Abstract
Gherkin scenarios are examples of the behavior of the system under development. They maybe part of the requirement specification, they may be part of the test suite and they are an excellenttool for gathering information among stakeholders, testers and developers. However,little work have been done formalizing Gherkin scenarios and modelling them as part of UMLdiagrams. This paper introduces an abstract syntax and concrete syntax for modeling Gherkinscenarios in UML Use Case diagrams. This paper also introduces a tool for running Gherkinscenarios from UML Use Case diagrams as test cases
