easyb’s a piece of cake

The tangible disconnect between stakeholders who define requirements and developers who implement them has long plagued software development. In recent years, however, frameworks based on dynamic languages and domain-specific languages (hint– easyb!) are bridging the stakeholder-developer gap by making code read more like normal language. IBM developerWorks‘ tutorial, dubbed “Drive development with easyb” shows how easyb — which provides a more natural DSL that is closely attuned to stakeholders — helps developers and stakeholders collaborate effectively.

In this hip, tutorial, you’ll see first hand, that easyb aims to enable executable yet readable documentation and that you can verify the behavior of anything you write in Java code, in a more natural way. When you are done with the tutorial, you’ll understand the benefits of collaborative stories implemented with easyb and how this framework makes collaboration easy.

So what are you waiting for, man? Go read it!
