Again, same confusion on the template creation and project creation as shown in T1644.

OK, it's going in the right direction now. A few problems to deal with though:

  • "Given at the creation" is a bit odd as an english construct, I would say "Given the template <Foo> containing the following tasks:"
  • your scenario is a bit too much geared toward pre-conceived solutions, for instance it mentions a popup-window, avoid to do that because we might want to change the views without invalidating the scenario
  • in fact your second clause in your given is border line reaching out to the When, might be easier to get rid of it and have a better When clause (which is a bit confused in its wording IMO).

Looks better now, english could be improved a bit but I'm too tired to pin point the issues. Maybe later... but if you adjust by yourselves I'd be grateful. ;-)
