Re: [jbehave-dev] Override step in Jbehave

[Mauro Talevi]

Hi,

thanks for explaining your scenario.  In this case, a custom 
ErrorMessage type and a custom converter that looks up the translation 
in a file or database would seem your best option.

Let use know if you encounter problems in its implementation.

Cheers

HI,

This is one the option we are thinking for i18n testing.

I know JBehave have i18n testing example but we don’t want to convert 
entire story file in language we supporting. We only want to convert 
labels and messages in different language and test and keep everything 
in English. We are planning to have converted text in multiple 
languages available in files (key/values) or database.

Using below example, error message or label “abc” will be in English, 
then using language files we convert values to appropriate 
language(language set in application.properties) before do compare 
with actual value. Now, we want to include this converted text in the 
HTML report.

One other option I was thinking to these message in story example 
template and use meta filter but there are so many and we don’t want 
to maintain in feature file.

What do you suggest we should do to test this kind of scenario?

Thanks,

Nikunj

It's possible if you define your own custom converter, but it should 
be associated to a custom parameter type, e.g. ErrorCode.

Then you implement the value conversion logic in the parameter converter.

That said, it does not really seem very logical to do this.   What's 
your usecase?

    Hi,

    Is there any way in Jbehave we can override step with converted
    parameter values?

    Here is what I am trying to do:

    For Example:

    I have step in feature file- Then error message “abc” should be
    displayed.

    Let’s see I am converting  string from “abc”  to “xyz”.

    Now, I want to override feature file step with converted value and
    see HTML report like-  Then error message “xyz” should be displayed.

    Thanks,
