Configures Reqnroll (the canonical .NET BDD framework) - install via `dotnet add package Reqnroll`, author `.feature` files in Gherkin, write step bindings as `[Given/When/Then]`-decorated methods in any C# class, runs via `dotnet test`. Reqnroll is the SpecFlow successor (SpecFlow reached end-of-life 2024-12-31); covers the SpecFlow-to-Reqnroll migration path, and references/specflow-legacy.md maintains not-yet-migrated SpecFlow projects. Use for .NET projects starting BDD, migrating from…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# reqnroll-testing

## Overview

Per [reqnroll-home][rh]:

[rh]: https://reqnroll.net/

> "**Reqnroll** is described as 'an open-source Cucumber-style BDD
> test automation framework for .NET. It has been created as a
> reboot of the SpecFlow project.'"

The "reboot" framing is the key: SpecFlow's maintenance slowed in
2023; the community forked into Reqnroll, which has continued
active development.

## When to use

- A new .NET project starts BDD - pick Reqnroll over SpecFlow.
- An existing SpecFlow project plans to migrate (SpecFlow-compatible;
  see Step 9).
- The team needs full Gherkin support including Rule blocks
  (per [reqnroll-home][rh]: "Full Gherkin support with tagged
  Rule blocks").

For SpecFlow-locked legacy projects mid-migration (packages, bindings,
EOL background), see
[references/specflow-legacy.md](references/specflow-legacy.md).

## Worked example

A checkout team adds one BDD scenario, "Apply valid promo," to a new xUnit
project.

1. `dotnet add package Reqnroll.xUnit` and
   `dotnet add package Reqnroll.Tools.MsBuild.Generation`.
2. `Features/Cart.feature` declares the scenario under
   `Rule: Promo codes apply only when valid`, with
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add testland/qa/reqnroll-testing@sha256:f57215f9b313da86

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260813.83125c6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
