Tools

Agile FACT recommends where possible the adoption of Open Source tools with an active community. 

nFACT - agile FACT Reports for .Net

nFact is an Open Source tool for .Net. It extends the popular SpecFlow tool for writing BDD tests adding the following features:

• Multimedia playback of Stories using video, slides or screenshots.
• Ability to configure an acceptance test to target any test environment - UAT, System Test, Staging, Production etc.
• A REST API for integration with any Continuous Delivery pipeline.
• Ability to embed Story links from any FACT Report to a Story repository such as JIRA, Confluence or Rally.
• No training required, as standard unit test runners NUnit/MSTest are used for writing acceptance tests within Visual Studio

nFact can be downloaded from GitHub.
