BDD with Cucumber Training by AcadNXT is designed to provide participants with practical, hands-on expertise in implementing Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) using Cucumber. This instructor-led program focuses on BDD principles, Gherkin syntax, feature file creation, step definition implementation, automated acceptance testing, test framework integration, and collaboration between business and technical teams. Participants will learn how to design readable and maintainable test scenarios that bridge communication gaps between stakeholders, developers, and QA teams. The course is ideal for QA engineers, automation testers, developers, and Agile teams adopting BDD practices.
