Filtering by Examples using specflow

[Sudhindra G]

Hi Team -

We have a requirement where we want to filter our Examples table data & run tests only specific to the test environment e.g.,

Scenario Outline: 1. Navigate to home page
        Given I login
        When i search with ClientId
        Then i am taken to page specific to ClientId

 Examples:
 |environment| ClientId         |
 |qa| 123 |
 |prod| 777    |

Lets say i want to execute the above test only with ClientId 123 when i run test in qa environment = ''qa". How can i achieve it in Specflow. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi,

Directly you can not filter environment from examples. Instead u could use tags. 

Other approach would be read data from examples via steps and handle them in bindings by reading target environment from test settings or srprofile in conditional statements.

Thank you.

Praveen

Hi,

In .srprofile we have an option called Filters. 

<Filter>QA</Filtet>

Hi praveen - 

If i plan to use filters then i need to duplicate my feature files and add tags for every test environment.

Cheers,

We can achieve this using tags for Examples in Scenario Outlines, Refer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57992278/can-you-tag-individual-examples-in-a-scenario-outline-in-specflow
