how to get total row count in Excel File Datasource

Using groovy script,

 

1) how can I get total row count in a Excel File which is used as DataSource?

2) How can I get Data from a specific row in a Excel File which is used as DataSource?

 

 

Same question was posted couple of years back, no reply for that post. Hopefully I will get an answer form SmartBear

  • Hello JayKondra,

    I don't know answer for DataSource step. If you need a workaround however, here is groovy code that uses the Apache POI library that gives you great capability for interogating Excel files...
    .
    .
    .
    import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*;
    import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.DataFormatter;

     

    def currentFullFileName = 'C:\\Users\\{whatever path to your excel file}\\sample_file.xlsx';
    excelFile = new File(currentFullFileName);

    log.info "excelFile=" + excelFile;

     

    srcBook = new XSSFWorkbook(new FileInputStream(excelFile)); // Create a new workbook using POI API
    fEval = new XSSFFormulaEvaluator(srcBook); // Create formula evaluator to handle formula cells

     

    dFormatter = new DataFormatter(); // handle the formatting of numeric data when it's converted to text for use with our property setter methods
    sheetCount = srcBook.getNumberOfSheets();
    log.info "sheetCount=" + sheetCount;

     

    sheetIndx = 0;
    while(sheetIndx < sheetCount) {
       sourceSheet = srcBook.getSheetAt(sheetIndx); // Get first sheet of the workbook (assumes data is on first sheet)
       log.info "################### sheet=" + sheetIndx;
       log.info "################### sheetName=" + sourceSheet.getSheetName();
       log.info "################### sheetRows=" + sourceSheet.getPhysicalNumberOfRows();
       log.info "################### sheetLastRow=" + sourceSheet.getLastRowNum();
       //row = sourceSheet.getRow(sourceSheet.getLastRowNum());
       //log.info "################### sheetLastColumn=" + row.getPhysicalNumberOfCells();
       sourceSheet.eachWithIndex { row, rIndex -> // each row of sheet
          colIndx = 0;
          while(colIndx < 10) { // just looking at first 10 columns
             log.info '>' + dFormatter.formatCellValue(row.getCell(colIndx), fEval) + '<';
             colIndx++;
          };
       };
       sheetIndx++;
    };
    log.info 'Test Step "' + testRunner.runContext.currentStep.name + '" done...';

    .

    .

    You might be able to pick something out of this sample that you could use in a pinch. :)

    Can we skip first row from the data sheet ??

  • replace previous sample loop with this...

    .

    .

    .

    sourceSheet.eachWithIndex { row, rIndex -> // each row of sheet
       if (rIndex > 0) {
          colIndx = 0;
          while(colIndx < 10) {
             log.info '>' + dFormatter.formatCellValue(row.getCell(colIndx), fEval) + '<';
             colIndx++;
          };
       };
    };

    .

    .

    .

    The added 'if' statement skips the first row of a sheet.

     

    Regards.

  • def sourceName = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName('DataSource');
    def dsRows = sourceName.rowCount;

    def sourceName = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName('DataSource');
    def dsRows = sourceName.rowCount;
