+Feature: Copy nodes with tethered nodes
+
+  Background:
+    Given using no content dimensions
+    And using the following node types:
+    """yaml
+    'Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:Document': []
+    'Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:DocumentWithTethered':
+      childNodes:
+        tethered:
+          type: 'Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:Document'
+    """
+    And using identifier "default", I define a content repository
+    And I am in content repository "default"
+    And the command CreateRootWorkspace is executed with payload:
+      | Key                | Value           |
+      | workspaceName      | "live"          |
+      | newContentStreamId | "cs-identifier" |
+    When I am in workspace "live" and dimension space point {}
+    And I am user identified by "initiating-user-identifier"
+    And the command CreateRootNodeAggregateWithNode is executed with payload:
+      | Key             | Value                         |
+      | nodeAggregateId | "lady-eleonode-rootford"      |
+      | nodeTypeName    | "Neos.ContentRepository:Root" |
+
+    When the following CreateNodeAggregateWithNode commands are executed:
+      | nodeAggregateId            | parentNodeAggregateId  | nodeTypeName                                        | tetheredDescendantNodeAggregateIds |
+      | sir-david-nodenborough     | lady-eleonode-rootford | Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:Document             | {}                                 |
+      | nody-mc-nodeface           | sir-david-nodenborough | Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:Document             |                                    |
+      | sir-nodeward-nodington-iii | lady-eleonode-rootford | Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:DocumentWithTethered | {"tethered": "nodewyn-tetherton"}  |
+
+  Scenario: Coping a tethered node turns it into a regular node
+    And I expect the node aggregate "nodewyn-tetherton" to exist
+    And I expect this node aggregate to be classified as "tethered"
+
+    When the command CopyNodesRecursively is executed with payload:
+      | Key                         | Value                                           |
+      | sourceDimensionSpacePoint   | {}                                              |
+      | sourceNodeAggregateId       | "nodewyn-tetherton"                             |
+      | targetDimensionSpacePoint   | {}                                              |
+      | targetParentNodeAggregateId | "sir-david-nodenborough"                        |
+      | nodeAggregateIdMapping      | {"nodewyn-tetherton": "nodewyn-tetherton-copy"} |
+
+    And I expect the node aggregate "nodewyn-tetherton-copy" to exist
+    # must not be tethered!
+    And I expect this node aggregate to be classified as "regular"
+    And I expect this node aggregate to be of type "Neos.ContentRepository.Testing:Document"
+    And I expect this node aggregate to be unnamed
+    And I expect this node aggregate to occupy dimension space points [[]]
+    And I expect this node aggregate to disable dimension space points []
+    And I expect this node aggregate to have no child node aggregates
+    And I expect this node aggregate to have the parent node aggregates ["sir-david-nodenborough"]
