Hi Egil (and Mauro), Blurb means "a brief summary or description of a work". It's not a data type as much as a word that I felt described exactly what was there; a brief summary. It might be in narrative form; it might be a comment about the scenario.
"Narrative" might be better. However, I don't have "Story: <title>" in my scenarios; it really is just Blurb for me. If you add a title, you'll be forcing others to adhere to that template; they may not want to, especially if their scenario files really are single scenario files. Perhaps you could find a way to convert the Blurb to your Story using a converter of some sort? I'd also prefer generally that we didn't rename existing classes until 3.0 - it tends to break things! Other people may have implemented their own reporters too. Re GivenScenario vs. GivenStory - A scenario is a series of steps which leave you in a clearly defined state. A story has a collection of independent scenarios - so running them to leave you in a defined state makes no sense to me. I can understand wanting priority. I can also understand wanting to reuse scenarios. The two things are very different, though! If you're using priority to ensure that a scenario sets up context for another scenario, that Given will be magically performed, and hidden from anyone who tries to replicate that scenario manually by reading your scenario text. As soon as you do that - use magic in your scenario files - you're making it impossible for the business to follow them, and you might as well be writing the scenarios directly in code. I'm really glad you're experimenting with the flexibility of JBehave. It makes me happy to see that it does most of the things users want it to, or can be adapted! Please let us know how the HTML reporting goes, and remember those of us out there who may be doing things a bit differently to you. :) Cheers, Liz. -- Elizabeth Keogh [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jbehave.org http://lizkeogh.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
