After Ashley's recent excellent intro to cucumber and BDD I have finally got around to getting it running. BTW, a belated BIG thank you to Ashley for a great presentation and a well run session.
The four scenarios I found I was interested in evaluating cucmber in are: rails (obviously), stand alone running against an embedded web server, a regular ruby app, and linking it to a set of existing external perl tests and programs. These evaluations are all done and now running nicely in their relative applications. For some time I have been wondering how to bring all the perl tests, in a perl app, together within a sensible top down test strategy. It looks like cucumber provides the glue. Currently I run these perl tests in batches using perl's test::more harness. Now with the wonder of cucumber I have integrate the ruby/perl world enabling me to build on the automation already in place around the perl app with BDD. Before going too much further with this approach does anyone know if this is already being done? If so can you point me in the right direction? --------------------------------- John Jones UK: (+44) (0)797 644-3043 "Ideas are like rabbits.
