Write tests as if you were talking to a manager

Avatar of Oskar Barcz Oskar Barcz

BDD is not just about tests - it’s about shared understanding and trust.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to write high-value functional tests using Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) techniques tailored for Symfony projects. We’ll start by turning business rules into human-readable Gherkin scenarios, then drive feature implementation with Behat - step by step, from failing spec to working Symfony code.

Whether you're working on APIs, back-office tools or user-facing systems, this workshop will teach you how to:
- collaborate with product stakeholders by modeling real-world behaviour
- integrate Behat into Symfony apps using modern PHP practices
- structure tests to survive business changes, not just framework upgrades
- use BDD to improve developer confidence and reduce testing overhead

This session is for PHP & Symfony developers who want to improve communication, increase test quality, and make Symfony applications that work - exactly as intended. Basic Symfony knowledge is expected, no previous BDD experience is required!
