Wow! I've been wrong all my life! Thank you Naveen for your dedication, great knowledge, good practices, and VERY real scenarios taught during the course we just finished 2 days ago! I really want to recommend Naveen but I need to say that you need i bit of experience to achieve complete the course. A lot of new approaches, new tools, and the development of an entire infrastructure were the most exciting of this course! The framework will be designed from A to Z and you will be able to connect all together at the end. Framekork -> ngrok ->Git-> AWS(Jenkins ->SeleniumGrid or Selenoid) It is amazing! Thank you 1000 Naveen!

Thanks for standing up for QAs. Most companies don't implement BDD process very well. Its only left to QA to add BDD to their automation. Most Devs don't even practice it all and some BA may write U Stories and acceptance criteria in BDD if you are lucky. BDD was to improve on TDD and ATDD where 3 amigos have a common understanding from user behaviour of the application. And as such BDD should be meaningful to stakeholders in gherkin language (given = precondition, when = action, Then). In a proper BDD the actual dev code should follow the scenario or ac's . Dev still code in TDD and stakeholders expect QA to write only UI and API automation code in BDD. Thank you for addressing this issue too.

The prime issue is most of the interviewers do not understand this concept. Now during the interview, if they will ask us to explain the difference between BDD & TestNG, it will become a tragedy 😂

Thanks guru द्रोणाचार्य it's clear

[sundersandeep]

Very True.. BDD is an approach & it should be followed by Dev Testing team & BA or PO

[archanadubbaka]

You create a lifeline for QA's. Thank you so much Naveen ☺️

[prashantsTravelogue]

We are using cucumber tool not because we are following BDD approach but it helps in reusing steps across different projects .

Thankyou for this video, I would like to ask one question. Us as viewers, we get to learn new things, get to gain new information, news and stuffs related to our community from you through this channel. As a an individual where do you learn from, what is the process, what do you follow to keep yourself updated or to unlearn things which you thought was correct and learn it again how to was supposed to be.

Thanks again,
Azad

BDD is a concept cucumber is a framework

[rajeshgoruntula]

Hi Naveen, Thanks for the wonderful insight and clear picture on what exactly is BDD approach.

[Ajsnha]

Hello sir, Thank you for this series, faced multiple issues and fixed few so got learn more. thank you again.

[kasparmary]

Thanks Naveen, I am clear about the difference between framework and an approach.

[randomfood]

Thank you Naveen, In one interview, the interviewer asked me to name 7 frameworks. He meant BDD, TDD, KDD etc. I said BDD is not a framework, but he was not impressed and he started acting weird

[sumitgoyal]

Hi naveen you used cucumber framework in this video, It should be cucumber library ?? Correct me If Iam wrong Thanks

[chad-thuggins]

Thank you for saying this. The whole test automation community is quiet on the incorrect use of Cucumber. People use cucumber unnecessarily also where simple TestNg framework is sufficient.just doing it bcuz of management pressure

[konijetijagannath]

Thanks for explaining ....this was much needed...fyi to all

[universelove]

Hey Naveen....
Could you please make video on appium automation interview QA

[merlinelizabethmathew]

Thanks for the information.
Kindly provide the new credentials for Free CRM application for the practice purpose.

Framework, Approach, Process could be consider the same thing, all depends on the context. Many technology processes are part of a large framework. Also in development or coding we use framework to refer to tools. Simply put, a framework is a collection of tools or processes or methods. Always add context to it, BDD is a process framework and Cucumber is a development framework.

[vinaym]

Can you suggest me which framework is better. I am using python with selenium in pycharm.
Is it necessary to use framework?
