Ruby code to retrieve scenario outline and example name in step definition

[Abhinav Tiwari]

Hi,

I am using:

Ruby + Watir + eCuke + Rubymine : For Test Automation

I am trying to create a new customized HTML report of test script run with Scenario Details and Screenshots. 

I am able to capture screenshots and embed that in the html report. But I am not able to retrieve Scenario Outline name and Examples name in my ruby code at step definition.

Please note that I do not want to retrieve this information from hooks file.

Can anyone suggest how I can I retrieve this information during runtime?

Thanks in advance.

You can try this (found on SO).

      scenario_title = scenario.respond_to?(:scenario_outline) ? scenario.scenario_outline.title : ''

      scenario_title_example = scenario.respond_to?(:name) ? scenario.name : ''

      scenario_full_title = scenario_title + scenario_title_example

If that does not work I can dig out some code I have from a prior project where I saved screenshots and other files on failing scenario's/examples using the scenario (outline) name + example and see if that is a better solution

@Chuck van der Linden - Thank you, but this doesn't work from the step definition ruby code.

If you can post some code from your prior project, I can try hitting that too. Thanks in advance!
