syntax - Specflow Given When Then BUT? -

-

i have been using specflow while, without making use of "but" logic.

considering following scenario:

scenario: kiran logs system doesn't click remember me given have username of 'kiran' , password of 'password' when chose login don't chose remember me should logged in , taken home screen username should not remembered

couldn't "but" steps interchanged "and"?

is there advantage using "but"?

am right in thinking purely readability purposes?

i forward hearing thoughts on this.

many thanks, kiran

yes right, "and" , "but" inter-changeable in gherkin syntax.

however in experience "and" used when indicating user should carry out action, whereas "but" best suited when want highlight user should not perform action; because "but" in english language used in negative context.

hence in example:

but don't chose remember me

is use of "but" not performing action. additionally using "but" makes intent of test explicit , removes possible ambiguities.

Google Cloud Bigtable Durability/Availability Guarantees -

i google provide guidelines on durability , availability guarantees provided cloud bigtable service. here understanding far: the fact minimum cluster requires 3 nodes suggests that, @ least within zone, data highly durable , replicated 3 nodes. however, this answer googler states "cloud bigtable doesn’t replicate data" — directly contradicting quote on cloud bigtable homepage claims "is built replicated storage strategy". it? replicated or not? , if so, how many copies kept? the fact clusters can set within particular zone suggests availability of cluster tied directly availability of zone. if want have highly available bigtable-based data storage, best practice set independent clusters across multiple zones , handle synchronisation of writes across clusters myself? there no information on whether bigtable clusters across zones independent or not. if set clusters across multiple zones, , 1 zone goes down, expect clusters in other zones carry on work...
