To learn more, please see LightBDD.ScenarioSync wiki pages, or jump straight to:

• Getting Started
• Scenario Sync CLI
• See latest release details on Releases page

Project description

ScenarioSync for Azure DevOps, integrates the BDD process with Azure DevOps by connecting and synchronizing the LightBDD scenarios with Test Cases. This way of the development reduce time spend to maintain actuality of scenarios in code and Azure DevOps.

• ScenarioSync and LightBDD framework is a good alternative to SpecSync and SpecFlow framework.
• ScenarioSync use LightBDD labels with "Relations:" metadata to assign Scenarios to Related Work Items in Azure DevOps.
• Labels with "Sync:" metadata uses to link Scenario method to Test Case Associated Automation, that relation allow to run Automated Test Cases directly from Azure Devops Test Plan during release.
• ScenarioSync works similar to SpecSync but uses LightBDD FeaturesReport.xml file as a source and base on it import Test Suites and Test Cases to Azure DevOps, Test suites and Test Cases that are not in source report removed from Azure DevOps.

Light BDD Scenario

• Example copied from Demo project Contacts_management.cs.
• To assign scenario to related User Story or Task RelationsAttribute attribute could be used.
• To include scenario to synchronization use SyncAttribute.

[Scenario]
[Label("Test-label")]
[Relations(234, 235)]
[Sync(nameof(Contacts_management), nameof(Searching_for_contacts_by_phone))]
// [Label("Relations:230,235")]
// [Label("Sync:Demo.LightBDD.XUnit2.dll;Demo.LightBDD.XUnit2.Features.Contacts_management.Searching_for_contacts_by_phone")]
public void Searching_for_contacts_by_phone()
{
    Runner.WithContext<ContactsManagementContext>().RunScenario(
        c => c.Given_my_contact_book_is_empty(),
        c => c.Given_I_added_contacts(Table.For(
            new Contact("John", "111-222-333", "john@hotmail.com"),
            new Contact("John", "111-303-404", "jo@hotmail.com"),
