    Hello,

    Thanks for sharing this! I am very interested in IronPython and the links in the video help immensely!

    I do have a question though, if I may. Do you know of any BDD tools that will work with IronPython? Story runners and step definitions seem to be the norm in my neck of the woods.

    Thanks again!

    Michael

    Hello Michael,

    I am certainly not a Python specialist but from what I understand what runs on Python 2.6 should run on IronPython. So normally a tool like pyhistorian should answer your need.
