Feature: Tiered Sales Commissions
  As a salesperson sells more, his commission percentage should get higher. Commissions are tiered.

  Scenario: Flat commission
    Given I earn a flat 10% commission
    When I sell $10,000 of services
    Then I should earn $1,000 in commissions

  Scenario: Two tier commission (in second tier)
    Given I earn 10% commission up to $5,000 of sales
    And I earn 12% commission above $5,000 of sales
    When I sell $6,000 of services
    Then I should earn $620 in commissions

  Scenario: Two tier commission (in first tier only)
    Given I earn 10% commission up to $5,000 of sales
    And I earn 12% commission above $5,000 of sales
    When I sell $4,000 of services
    Then I should earn $400 in commissions

  Scenario: Two tier commission (at boundary)
    Given I earn 10% commission up to $5,000 of sales
    And I earn 12% commission above $5,000 of sales
    When I sell $5,000 of services
    Then I should earn $500 in commissions

  Scenario Outline: Two tier commission
    Given I earn <rate1> commission up to <boundary> of sales
    And I earn <rate2> commission above <boundary> of sales
    When I sell <sales> of services
    Then I should earn <expected commission> in commissions

    Examples: 
      | scenario           | rate1 | boundary | rate2 | sales  | expected commission |
      | in first tier only | 10%   | $5,000   | 12%   | $4,000 | $400                |
      | at boundary        | 10%   | $5,000   | 12%   | $5,000 | $500                |
      | in second tier     | 10%   | $5,000   | 12%   | $6,000 | $620                |

  Scenario Outline: Three tier commission
    Given I earn <rate1> commission for sales up to <boundary1>
    And I earn <rate2> commission for sales between <boundary1> and <boundary2>
    And I earn <rate3> commission for sales above <boundary2>
    When I sell <sales> of services
    Then I should earn <expected commission> in commissions

    Examples: 
      | scenario           | rate1 | boundary1 | rate2 | boundary2 | rate3 | sales   | expected commission |
      | in first tier only | 10%   | $5,000    | 12%   | $10,000   | 20%   | $4,000  | $400                |
      | at first boundary  | 10%   | $5,000    | 12%   | $10,000   | 20%   | $5,000  | $500                |
      | in second tier     | 10%   | $5,000    | 12%   | $10,000   | 20%   | $6,000  | $620                |
      | at second boundary | 10%   | $5,000    | 12%   | $10,000   | 20%   | $10,000 | $1,100              |
      | in third tier      | 10%   | $5,000    | 12%   | $10,000   | 20%   | $12,000 | $1,500              |
