Essential Feed App – Image Feed Feature

BDD Specs

Story: Customer requests to see their image feed

Narrative #1

As an online customer
I want the app to automatically load my latest image feed
So I can always enjoy the newest images of my friends

Scenarios (Acceptance criteria)

Given the customer has connectivity
 When the customer requests to see their feed
 Then the app should display the latest feed from remote
  And replace the cache with the new feed

Narrative #2

As an offline customer
I want the app to show the latest saved version of my image feed
So I can always enjoy images of my friends

Scenarios (Acceptance criteria)

Given the customer doesn't have connectivity
  And there’s a cached version of the feed
  And the cache is less than seven days old
 When the customer requests to see the feed
 Then the app should display the latest feed saved

Given the customer doesn't have connectivity
  And there’s a cached version of the feed
  And the cache is seven days old or more
 When the customer requests to see the feed
 Then the app should display an error message

Given the customer doesn't have connectivity
  And the cache is empty
 When the customer requests to see the feed
 Then the app should display an error message
