user_management.feature

Feature: manage blog users

  In order to thwart spammers and keep users' data safe
  As an unknown individual
  I must login before using the site.

  Scenario Outline: unknown person login results
    Given that I am an unauthorized user
    When I go to the login page
    And I fill in "Email" with "<Email>"
    And I fill in "Password" with "<Password>"
    And I fill in "Confirm Password" with "<Confirm Password>"
    And I press "Login"
    And I press "Login"
    Then I should see "<Response>"

    Examples:
      | Email              | Password   | Confirm Password | Response         |
      | george@example.com | qwertyuiop | qwertyuiop       | Access Denied    |
      | oliver@example.com | qwertyuiop | qwertyuip        | Login Successful |
