Why Choose Flow BDD?
The most productive way to implement Behaviour Driven Development. You write the code first and this generates documentation and diagrams.
Do more with less
Focus on your tests and best practices. Flow BDD is an open source framework that uses "Wordify" to translate your clean Java code into beautiful, interactive docs.Code-First, Always
Write clean JUnit 5 tests. No regex glue, no brittle feature files, no framework overhead, just one annotation!
Visual Debugging
Get automated Mermaid.js sequence diagrams for every test run to see exactly where communication breaks.
Boundary Assurance
Perfect for AI-assisted coding. Ensure LLM-generated logic follows the expected behavioral boundary.
Why do functional testing including BDD
Verifying Behavior
Ensuring the system does exactly what the business intended.
Enabling Refactoring
Providing the safety net needed to improve code without breaking functionality.
Living Documentation
Acting as the ultimate source of truth for how the system actually works.
Increased agility
Iterating with Fast Validated Feedback, Value Amplification, Waste Elimination
The Traditional BDD Problem
Tackle the "Gherkin Tax"
Traditional frameworks like Cucumber, JBehave etc... often lead to code duplication and massive refactoring overhead. Flow BDD removes the following:Four layers of complexity (Feature, Glue, Orchestration, FT Framework)
Corrupted code caused by rigid feature file structures
High maintenance costs and diminishing returns as projects grow
Brittle Regex mappings that break during refactoring
Be more productive
Be more productive, with higher quality tests and less code
