The given part describes the state of the world before you begin the behavior you're specifying in this scenario. You can think of it as the pre-conditions to the test.
The when section is that behavior that you're specifying.
Finally the then section describes the changes you expect due to the specified behavior.
Since we're talking about using examples as specifications, it makes sense to show this with an example [2]
Feature: User trades stocks
Scenario: User requests a sell before close of trading
Given I have 100 shares of MSFT stock
And I have 150 shares of APPL stock
And the time is before close of trading
When I ask to sell 20 shares of MSFT stock
Then I should have 80 shares of MSFT stock
And I should have 150 shares of APPL stock
And a sell order for 20 shares of MSFT stock should have been executed
The Given-When-Then formula is a template intended to guide the writing of acceptance tests for a User Story:
(Given) some context
(When) some action is carried out
(Then) a particular set of observable consequences should obtain
An example:
Given my bank account is in credit, and I made no withdrawals recently,
When I attempt to withdraw an amount less than my card's limit,
Then the withdrawal should complete without errors or warnings
Tools such as JBehave, RSpec or Cucumber encourage use of this template, though it can also be used purely as a heuristic irrespective of any tool.
