New issue 1558 by [email protected]: Introduce "OR" function in Tagging
test cases while execution as compared to "AND" and "NOT".
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1558
Introduce "OR" function in Tagging test cases while execution as compared
to "AND" and "NOT".
In Current implementation while tagging the test cases we have only "AND"
and "NOT" options available to include or exclude. But we need "OR"
Function as well.
Analogy:
Suppose, I have bunch of test cases with Tags have "Tag1, Tag2,
Tag3....Tag10".
Now my requirement is whichever test cases having "Tag1, Tag3, Tag5, Tag7",
should be excluded from the execution.
With current implementation I can execute above requirement as
"Pybot -i Tag* -e Tage1ANDTag3ANDTag5ANDTag7 Exmple.txt".
In this case test cases which have all "Tag1, Tag3, Tag5, Tag7" will
exclude from test, since "AND" combination.
In real time all the test cases may not contain all tags, i.e., Testcase 1
contains Tag1, and Testcase 2 contains Tag3. So in this case above command
will not exclude these tests, even though I asked to exclude. since
above "exclude Options" will not match (AND).
So in order solve this problem we should have "OR" functions.
SO now if command has "Pybot -i Tag* -e Tage1ORTag3ORTag5ORTag7
Example.txt".
Then above case illustrates in whole test cases which is having any of
these tags will be excluded.
However with existing implementation I can exclude test cases with "Tag1,
Tag3, Tag5, Tag7" tags in include options itself using "NOT" operator. Like.
"Pybot -i Tag*NOTTage1NOTTag3NOTTag5NOTTag7 Example.txt".
But its not worth solution, even we have exclude option. According to me as
long has "OR" functions not available "Exclude" option is not user friendly.
