Override Step info

[Renish K.R]

I would like to know how to override some step info before step execution. I have tried using Step Listener. I want to develop a solution similar to the inbuilt replacement of ${env.abc}

public void beforExecute(StepExecutionTracker stepExecutionTracker) {

 step.setDescription(stepExecutionTracker.getStep().getDescription().replaceAll("generate.passport_no", utils.generatePassport("USA"));

}

-- Throwing error

Note: The below implementation works for reports, not actual execution. The report is getting changed, but the execution is not getting replaced value.

stepExecutionTracker.getStep.getDescription((stepExecutionTracker.getStep().getDescription().replaceAll("generate.passport_no", utils.generatePassport("USA")).

you should try using setDescription method. There can be better ways to achieve it without modifying step description.

1 work with step arguments instead of description

2 you can use expression as parameter in property value, for instance ${exp:fully.qulifiled.classname.generatePassport("USA")} refer documentation for property parameter-interpolation
