A simple node app developed during CukeUp! 2015

Shouty

Shouty is a social networking application for short physical distances. When someone shouts, only people within 1000m kan hear it.

Shouty doesn't exist yet - you will implement it yourself!

That is, if you're attending a BDD/Cucumber course.

Agenda

Get the code

Git:

git clone https://github.com/cucumber-ltd/shouty.js.git
cd shouty.js

Or simply download a zip or tarball.

Set up environment

• Install Node.js
• Run npm install
• Run npm test

You should see:

0 scenarios
0 steps

Brainstorm capabilities

• Who are the main stakeholders?
• What can people do with the app?
• What are the main differentiators from other apps?

Pick one capability

• Define rules
• Create high level examples (Friends episodes)

Then do this for each example to discover more examples:

• Can you think of a context where the outcome would be different?
• Are there any other outcomes we haven't thought about?

Implement one capability. Text UI only.

• Write a Cucumber Scenario for one of the examples
• Make it pass!
