Test Automation With Gherkin Scenarios

BDD scenarios with TestComplete

Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) is a software development methodology combining technical aspects and business interests. This approach allows you to create test scenarios in plain English using Gherkin syntax, which follows a Given/When/Then format.

With native support for BDD scenarios in TestComplete, you can create or import feature files. Convert these feature files into user step templates by scripting or using record and replay. Automatically generate your test code once and reuse it multiple times from the same feature file.

Access TestComplete’s reporting features, CI/CD integrations, and source control integrations to gather valuable insights for your BDD scenarios.

Enable all stakeholders

Make test automation easier and faster for all users—regardless of technical expertise.

Gherkin syntax allows all stakeholders to align on how an application should behave. From business analysts to engineers, everyone can easily create and iterate on feature requests.

Avoid complex tool stacks

Don’t string multiple tools together. Convert feature files to step definitions in code and build automated UI functional tests seamlessly. With TestComplete you get an integrated IDE, a BDD interpreter for JavaScript and Python, and a test runner—all in one tool. No additional plug-ins or integrations are required.
