Synchronizing Scenario Outlines

Scenario Outlines can be used to specify business rules that can be represented with a table of input-output pairs. The following example shows a scenario outline for specifying the addition function of a calculator.

Scenario Outline: Add two numbers
    Given I have entered <a> into the calculator
    And I have entered <b> into the calculator
    When I press add
    Then the result should be <result> on the screen

Examples: 
    | description   | a  | b  | result |
    | classic       | 50 | 70 | 120    |
    | commutativity | 70 | 50 | 120    |
    | zero          | 0  | 42 | 42     |

This scenario outline represents three executable tests, one for each row of the Examples table.

The kind of test cases that are created in Jira for scenario outlines depends on the Test Case Management solution used.

TCM solution	Scenario Outline representation
