Abstract
A recent phenomenon in the world of acceptance testing is tools that emphasize the creation of a domain language in which to express tests. The benefits of this are twofold: customers and testers are more likely to get involved in tests expressed in a language they understand. Also, tests that express intentions rather than mechanics tend to be much easier to maintain in the long run as they do not break when circumstantial things change.
The aim of this workshop is to see how tools that support this work in practice. The presenters have each been involved in the development of such a tool, TextTest+xUseCase, Fit+FitLibrary and Exactor, respectively, and there is room for attendees to bring their own tools along too. We aim to learn enough about these tools to compare and contrast them with each other, as well as with agile approaches that are less focussed on the creation of a domain language.
