"Multipurpose scenarios framework" is word salad to me. A Google search for the quoted phrase turns up mostly outthentic links, which doesn't tell me what it's similar to.

Perhaps I'm missing the point, or perhaps the author(s) can make it more obvious why I would want to investigate further?

Hi! Let me explain.

Outthentic is a framework to develop scripts easy and rapidly. Batteries included:

• Handling command line / input parameters with various formats support - see https://github.com/melezhik/outthentic#suite-configuration and https://github.com/melezhik/outthentic#runtime-configuration
• Many languages support - Perl5, Python, Ruby and Bash - that means that _ the most_ of Outthentic features are available for the mentioned languages
• Multiple scripts scenarios support - that means you can have complex scenarios where one script call other passing parameters. In Outthentic you don't need to care about parameters passing and handling between various scripts, as it is already included - see https://github.com/melezhik/outthentic#run-stories-from-other-stories
• DSL to test scripts output which make it possible create tests scenarios very easy ( in TDD/BDD way ), see https://github.com/melezhik/outthentic#check-files and https://github.com/melezhik/outthentic/blob/master/check-files-syntax.md
• Outthentic scenarios are distributed on the most Linux platforms ( provided that Perl is installed ) in a way of packages of software - see SparrowHub - a repository of outthentic scenarios.

This is not full list of Outthentic features, but I hope it may foster you to start using this tool.

PS the phrase "multi-purpose scenarios" means you can use Outthentic to create scripts of any kinds. From system administration tools to automation test scenarios. It's a Swiss army knife toolkit allow you create scripts effectively and easy.

OK, now you're getting somewhere.

Scenarios are scripts. Check files are like tests. Stories are...still not sure.

In the Outthentic page, if the Synopsis had useful words, or there was a Description section, or generally this page resembled other module pages like bigint or Getopt::Declare, I would be satisfied.

I'd suggest that page be rewritten for a user's point of view.
