Thanks! In this case, it would be the test environment that would change. For example, I want to make sure traffic passes appropriately with a single switch as well as with a larger network that includes multiple devices, routing protocols, etc. So it may be a different "feature" (i.e. routing protocol) I'm testing, but I would still want to run the same test. Does that make sense? Is that a case of refactoring? Most examples I see with BDD are very simple straightforward tests. It makes sense it would be reusable in the way I am describing, but I can't find examples, which is throwing me off.

It’s a refactoring if the behavior being tested and the API it’s tested through is the same. How it works inside doesn’t matter to the test. Only that it works.
