SpecFlow is a popular .NET open-source framework for Behavioral Driven Development (BDD). It is majorly used for defining, managing, and executing human-readable acceptance tests in .Net projects. Along with BDD, it also supports Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD).
This SpecFlow tutorial for beginners and professionals from Karthik KK (@kartamd) will help you learn what is SpecFlow and how to write tests in SpecFlow. The course will take you through the process of SpecFlow installation, followed by the step-by-step approach to run the parallel test in SpecFlow Selenium C#. By the end of this video, you will learn to test locally hosted or privately hosted websites using SpecFlow on LambdaTest, along with how to run Selenium with c# test on the local machine.
You will learn -:
? What is SpecFlow Selenium?
? What is SpecFlow used for?
? How to set up SpecFlow?
? How do you run a SpecFlow test?
? What is SpecFlow framework?
? What is SpecFlow in testing?

Hi, really great video. I have a doubt for the below one: in a web based application having 100 respondents each respondent have different ids. i have to run my test cases for all respondents using id which are listed in test data file. file consists of 100 respondent ids, using this file i have to select an id in backend and run the application. here i have to choose the id before the application launched. so, in this case can we use Before feature hook to access that file to select option in backend. is it possible for specflow hooks to access the data from file. Please provide answer for this???
@LambdaTest waiting for your reply on this ?
Hi Tanneru, Let us get back to you on this
Waiting to get a video on SpecFlow Page Object Model as from 3.11 version of Selenium C# Bindings, Page Factory is deprecated!
Hey Syeda,
Glad that you are watching our videos and coming up with suggestions. We are in the process of creating new videos with Selenium 4. Will keep you posted
Tests are not displayed in the Test Explorer. I added NUnit3TestAdaptor, config file is updated with “MSTest” for unitTestProvider but still test is not getting displayed in the TE. Any thoughts on how I can get this working. Thanks
@LambdaTest figured out the issue, it is just that the Group Summary section in the Test Explorer was set wider than the Test details section. So I undocked the TE and opened full size then I could see the Test Details section on the side. So I had to dock it to the bottom to be able to see the Test Details section.
Thank you for your help
Okay, thank you. Let me know. I tried lot of the suggestions from Stack Overflow but none of them worked for me.
Hi Diyer, Let us get back to you on this
@Diyer
Can you try below points .
1. Install MSTest TestAdapter
2. Build the entire project once you add new Test .
3. Check Test Methods are public
4. Upgrade all NuGet packages
I followed your instructions to the letter, but there is no “generate step definitions” option in the contex menu when i right click anywhere in the feature file, any tips?
Hi Anno, Let us get back to you
hi what is the local host vale given in the driver class please ..what should i give for my test ..could u please explain that
@Arman Hatefi Thanks for answering this
@Arman Hatefi thank you so much .. I will have a look at the powershell script .. thanks
Hi Sona,
If you mean the “http://localhost:4444/wd/hub” at minute 11:05 of the video, that is the url of the browser driver that is running on presenter’s system. In the video, a few seconds right after that, you will see that he points to a powershell prompt window which shows it is running GeckoDriver service which is developed by FireFox. You can see more info on these URLs:

Hi Sona,
Can you elaborate more on your question?
Glad to see the video compiled pretty well !
Thanks Karthik 🙂
Great! 🙂
Hi, can you do same testing in unit test project.. That mean can u pick unit test project and build specflow execution..
Hey Naredla, let us get back to you on this!
Naredla,
There is no rule of thumb to use SpecFlow. However, our recommendation is to use BDD frameworks (like SpecFlow) to test out business (or domain level) requirements. The requirements purely depend on the project type.
Having said that, you could still use SpecFlow for unit testing if the intent is to write unit tests that take the behavioral aspects (something offered by BDD) into consideration.
You might also need to look into mocking SpecFlow’s ScenarioContext (in case required).
Before closing, can you please share your use case so that we can help you further?
Can we use this combination for WPF application. C# + selenium + spec flow.
Hi Sindu, WPF applications are Client Applications that run on the Windows platform. Selenium Supports only Web-based Application Testing. However, you can still use Spec Flow as its help to Write BDD Scenarios.
