What is Specification by Example?¶

Specification by Example (SBE) is a collaborative approach to defining software
behavior using concrete, real-world examples. These examples form the basis for
shared understanding, automated tests, and living documentation—ensuring we
build the right solution.


Why Consider SBE?¶

Problem How SBE Helps
Ambiguous requirements Real examples clarify intent before coding
Rework & late bug discovery Early validation with stakeholders reduces misunderstandings
Disconnected QA & dev efforts Shared language through examples aligns everyone
Outdated documentation Tests from examples evolve with the codebase

Benefits¶

  • ✅ Fewer bugs & clearer stories through early validation
  • ✅ Improved collaboration between devs, QA, and product
  • ✅ Executable specifications that double as regression tests
  • ✅ Reduced cycle time due to fewer clarifications and rework
