Acceptance Testing with ReqnRoll

In the course Acceptance Testing with ReqnRoll from SpiralTrain, participants learn to use the open source ReqnRoll BDD framework to write and execute acceptance tests in a C# and dotNET environment.

ReqnRoll Intro

This module introduces ReqnRoll as a modern replacement for SpecFlow. It covers Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD), Visual Studio integration, installation, configuration, and core concepts such as user stories, scenarios, and features.

Gherkin Keywords

Participants learn about Gherkin syntax and keywords like Feature, Background, Scenario, Given, When, Then, And, But, and Scenario Outlines. Writing clean and understandable feature files is emphasized.

Step Definitions

This module explains how to map Gherkin steps to automation code. Topics include step definition files, templates, parameterizing with regular expressions, using the features and format options, and sharing data across steps.

Data Driven Testing

Learners explore how to parameterize tests using Scenario Outlines and Data Tables. Topics include raw methods, maps in tables, implementing data-driven steps, and debugging failed scenarios.

ReqnRoll Hooks

This module introduces hooks such as Before, After, Around, and Step hooks (BeforeStep and AfterStep). Tagged hooks and lambda-style syntax for defining hooks are demonstrated.

ReqnRoll Tags

Participants learn to use tags for grouping scenarios, scoping hooks, ignoring tests, and documenting features. Tag expressions and tag inheritance are also covered.

Advanced Topics

Advanced content includes migrating from SpecFlow, CI/CD pipeline integration, interpreting test reports, debugging tests, and optimizing performance.

Optional: NUnit

This optional module introduces NUnit integration with ReqnRoll. Topics include assert statements, test fixtures, annotations, test suites, parallel execution, and parameterized tests.
