HAML : HTML Abstraction Markup Language
Recently, I got to learn about HAML for supporting my rails application and I found out some very interesting facts which I wanted to share with you guys. The learning experience was excellent and now I want to make sure the sharing experience is excellent too. Hope you will catch it easily!
Ok, so here we go and some very basic stuff about HAML would be, HAML stands for HTML Abstraction Markup Language. It is a new template engine for ruby on rails. It is a replacement for the RHTML templates which we are so used to in rails applications. The principles of HAML are that the markup should be beautiful, markup should be DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) and markup should be indented. Hope this is not rocket science 
Behavior Driven Development(BDD)/Cucumber
Behavior Driven Development describes a cycle of interactions with well defined outputs, resulting in the delivery of working, tested software that matters. With BDD, you create executable specifications, not tests. You want to look at what your code does, not the internals of how it does it. This method of development is mainly about visualizing goals and aims at writing tests BEFORE writing the production code rather than testing all of the application code after its development.
