What is rspec-given?

The rspec-given gem provides a set of Given/When/Then keywords that can be used to structure RSpec specifications, enabling a more natural, readable, and expressive way to define and organize test cases. This extension to the popular RSpec testing framework allows developers to write specifications in a style that closely resembles the common Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) approach, focusing on the expected behavior of the system under test. By leveraging these keywords, developers can create specifications that are more intuitive, self-documenting, and aligned with the language used in the problem domain
