  • Xunit.Gherkin.Quick

    BDD in .NET Core - using Xunit and Gherkin (compatible with both .NET Core and .NET)

    • There is a hidden gem for Xunit called Xunit.Gherkin.Quick which allows you to create standard feature files using the Gherkin language, and automate these with Xunit-based tests.

  • Gherkin.TypeProvider

    A Gherkin TypeProvider

    • Gherkin Provider is a F# Type Provider, which means it automatically generates types based on the feature file while you are typing in your IDE - magic! ;) I was (and still am) very excited when I first saw it, as it has the promise to bring the best of 2 worlds:

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • TickSpec

    Lean .NET BDD framework with powerful F# integration

    • TickSpec is the dinasour in the room (dating back to 2010!!) but remarkably straightforward (compared to SpecFlow). It does not use code-generation magic, but it has a little magic related to how steps (in feature files) are mapped to functions and how step parameters (e.g. tables) are mapped to function parameters, and how parameters are passed between Given/When/Then functions.
