Hey, in the Spek 1.x I used to chain mutiple given to describe the context. I had a look at the migration steps on https://spekframework.org/migration/#given-on-it it feels like the Given in the Scenario is the equivalent of the `given`(s) but it doesn’t seem like I can chain them. Am i correct ?

[sebastien.rouif]

I guess I could go for

group{
    group{
        group{
            test{}
            test{}
        }
    }
}

Why not use the specification style? describe/context/it

[sebastien.rouif]

with describe/context/it you can have nested describe or context but the it seems weird as it encapsulates the when and the test cf one of the example :

it("should throw when first is invoked") {
				assertFailsWith(NoSuchElementException::class) {
					set.first()
				}
			}

[raniejade]

hmm, how would you translate that to given/when/then if nesting is allowed?

[sebastien.rouif]

when("first is invoked") it("should throw")

[raniejade]

@sebastien.rouif sorry for the late reply. How about context('when first is invoked')?

[sebastien.rouif]

I’m just puzzled by the naming, when is not really a context anymore it’s an action I really liked the approach of Spek1 which also forced you to do assertions after the action
