+Feature: Draft Posts
+  As a hacker who likes to blog
+  I want to be able to preview drafts locally
+  In order to see if they look alright before publishing
+
+  Scenario: Preview a draft
+    Given I have a configuration file with "permalink" set to "none"
+    And I have a _drafts directory
+    And I have the following draft:
+      | title  | date      | layout  | content        |
+      | Recipe | 3/27/2009 | default | Not baked yet. |
+    When I run jekyll with drafts
+    Then the _site directory should exist
+    And I should see "Not baked yet." in "_site/recipe.html"
+
+  Scenario: Don't preview a draft
+    Given I have a configuration file with "permalink" set to "none"
+    And I have an "index.html" page that contains "Totally index"
+    And I have a _drafts directory
+    And I have the following draft:
+      | title  | date      | layout  | content        |
+      | Recipe | 3/27/2009 | default | Not baked yet. |
+    When I run jekyll
+    Then the _site directory should exist
+    And the "_site/recipe.html" file should not exist
