syntax - Gherkin，如何编写一个具有可选给定步骤的场景？

Question

我正在编写一个简单的添加项目场景。该项目具有必填字段（名称、编号、日期），该项目还具有可选字段（类别、描述）。我如何指定字段：

scenario: add item
   given name
   and  number
   and  date
   but category is not null
   and description is no null
   then save item

这是正确的吗？

我会将其拆分为多个场景，因为每个场景都应该测试一件事。

此外，您应该始终有一个 When 步骤。Given 是一个先决条件，并不总是需要，When 是一个动作， Then 是该动作的预期结果。如果没有 When 步骤，您是在说您有什么都不做的预期结果？

我会将功能文件编写为如下所示：

Feature: Add Item
    As a stock control manager
    I want to be able to add items to an inventory
    So that I have a catalogue of al items in stock

Business Rules:
    - Name, number and date are mandatory data
    - category and description are optional

Sceanrio: Add item witout category
    When I add an item without a category
    Then the Item will be saved

Sceanrio: Add item without descritpion 
    When I add an item without a descritpion 
    Then the Item will be saved

Sceanrio: Add item without name
    When I add an item without a name
    Then the item will not be saved
    And I will be informed the name is maditory

Sceanrio: Add item without number
    When I add an item without a number
    Then the item will not be saved
    And I will be informed the number is maditory

Sceanrio: Add item without date
    When I add an item without a date
    Then the item will not be saved
    And I will be informed the date is maditory
