      <title>The Circular Perspective of BDD</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A few weeks ago, Brian Ford was in my office and we were discussing &lt;span class="caps"&gt;BDD&lt;/span&gt; and how we can make this process even easier for our clients to understand&amp;#8230; much less our own internal staff. With all concepts, each person has their own idea about what it is, why it is important, regardless of whether or not it&amp;#8217;s accurate. This can cause some people to not find a good need for some practices.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;During our discussion, Brian grabbed one of my whiteboard markers and drew diagrams to explain how he saw &lt;span class="caps"&gt;BDD&lt;/span&gt; vary from &lt;span class="caps"&gt;TDD&lt;/span&gt;. He has since posted an article on his blog titled, &lt;a href="http://blog.brightredglow.com/2006/10/4/what-s-it-worth-to-me"&gt;what&amp;#8217;s it worth to me&lt;/a&gt;, and discusses his circular view of &lt;a href="http://blog.brightredglow.com/2006/10/4/what-s-it-worth-to-me"&gt;Behavior-Driven Developent&lt;/a&gt; and the importance of using &lt;a href="http://www.dialogue-driven.org"&gt;Dialogue&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="http://www.seedsofunfolding.org/issues/04_06/features_1.htm"&gt;evolve shared meaning&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
