My role involves more customer relationship handling then coding and the idea that we could build, with the client, specifications for the application, and then use that as executable document for building the app was, and is, thrilling. And the fact that these specs could easily grow overtime and continue to be an updated documentation makes it even better. No more running back to the docs to ensure you added the change the client just asked you to shoe-horn in. I love the specdoc output formatter for RSpec. I've used that to generate a document for the client to say "This is what your application is doing. If it's not on here, don't assume it's doing it." In my experience, having a client assume stuff can be a royal pain in the ass. "You're supposed to know what you're doing. I just assumed you'd require people to enter their dog's middle name to gain access." -- Colin A.
