+Feature: Lifecycle expiration
+
+    @2.16.0
+    @PreMerge
+    @Expiration
+    @Lifecycle
+    Scenario Outline: Days=0 expiration empties a "<versioningConfiguration>" bucket
+    Given a "<versioningConfiguration>" bucket
+    And 5 objects "expire-obj" of size 100 bytes
+    When i set a lifecycle expiration of 0 days for the "<scope>"
+    Then the bucket should contain 0 objects within 180 seconds
+
+    Examples:
+        | versioningConfiguration | scope                           |
+        |           Non versioned | current version                 |
+        |               Versioned | current and noncurrent versions |
+        |               Suspended | current and noncurrent versions |
