Cucumber Variables in Tests and using "Examples"

Back in my posts long ago, I had mentioned something about GEB tests using the Where clause.  The where clause added a table of data in the test, that the test would iterate through.

Similarly in Cucumber, it's called Examples, and it's invoked using a Scenario Outline.  A basic Cucumber test has a Feature, which has a Scenario, which has steps. 

In a case where you want to run different values, you would use a Scenario Outline.  This works like this:

Feature: Cross Browser use
     Scenario Outline: Users hit the same site in multiple browsers
          Given a user goes to www.whatsmybrowser.com in "<browser>"
          When they click the check my browser button
          Then the output on the screen should be "<output>"

     Examples:
          | browser | output  |
          | ff           | firefox  |
          | ie           | IE         |
          |chrome   | Chrome|

By doing this, we allow the BDD test itself to select the variables for browser and output.  This way several iterations of the test could be run against one test.
