    Hi,

     

    To my knowledge, pure BDD by design does not support dependencies.

    As a kind of workaround you may try the following:

    -- (Optionally) move dependent scenario(s) to separate file(s);

    -- Organize test items in the Execution Plan according to the required dependencies. E.g. like this:

    | Item for Scenario A

    | |- Item for Scenario B

    | Item for Scenario C

     

    -- And then set 'Stop current item' option for the On Error column in the Execution Plan editor.

Hi Naveen,

 

I hope you are keeping well.

 

In Test Complete you can use the "Treat each example in Scenario Outline as a separate test case " this can be configured in

Tools -> Current Project Properties -> BDD and enable the following

 

For more details here is the documentation on the properties; 

https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/working-with/managing-projects/properties/bdd/general.html

 

Please let me know if this resolves your query or if you have any additional questions.

 

Thanks,

Shane
