Behavior driven development com automação de testes utilizando cypress: um estudo de caso

Abstract

This work aimed to analyze the impacts and results of test automation with the aid of the BDD (Behavior Driven Development) methodology, test scenarios, and user stories in a logistics application. Some of the steps taken to achieve this were to analyze how BDD helps the quality and development team in the process of creating tests using the Cypress tool (a framework for test automation), as well as to understand how the quality and development team automates test scenarios; and to elaborate suggestions for improvements or point out weaknesses, through the analysis of the case study, comparing it with the presented theories. From the data analysis, it was possible to perceive an increase in software quality through the automation of test scenarios. The participants also identified advantages in the use of BDD, such as the reduction of rework related to the development effort.
