Behave vs Lettuce

Developers should learn and use Behave when working on projects that require clear communication between technical and non-technical teams, such as in agile or BDD-driven environments meets developers should use lettuce when working on python projects that require clear, human-readable test specifications, especially in agile or collaborative environments where business analysts and qa teams are involved. Here's our take.
