As the second in our intro-level series of talks, TJ Stankus will present an Introduction to Cucumber. At our last meetup we had a great presentation and discussion about BDD and RSpec. Of course, Cucumber came up, so we'll take a little closer look at that tool. Here's how http://cukes.info... describes Cucumber:

Cucumber lets software development teams describe how software should behave in plain text. The text is written in a business-readable domain-specific language and serves as documentation, automated tests and development-aid - all rolled into one format.

We'll touch on using Cucumber with a plain old Ruby app and with a Rails app. We most likely will not touch on advanced aspects of Cucumber (using it with Selenium, etc.). After the presentation we'll have some time for hacking and/or discussion.

As usual, bring beer if you'd like. Hope to see you there!
