Many agile software development teams have struggled with how to write automated acceptance (or customer) tests for their software. Ward Cunningham's Fit (Framework for Integrated Tests) was introduced as a solution to this problem. In Fit, customers and testers write tests in the form of tables, which are interpreted by special purpose "fixture" code that calls into the system under test. This seminar introduces acceptance testing using Fit, FitNesse, and FitLibrary in Smalltalk and includes information for the customers and testers who specify the acceptance test tables, and the developers who implement the fixture code.
