  2. The toast component should appear above all other screen elements.
  3. The toast component should be placed at the top, middle, bottom of the screen.
  4. The toast component should support a message only.
  5. The toast component should disappear automatically.
  6. The toast component should be able to prevent auto-hiding.

  • Story 1: As an end-user, I want to see a message notification about a certain operation, so that I can understand its implications.
  • Story 2: As an end-user, I expect that the toast does not hide other critical information, so that I have context about the message it displays.
