and turns it into real code / actual tests?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Coby, we write the tests as user stories in Gherkin language and then we also have to write the code to support the statements. This will help you further kzbin.info/aero/PLhW3qG5bs-L_hJZ3Nfg70ejkH3ktyzy34

So, BA should be the one writing the feature files, correct?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Đăng, there will be a session on BDD Roles and Responsibilities, In general the BA or Product Owner will write User Stories and also Examples to discuss in the Discover meeting and in that meeting the Final Examples are agreed upon by the group, which then get formulated and documented as Features

Hello Sir, I was following your cucumber bdd video with selenium , and parallely i was trying to automate my project. Now the project of mine takes the google sign in of my organization, and there is a okta multi factor authentication added to it (text message or push notification sent to mobile). Please help me with this scenario Sir, where i open the app, click on sign in with google, enter my email id, again enter netwrk id n paswd, okta verification code(either text message or push notification)., finally i will land to the home page of application. Need your inputs/help/reference in automating this process?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Divyendu, you will need to add the scripts for this. I will suggest to check with your team (dev, qa), if this can be disabled in testing env.
