BEHAVIOR

How will I use Amazon Athena to access my database?​

Measures the behavior of Amazon Athena when first run and configured by the user:

Given in my web browser, I have access to the AWS Management Console
~and I have familiarized myself with the console interface

When I open Amazon Athena via the console menu system, by clicking on “Athena” whereever it appears
~and I click through any splash screen that might appear, eg. “Explore the Query Editor”

Then I will be presented with the Amazon Athena interface
~and up at the right next to “Workgroup”, I should be offered my [service workgroup] from the list box
~and over on the left under “Database” I should be offered my [service raw zone] from the list box.

Scale of 3 to 4 ~and flow features.
