We launched Deveroom two month ago. It is time now to stop for a moment and have a look at where we are now and what the next steps for the product will be. We have great news to share.

Example mapping is a collaborative technique for discussing requirement details. It is typically used to discuss the details of a user story at a sprint planning or sprint planning preparation meeting. In an example mapping session, we break down the user story to rules (acceptance criteria), then illustrate and understand these rules using examples. The story, the rules and the examples are written onto index cards or sticky notes which make the example map. The technique was described by Matt Wynne (there is a good overview about it in Matt’s blog post) and we also discuss it in detail in our book with Seb Rose (Discovery: Explore behaviour using examples; BDD Books 1).

Dear BDD Addicts,
March was a dev-active month for me. I had a great SpecFlow course in Bradford (UK), but this month I spent quite a lot of time on development as well. I like this mixture, because I always learn something new about BDD, test automation and test-driven development. This month was more about learning about DevOps as my new Visual Studio extension for SpecFlow, Deveroom went online, so I had to find the way how to handle the integration challenges on the different installations. I will probably talk about that later more in detail.
But now… the April dose.

I am happy to announce the product that I have been working a lot on recently: Deveroom – a new Visual Studio extension for SpecFlow.
SpecFlow had Visual Studio integration right from the beginning. The original “SpecFlow for Visual Studio” extension has been developed originally for Visual Studio 2008 with a Java-based Gherkin parser. Both Visual Studio and the Gherkin parser have significantly changed through the years and it became more and more difficult to maintain that project. It was time to rewrite.
With Deveroom my goal is to support the SpecFlow and BDD community with a good and sustainable Visual Studio integration.
