Yes, the UML notation on a transition is: event[guard_condition] Simply put, the states that have faces.outcome listed as the event are view states (wait for the postback "event") and the others are action states.

You can skip the event, the guard condition or both on a transition. Eventless transitions get evaluated as soon as executable content "onentry" for that state is done. The symbol and text label under the "checkCookie" state label implies execute that method binding expression on entering the state (which gives us the logical outcome to choose the outbound transition). -Rahul
