How to implement complex logical scenario in a keyword driven automation framework
I have implemented Keyword driven framework for my project in which I have written functions for different actions that are being performed on the aplication e.g. Click, Input etc. I am Passing the objects alias name and keyword name through an excel sheet. A driver script is written to extract this data from Excel using DDT driver.So for every step of testcase I pass object's alias name and keyword to the driver script.
Now I need to create a test case in which I need to split a string and extract a number out of that, at one page and reapeat the same process on two other pages and after that compare results. I am not able to understand how should I implement it.Can someone please guide me.
How should I implement this scenarios in my framework. How can I store data extracted on each page and then perform calculation at the end.
Please give a sample code if possible.
Two suggestions:
1) Investigate using Project or Project Suite variables to store the values globally so that you can then access them in subsequent test steps.
2) If you'd prefer a more direct "code" solution, consider making a Script Extension Run Time Object that has properties that you can read from and write to that will be available between test steps/scenarios.
