Multiple Stepdefinations with page objects

[Rajeshwari Sudhakar]

Hi all,

Would like to know how to implement multiple stepdefinations java file  with page objects . I dont understand where should i define the page objects for multiple step definations and how will cucumber find out which step defination file to use under these circumstances.

Kindly help. 

Thank you,

Rajee,

Step definitions are global. They are all available all the time.

I would suggest putting the appropriate page object into scope when
navigating to the page. E.g.,

Given /^(.*) visits the "(.*)" page$/ do |user, pagename|
@user_name = user
@current_page = create_page_object_for_name(pagename)
end

Then other step definitions can use @current_page for interactions. If
multiple pages need to support interactions using the same step
definition, then those pages should support the same methods needed for
those interactions. E.g.,

When /^(.*) enters their address$/ do |user|
@current_page.enter_address(lookup_address_for_user(user)
end

where multiple page objects would implement the enter_address() method.

Sure. Have the relevant page objects implement an interface, e.g.,
AddressForm, that contains the methods for entering the address.

@When("^(.*) enters their address$")
public void EntersTheirAddress(String user) {
(AddressForm)currentPage.
enterAddress(TestData.lookupAddressForUser(user);
}
