Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I write acceptance criteria in Given-When-Then format?

Given-When-Then (Gherkin syntax) removes ambiguity by clearly stating the initial condition (Given), the user or system trigger (When), and the expected verifiable outcome (Then). It serves as an unshakeable contract between product and QA.

Does this Markdown format work with Jira and Linear?

Yes! Modern Jira Cloud and Linear both feature first-class Markdown parsers. Pasting this generated Markdown preserves quotes, headings, bullet lists, and code blocks cleanly.
