Date: 11 Mar 2025
Location: NL
Company: Canon Production Printing
Are you an HBO IT student which is looking for an internship or graduation assignment? Are you ready for the challenge to improve our requirements definition process by using AI technology? We are looking for you!
Your assignment
Objective: Explore and develop AI solutions that can assist in writing correct Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) scenarios. The focus will be on leveraging Generative AI tools to ensure scenarios follow the specific structure and guidelines required for effective BDD.
Background: Behaviour-Driven Development (BDD) is a collaborative approach to software development that emphasizes communication between developers, QA, and non-technical stakeholders. BDD scenarios are written in a Given-When-Then format, and it is crucial that these scenarios are well-structured, non-contradictory, and free of duplicates.
Assignment: You will be tasked with researching and implementing AI solutions that can aid in the creation of BDD scenarios. Your responsibilities will include:
1. Research: Investigate existing Generative AI tools and techniques that can be applied to BDD processes.
2. Evaluation: Assess the potential of these tools to improve the accuracy and efficiency of writing BDD scenarios.
3. Implementation: Develop a prototype or proof-of-concept that demonstrates how AI can assist in generating correct BDD scenarios.
Note: While you are encouraged to explore various AI tools and techniques available in the market (BDD AI, testomat.io, BDD Guru) it is preferable to create a solution that relies on Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Deliverables:
• A working prototype or proof-of-concept demonstrating the application of AI in generating BDD scenarios.
• A presentation summarizing your work and showcasing the prototype.
Your profile
To be able to fulfil the assignment you require knowledge on generative AI tools at a level that allows you to create/develop an AI agent for Microsoft Copilot specialized on BDD.
You will be helped to understand BDD by software engineers with experience in defining software requirements.
Time span of the assignment: around 5 months, fulltime.
