Acceptance Test Driven Development

Summary

Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) is a software development methodology where acceptance tests are defined before the code is written, guiding development and ensuring that the final output meets user requirements.

Detailed Description

Acceptance Test Driven Development is an agile approach that emphasizes collaboration among software developers, testers, and business stakeholders. In ATDD, acceptance criteria for a feature are defined in the form of acceptance tests before the coding begins. This ensures clarity of requirements and helps in identifying potential issues early in the development cycle. The acceptance tests serve as a specification and guide for both development and testing phases, ensuring that the delivered software meets the expected functionality and user needs.
