BDD (Behavior Driven Development) Testing for Django Apps
summary
Claims a working BDD stack for Django using behave and Selenium plus page objects and behave-django, integrated with Travis CI and BrowserStack and Hiptest. Describes code layout, fixtures, and a demo app where end-to-end scenario runtime drops from ~3 seconds to ~1 second by passing cookies from Django test client into the WebDriver. Notes debugging flags, parallel cross‑browser runs, and practical limits: linear Gherkin flow, fragile complex JS widgets, and flaky browser/version mismatches.
