Why Steak over Cucumber (for Ruby acceptance testing)
- deleted 16y ago[deleted]
- seivan 16y agoAnother reason: I find it hard to connect certain given/then/when to the relevant steps in larger projects. But maybe that's just me :) Any ideas around that would be appreciated. I take it in steak you just call a general method. Just do a find in project and bom :) there it is. It's harder with steps (longer sentences) I guess it is doable though...
- MEHColeman 16y ago> Plain text have no value if people writing and reading the specs are developers. I disagree. Language shapes thinking to a certain degree, and Cucumber can help put yourself in a useful mindset for describing specs. I think he has a point with the last comment though, most (though not all) of the benefit comes upfront. Mind you, that's the best place to have a benefit :)
