Natural Language UI Testing using Behavior Driven Development with Pavlov and QUnit

A talk (to be) given at jQuery Conference: San Francisco Bay Area 2011 on 4/17/2011 by Eric DeLabar

Using concepts borrowed from the RSpec and Cucumber projects we'll explore the process of converting a stakeholder-readable design specification of a user interface feature into a QUnit test suite.

We'll use the excellent Pavlov behavioral API to to produce readable, high-level tests that describe and test the way a UI works, not the way it should be programmed. Once a few tests are written, we'll implement the feature using the typical TDD red, green, refactor approach.

Throughout the talk, all of our examples will attempt to provide a real-world implementation of TDD without boiling it down to a simple abstraction that requires too much interpretation to apply to production code.
