Adding parameters to features file

[Juan Pablo Volpintesta]

Hi,

I was wondering if there was any way to parametrize the features file, something like, having this scenario outline:

Given I open <URL>

When I click <button>

Then I should see <result>

|  URL  |  button  |  result  |

|  urlA  | buttonA | resultA |

|  urlB  | buttonB | resultB |

|  urlC  | buttonC | resultC |

|  urlD  | buttonD | resultD |

|  urlE  | buttonE | resultE |

Being able to say "run this ONLY for urlA/buttonA/resultA" or maybe for A and D, on execution time... maybe with a command line parameter?

Please let me know if I'm not clear enough.

Cheers!

Normally, you would such a selection by using (active) tags.

In behave, you can add your example tables parameters to the title of the scenario outline.

Therefore, each Scenario instance of the scenario outline has its own specific name.

This name can then be selected on the command-line ("select scenario by name" (part)).

But I am not quite sure if this concept is support by lettuce.

I hope that helps you.

Cheers,

Jens
