I'm wondering how you'd feel about a style I've adopted:
Scenario: Accepting a direct challenge, without leaving a comment
Given there is a challenge
And I am logged in
And I have been invited to that challenge
When I visit the challenge's page
And I press "Accept"
Then I should go to my attempt detail page for the challenge
And I should see that I accepted the challenge
And I should not see "Attempt Challenge"
Clearly, there is dependency between steps - each has to know what
challenge they're working on, for one thing. But I've found that it
reads better than the alternative
Given there is a challenge call 'Reach from the Stars' for 'Halo 3'
And I am logged in as Mark
And Mark was invited to 'Reach from the Stars' for 'Halo 3' on
'Sept 1, 2009' by 'Bill'
When I visit the challenge page for 'Reach from the Stars for 'Halo 3'
And I press "Accept"
Then I should go to Mark's attempt detail page for the challenge
'Reach from the Stars' for 'Halo 3'
And I should see that 'You accepted this challenge on Sept 1,
2009' And I should not see "Attempt Challenge"
The first one reads more like a business-level story to me and the
second one reads more like a test.
Thoughts?
