JDave (http://www.jdave.org) is a framework which provides an easy way to specify behavior of your classes. Key concepts are specification, which is a container for behaviors. Behaviors define the behavior of a class and they are always expressed within some context. Context defines the setting where particular behavior applies.
For example, we could specify a Stack by first identifying that it has (at least) three interesting states, an empty stack, a full stack and a stack which is neither empty nor full. We would then continue by specifying the behavior of a Stack when it is in these states. The behavior can then be expressed as:
Stack specification Empty stack - is empty - is no longer empty after push - ... Full stack - is full - complains on push - contains all items - ... Stack which is neither empty nor full - adds to the top when pushing new item - ...
