Behave

Prev Next

Behave is a behavior-driven testing framework, akin to Cucumber, Cucumber-JVM, and SpecFlow. In this framework, test scenarios are expressed using plain specification language instead of direct programming code. These "behavior specs" outline the desired behavior, and the steps can be shared among various test cases or scenarios. This distinguishes it from traditional frameworks like unittest and pytest. While not an official Cucumber variant, behave employs the Gherkin language ("Given-When-Then") for specifying behaviors.
