- Method Detail
  - given
```
void given(Given given)
```
    Prime the given immediately.
    
    Parameters:
    
    given - The first given in the acceptance test, which should be built up inside the brackets
  - and
```
default void and(Given given)
```
    Same as given(Given).
    Prime the given immediately.
    
    Parameters:
    
    given - The first given in the acceptance test, which should be built up inside the brackets
  - when
```
<T extends When<TestResult>> void when(T when)
```
    Invoke the system under test and store the TestResult ready for the assertions.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - The type of When
    
    Parameters:
    
    when - The system under test, which should be built up inside the brackets
  - whenCalling
```
default void whenCalling(WhenWithoutResult whenWithoutResult)
```
    Invoke the system under test. The TestResult is assumed to have been passed in already in the FluentBdd constructor, which is useful to use the test class instance as the TestResult.
    That way, many Test methods can have different results and store them in the test class.
    
    Parameters:
    
    whenWithoutResult - The system under test, which should be built up inside the brackets
  - theResult
```
TestResult theResult()
```
    Fetch the result, if it has been computed yet.
    
    Returns:
    
    The TestResult.
  - given
```
default void given(When<TestResult> when)
```
    Adapt the 'when' to a 'given'. This is a common pattern when e.g. calling an endpoint that changes some state in the database. This is the equivalent of given(Given).
    
    Parameters:
    
    when - The 'when' to adapt to a 'given'
  - and
```
default void and(When<TestResult> when)
```
    Same as given(When).
    Adapt the 'when' to a 'given'. This is a common pattern when e.g. calling an endpoint that changes some state in the database. This is the equivalent of given(Given).
    
    Parameters:
    
    when - The 'when' to adapt to a 'given'
  - then
```
<Then> Then then(ThenAssertion<Then,TestResult> thenAssertion)
```
    Perform an assertion. Assertions should be chained outside the brackets.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    Then - The type of fluent assertions that will be performed
    
    Parameters:
    
    thenAssertion - A ThenAssertion that will produce a Then given the stored TestResult
    
    Returns:
    
    The fluent assertions instance
  - and
```
default <Then> Then and(ThenAssertion<Then,TestResult> thenAssertion)
```
    Same as then(ThenAssertion).
    Perform an assertion. Assertions should be chained outside the brackets.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    Then - The type of fluent assertions that will be performed
    
    Parameters:
    
    thenAssertion - A ThenAssertion that will produce a Then given the stored TestResult
    
    Returns:
    
    The fluent assertions instance
  - then
```
void then(ThenVerification<TestResult> thenVerification)
```
    Perform a verification, which should be built up inside the brackets.
    
    Parameters:
    
    thenVerification - A ThenVerification, which should be built up inside the brackets
  - and
```
default void and(ThenVerification<TestResult> thenVerification)
```
    Same as then(ThenVerification).
    Perform a verification, which should be built up inside the brackets.
    
    Parameters:
    
    thenVerification - A ThenVerification, which should be built up inside the brackets
