There are many cookbooks but very few chef books. Cucumber Recipes is inspiring enough to qualify as a chef book. If there's a will and a desire to use Cucumber in the process, Cucumber Recipes will more than likely show you a way...or many ways! From the basic to the esoteric, there's something for everyone in Cucumber Recipes. --Michael Larsen, Senior quality assurance engineer, SocialText If you're automating tests of any kind using Cucumber, in any language, against any type of software, you need this cookbook. Its recipes will help you write useful, easily maintained tests for even the most puzzling scenarios. Like all good cookbooks, it teaches good techniques and principles that will help you improve all your tests. Best of all, you can actually code the examples yourself, and learn by doing. --Lisa Crispin, Co-author, Agile Testing: A Practical Guide for Testers and Agile Teams Cucumber Recipes has testing solutions for a variety of platforms. It is a powerful book that gives us useful tips to use BDD in our chosen environment. To realize the power of BDD, Cucumber Recipes is a must on every software test engineer's table. --Kavitha Naveen, Senior lead - quality engineering
