public @interface CaseDescription

Use to define a description provider for scenario cases.

By default, multiple cases in a parametrized scenario are described by just listing the parameter names with their corresponding values. Sometimes, however, it is useful to provide an explicit description the provides more semantic background for each case. This annotation can be used to define custom descriptions.
