FitNesse Reviews & Product Details

FitNesse is a great tool to implement acceptance test driven development where Buisness Analyst sets the standard expectations about Input Request and Output response from a given capability or service which is exposed to any Consumer. Developer has the responsibility to develop the service with making the FitNesse page Green as per the buisness scenario mentioned. Initially the FitNesse page would be yellow depicting no implementation and then Red depicting issues in implementation and the Green when Developer completes the implementation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For a Developer sometimes implementation becomes time consuming when the FitNesse pages are long and have lot of complexity in the design Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fitnesse has wiki pages that can hold text so you can put requirements there. It is fast and debugging tests is very easy. Managers also can read tests because it is gherkin like. There are not issues with the framework and writing tests is fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In old versions you need to put content.txt and properties.txt so that the test is visible in a suite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wiki based approach to write down my test scenarios along with input / output / assertions. Its very intuitive and very similar to how one would write manual tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
