Why Is Specflow Used

SpecFlow is a BDD framework for . NET which boosts your productivity by helping you with writing your feature files and automation code in your favorite IDE using C# and . NET methods.

Why do we use SpecFlow?

It is used to express user stories and their expectations in a behavior-driven development (BDD) environment. Even though SpecFlow was inspired by the Cucumber framework, using SpecFlow has a number of advantages over Cucumber which is a natural progression in the way we test and understand technology.

What is the difference between Cucumber and SpecFlow?

Cucumber is an application that reads Gherkin syntax plain text specification files and runs ruby files to execute those specifications. Specflow is a ‘port’ of cucumber for . net that also uses Gherkin syntax files but wires them up to . net code.
