I've gotten quite a bit out of Pat Maddox's screencast
http://evang.eli.st/blog/2007/10/8/story-runner-top-to-bottom-screencast
One thing I'm not sure of is the feature where he writes things like:
When "I POST to", "/articles", :post => {:title => "Title", :body
=> "Body") do | path, params|
post_via_redirect path, params
end
This bothers me because it seems an abrupt level jump. Most of the
stories are written at a level where the goal donor can understand
them, For example, I'm pretty sure that the above when clause started
life as somethign more like
When "I add an article"
I actually changed Pat's example a bit to use article instead of post
to keep the domain and implementation nouns different. I'd say that
the "add an article" form is easily understood by a client, but the
"POST to ", ... form is not.
When I try the parameterized form, I notice that the story runner only
reports the story as
When I post to
So the output is even less useful for talking to the client.
Now I really like the idea of the parameterized stories, but the step
away from client-speak makes me shy away from them. Is there a way to
get the power without loosing the intelligibility?
