Question: is this project still maintained?

[tuscias]

Hi, this project looked promising and all, but after taking a look at Issues (66 open issues!), or latest nuget - year 2016 made me wonder if this is a maintained project at all?

[josephwoodward]

I'm not sure what's happening with it. I use it a lot for a few projects so would be keen to help out.

[JakeGinnivan]

Personally I am not in the .net space anymore so have stepped back from maintaining it. I would love to see a few people step up

[MehdiK]

@tuscias, I'm not maintaining the project either. It's still an awesome framework and could do with a new active owner.

[mwhelan]

@tuscias I am one of the original maintainers. I agree with @MehdiK that it's still an awesome framework. Although I haven't had time to contribute to TestStack recently, I still use BDDfy (and Dossier) every day with my clients here in the UK. @josephwoodward I would be interested to chat about your offer to help out and what we might be able to do. Perhaps we can DM on twitter?

[josephwoodward]

@mwhelan Sounds good, I'll DM you on Twitter.

[shaynevanasperen]

I still use this project and I'm a big fan of it, so I'm also keen to help out.

[paulschup]

Is someone taking this on?

[AlexKeySmith]

Hi @mwhelan old sport! I've recently introduced BDDfy into a new project - it's still one of the best in my eyes, so I'll try and help out as well.

[jamierobson]

I happen to also really like using this framework, and would be grateful to see continued support. Which means that I'm also willing to get involved. With that in mind, is there a pathway to transferring ownership to someone willing to own and maintain the solution. As it stands, while I very strongly like this framework, it's a tough sell to convince others to adopt an apparently abandoned framework

[JakeGinnivan]

Hey @jamierobson

I've been out of the .net space for quite some time now so it's just not practical me being involved. That said more than happy to invite new contributors and even having a skype/other call to answer anything I can about the project.

The best scenario is if we got 2 people to put their hand up, I can invite both, then initially try and get PR's reviewed by each other. That way you get a feel for maintaining the project with someone who also has a vested interest.

@shaynevanasperen or anyone else still keen?

[shaynevanasperen]

Hey @JakeGinnivan

Apologies for the delay in replying. Yes, I am still keen. I think @josephwoodward is also.

[mwhelan]

I still use TestStack.BDDfy and TestStack.Dossier with all my clients and am keen to get back involved if others are also interested.

[bronumski]

Am a big fan of TestStack.BDDfy. I am spread pretty thin but if I can help in a small capacity then I would be interested in helping out.

[markholst]

This is an amasing project, and I'm honestly pretty sad to see it not being maintained. I can certainly say myself, and many of my colleagues, would be be very supportive of this being maintained going forward.

[lemonlion]

This was a decent project, but being that it hasn't been updated in 7 years now, I would recommend LightBDD as the nearest equivalent https://github.com/LightBDD . It is maintained regularly and would appear to have all of BDDfy's features and more.

[jamierobson]

Thank you @lemonlion for the recommendation - I'll check it out.

It would, however, also be nice to have this project resuscitated if this were at all possible

[JakeGinnivan]

If someone wanted to pick it up, happy to invite new contributors. Ideally multiple so there are reviewers for each others PRs
