Summary

BDD (Behavior-Driven Development) is a software development methodology that aims to reduce common wasteful activities in software development by improving communication between business and technical people. However, its implementation can be problematic when automation engineers create BDD test automation without following the principles and ideas of BDD, resulting in extra dependencies and abstractions, struggles with parallelization, and incorrect Gherkin syntax. As a result, these issues hinder the expected benefits of BDD and add complexity to the automation process.
