[名家名著] 36 BDD in Action中文版（第二版） BDD in Action, Second Edition ❝《BDD in Action 》第一版與第二版我都細讀過。書中內容相當完整，但要全面實踐並不容易。我自己的做法是將BDD 套用在Clean Architecture 的核心層：先撰寫使用案例測試（透過ezSpec），再撰寫production code。能在「使用案例層」與「領域層」落實BDD，已經非常有價值；至於介面層與框架層，則仍採傳統的「先寫程式，再寫測試」。 你不必強求看懂本書所有細節，但務必從中學到能改變行為的一些觀點與技巧。理解Christopher Alexander對設計的定義，將幫助你站在更高的視角閱讀本書，避免在術語的迷宮中迷失，更能掌握BDD 的核心價值與精神。❞ ────「搞笑談軟工」板主Teddy Chen　專文推薦 ❝這就是BDD最打動我的地方。它不強調工具，不推銷框架，而是讓你反問：「我們到底有沒有釐清需求？我們是不是做了很多努力，卻在錯的方向上奔跑？」這本書沒有標準答案，但它給你很多值得思考、值得實作的方法。 ……程式開發從來就不是「閉門造車」，也不是在白板上畫出一個完美的心智圖就萬事OK了；而是從問題開始，一點一滴趨近需求，一次次讓對話更有力量。這本書給我們的不是標準流程，而是一種態度：我們不是為「開發功能」而開發，而是為了「解決問題」、為了「交付價值」。希望這本書也能帶給你一些啟發，甚至開啟你下一場更有共識、更有價值的專案。❞ ────本書譯者　江玠峰 ❝John和Jan一如往常地，以清晰詳實的筆觸描述了許多實用技巧。我自己讀到新內容時也不禁點頭認同，甚至還有幾次「恍然大悟」的時刻。我很高興將近20年過去了，BDD依然能引發這麼多關注與興趣，也非常感謝John和Jan為這本如此全面的參考書推出新版。❞ ────Daniel Terhorst-North，實務顧問 BDD(Behavior-Driven Development，行為驅動開發)是一種以協作為核心的軟體設計方法，透過具體的範例，它能將應用程式的需求與行為轉換成更清楚、可測試的規格。BDD的流程會納入來自組織內不同角色的觀點，讓軟體更能同時契合終端使用者的需求與業務利害關係人的目標。本書介紹的協作實踐與自動化策略，將幫助你充分發揮BDD的價值，為開

When an ancient supernatural book threatens the world, Doctor Strange and Ironheart will have to follow its trail of destruction to stop it Brave the spookiest corners of the Marvel Action Universe with the Sorcerer Supreme and armored teen genius Riri Williams as they hunt the legendary Iron-Bound Book of Shuma-Gorath. Along the way they'll hear fearful tales of its past: Iron Man's encounter with a horrifying post-modern Prometheus The time teenage monster hunter Else Bloodstone came up against a werewolf... in Captain America's clothing Spider-Man and Nadia Van Dyne, the Unstoppable Wasp, against a possessive symbiote out for Peter Parker's soul Then, in the fearful finale, the heroes learn who's behind the Book's chaos. And that person has one final fright to call forth Writer Jeremy Whitley (My Little Pony, Unstoppable Wasp) unearths his inner ghost-storyteller, with help from artists Gretel Lusky (Primer), Derek Charm (Squirrel Girl, Star Wars Adventures), Sweeney Boo (Marvel Act

《Spring Boot in Action》是一本專為熟悉 Spring Framework 的開發者所寫的實戰指南，聚焦於如何運用 Spring Boot 大幅簡化 Java 應用程式的開發流程。Spring Boot 以「約定優於設定」為核心理念，讓開發者跳過繁瑣的組態工作，快速啟動專案，將心力集中在應用程式的行為與商業邏輯上。作者 Craig Walls 以多年 Spring 開發與教學經驗，透過清楚且實用的範例，說明如何有效運用 Spring Boot 的自動組態機制，同時在需要時進行客製化調整。書中涵蓋測試、部署、Actuator 監控、命令列工具（CLI）、以及與 Groovy、Grails 的整合應用，完整呈現 Spring Boot 在實務開發中的優勢。本書內容務實、節奏明快，適合希望提升開發效率、減少設定負擔的 Java 與 Spring 開發者閱讀，是理解與上手 Spring Boot 的重要入門與進階參考。Although Spring Framework simplifies enterprise Java development, it can require a lot from developers in terms of framework configuration. Spring Boot radically streamlines the process of creating Spring applications by employing automatic configuration, along with a programming model built around established conventions for build-time and runtime dependencies. It also provides a component that gives insight into the internals of a running application and a handy CLI that can be used to write command-line scripts in Groovy. Developers who have used Spring Boot say that th
