BDD and API Testing in C# with SpecFlow

Bridge the gap between business requirements and technical implementation by writing automated tests that everyone can read. Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) helps teams collaborate effectively while maintaining a robust, self-documenting test suite. Through this text-based course, you will learn how to design, write, and execute automated tests for REST APIs in C# using SpecFlow, transitioning from manual testing to building an automated framework that validates API behavior against real-world scenarios. What you'll learn: - Understand the foundational concepts of Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) and Gherkin syntax. - Configure SpecFlow features, scenarios, tags, and hooks in a modern .NET environment. - Write reusable step definitions using C# and leverage asynchronous programming patterns for efficient execution. - Automate REST API testing by sending HTTP requests and validating JSON payloads. - Implement advanced SpecFlow patterns including Scenario Outlines, data tables, and scoped bindings. - Organize and run test suites systematically to integrate with modern development workflows. The course begins with core BDD definitions and SpecFlow setup, ensuring you understand the theory before writing any code. You will then progress through structured written explanations and step-by-step code walkthroughs to build a fully functional API testing suite. This course is designed for beginners to automation, QA engineers, and C# developers looking to adopt BDD practices. No prior experience with SpecFlow or API testing is required, though a basic familiarity with C# is helpful. Start your journey toward automated testing excellence today.
