Cucumber DataDriven with Maps in Selenium - Part 5

Maps in Data Tables:

Maps in Data Tables can be used in different ways. Headers/Columns can also be defined for the test data. A same step definition can be executed multiple times with different set of test data using Maps.

Maps in Data Tables with Header:

In the previous tutorial video of Data Tables in Cucumber, we pass Username & Password without Header, due to which the test was not much readable. What if there will be many columns. The basic concept of BDD test is to make the Test in Business readable format, so that business users can understand it easily.

Learn:
+Test Data Tables in Cucumber using Maps
+How to parametrize test cases using Data Table - Maps

Scenario Outline:

--This uses Example keyword to define the test data for the Scenario
--This works for the whole test.
--Cucumber automatically run the complete test the number of times equal to the number of data in the Test Set.

Great tutorials on cucumber on youtube so far. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[keerthid]

Each and every tutorials are simply Awesome... Thank you!!!

[cynoldias]

Hi Naveen,
It will be good, if you explain these concept using Page object model conecpts and findby elements, Because real world scenarios usually return using POM concept, Those driver.find element will be rarely used.

[sanjuk]

Very good cucumber sessions... Getting lot of knowledge.... Thank you

[sureshsubramaniyan]

Hi Naveen Thanks for sharing this parameterized concept, please clarify below two things
1 ) when we want to use Scenario and Scenario Outline
2) how to pass the data from XL-Sheet instead of features file for parameter concept


As per my understanding if we want to pass the data from the feature file with header name then we have to use Scenario Outline . Otherwise we can use Scenario..


Please correct it, if my understanding is wrong.

[mayankjain]

Very well explained thanks, Naveen Sir !!!

[vinodhbalaji]

you're doing an amazing work bro :) Thank you for sharing your knowledge

[abhikumar]

Naveen, can u plz demonstrate the same with getting data from excel (multiple row data)
and executing the scenario multiple times.
That would be a top-notch example which everyone wants to achieve.
Thanks a ton !!!

[divyamuruganath]

Thanks Guru... You made me to feel enthu of easy learning automation.

[amitkunjir]

Nice explanation
Can u also cover below points?
1. Custom DataTables
2. List of Maps
3. Map of List
4. DataTable in combination with Examples

[sindiyarajan]

Hi Naveen. Thank you for the simple explanation.
A query: You have used the same statements in 'deals.feature' and 'dealsmap.feature'. How did you overcome error. Please help.
If anyone else reading this comment knows the answer, please respond. It will be of great help.

Hi Naveen,

I have 1question- I am very new to this (cucumber) framework
In real-time scenarios- which one most is preferable whether scenarios outline -ex’s (OR) data tables/map
Even that’s is based on application/ company scope - but more required ones?

[vishwambharborde]

Hi Naveen, @22mins, instead of copy pasting new deal navigation, we can call the method in for each loop, thanks for the wonderful session

[PriyaBhandariOfficial]

The only thing I got confused here is, After clicking on the save button and while moving to the deal page again, why don't we switch the frame. As we switch the Frame while clicking on the deal page on line number 64 ( 22:10).Thank You. Appreciate it.

[Star-vgix]

very good as usual, but you REALLY should use a magnified screen.

[rameshbangaru]

hi naveen good series..nice.. i have small doubt ..comapre to map object Examples key word is it better..to datadriven test..pls any one can reply my query...

[anikkumarsaha]

@Naveen : Thanks for the video. I have one query here: I have mulit set of data for multistatments, How would i do that? for example I have a scenario where I need to enter member details, then contact details then check save and then again rerun the same for the next of the data. How do I do that in Cucumber?

[asifsongs]

Naveen I think you have skipped some manipulation on Map object @ 10:16 to 10:18.

[gasparottogui]

Naveen, would you prefer working with data tables over examples? If so, any specific reason? Thanks!
