<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Verdana>I saw the discussion about cucumber being
validated to be used in bind10 test.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>After my investigation of this tool, some questions come up as
follows:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>* As I know, cucumber is a tool for BDD, and its obvious benefit is for
design. </DIV>
<DIV> So I wonder what is the advantage of using it in bind10 as the
codes are already there?</DIV>
<DIV> Or just to use its automated test mechanism?</DIV>
<DIV style="TEXT-INDENT: 2em"> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Verdana>* If it is chosen, I think it will be
a time-consuming work to write the features
and steps </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Verdana> from scratch. Or if there is way to
move the use cases from ready-made ones? And Where</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> are they? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>* About the test code, it seems the step definition is like white-box test,
it often directly</DIV>
<DIV> calls the lib of source code. So I
think the test programmer should be familiar with the </DIV>
<DIV> implementation very much. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>* As cucumber, ruby is the best language, and I see other
languages might not be well-supported,</DIV>
<DIV> such as python and shell. And whether it should
be the same language used in implementation? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>* Is there a tester called 'dns cucumber'? Where shall I get it? And what
is the three clone of cucumber</DIV>
<DIV> you discussed?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Looking forward to your reply, and I will really appreciate it.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
