Conventional Testing Styles

Developers who have experience authoring tests will likely have used one or more testing styles.

There are different schools of thought on what tests should look like.

xUnit, Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), Gherkin

The most common testing syntax styles are: xUnit, Behavior-Driven Development, and Gherkin.

Note: Behavior-Driven Development is a software process, not a code syntax.
However, similar syntax styles have emerged over the years for these different testing paradigms.
