Summary
Domain Driven Design (DDD) is about evolving a shared model of the domain letting the domain model drive the design. BDD is about establishing a shared understanding of “done” working from the outside in until you get there. DDD enables the use of BDD effectively creating software and BDD helps structure the conversations for DDD.

    What is BDD?

    by Chris Peterson

    It would be helpful if the presentation's teaser text defined BDD. It defines the well-known DDD acronym, but not BDD??

    Nothing new

    by Srikanth Shreenivas

    This presentation defines DDD and BDD and tries to link them. However, if you already know about both these terms then you would have in some way found how both of them can be linked to in order to achieve greater benefit. Would have been great if presentation offered greater insights.
