WireMock.Net supports state via the notion of scenarios. A scenario is essentially a state machine whose states can be arbitrarily assigned. Stub mappings can be configured to match on scenario state, such that stub A can be returned initially, then stub B once the next scenario state has been triggered. WireMock.Net supports _State_ via the notion of _scenarios_. A scenario is essentially a state machine whose states can be arbitrarily assigned.

For example, suppose were writing a to-do list application consisting of a rich client of some kind talking to a REST service. We want to test that our UI can read the to-do list, add an item and refresh itself, showing the updated list.

# Stay in the same State for a number of requests
In case you want to match a request for a certain state multiple times before moving to the next state, you can specify this. Example code:
In the above scenario, if you want to add more items to the ToDo list, like
- Fixing the car
- Cancel newspaper
And you want to move to the next state when these two requests are matched, set the `times` variable to `2` like this:
``` c#
_server
.Given(Request.Create()
.WithPath("/todo/items")
.UsingPost())
.InScenario("To do list")
.WhenStateIs("TodoList State Started")
.WillSetStateTo("Cancel newspaper item added", 2) // <-- The number of times this match should be matched before the state will be changed to the specified one.
.RespondWith(Response.Create()
.WithStatusCode(201));
```
