Allow a step to be reused between scenarios with and without example tables
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBEHAVE-215
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JBEHAVE-215
Project: JBehave
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Cristiano Gavião
Fix For: 2.4
I would like to reuse Step classes and its methods in both scenarios that don't
use example tables and also in scenarios that I want to use it.
For example:
{code}
This scenario we don't use example table, and its very flexible and reusable:
Given that user is editing Suppliers
When user input 12 for rankNumber
And input 3300,00 for maxValue
Then system sends a email to the managers with title 'Supplier rank was
changed'.
{code}
For this work today I just need to create a step method like this:
{code}
@When("user inputs $value for $field")
@Alias("inputs $value for $field")
public void whenUserInputsValue(@Named("field") String pField,
@Named("value") String pValue)
{
}
{code}
That step method is very reusable indeed a lot of scenarios could use it.
But if I want to use the benefit of an Example table in this scenario (maybe I
found out others businesse rules that could be treat here too), I don't have
this flexibility anymore, because Example table needs the steps sentence be
fixed and table column matching @Named parameters.
So I will need to construct other method for the same purpose.
Today example tables need that the column tables match the parameter names
