Then I should be on "specific page"

Asserts that the browser is currently on a specific page. The quoted argument can be a relative path such as "/user/login" or a full URL such as "https://example.org". The step passes when the current browser URL contains the quoted value, so it works for both exact paths and meaningful URL fragments. The pronoun can be I, we, or omitted, the is optional, and a trailing page keyword is also optional.

Gotcha: because this is a substring check, very short values match too easily. Asserting "/" passes on virtually every URL, and asserting "/user" also passes on /user/login. Prefer the most specific path that identifies the page you expect. When the assertion fails, the error message shows the actual current URL.

In a real scenario

Scenario: Anonymous visitors are sent to the login page instead of the admin area
  Given I am an anonymous user
   When I go to "/admin"
    And wait
   Then I should see "Log in"
    And I should be on "/user/login"
    And I should not be on "/admin/dashboard"
