SYNOPISIS
Ruby on Rails is an open source web framework that's optimized for programmer happiness and sustainable productivity. Rails adage of "convention over configuration" results in a development process that is nimble, agile, and fun! So what might have taken previously weeks or months to develop can be produced in a matter of days using Rails.
It's all behavior
The most significant problem affecting software development is communication. A software system consists of interactions between people and systems or between systems, and each such interaction reveals a behavior of the system – a behavior which is agreed upon by the stakeholders and software developers. However, in reality, gaps invariably develop between the understanding of the system by the stakeholders and the developers, resulting in software that doesn't meet the requirements. Behavior Driven Development (BDD) helps to keep the focus on the behavior right through the development process by simplifying the language used to convey the behavior that doubles up as executable tests!
