Hello and thank you for help us with our project, OpenMenu! This is _______, _________, and _________.

Picture this: 

You are going out to a restaurant on a Friday night with a couple friends. When you are seated, you notice that instead of menus, your waiter has grabbed tablets instead. Your waiter informs you that the restaurant is trying out a new electronic ordering system. The purpose of this new ordering system is to make ordering and waiting at restaurants faster and more efficient and to entertain customers while waiting for their orders to arrive.

To help us test the system, we're going to ask you to do some scenario tasks.
