Looping series of test step using groovy

Hi Gautam,

 

Your steps look good e.g. I thought I undertood what you are looking to do... but I can't understand why you need the for loop in your loop step?

 

I might be missing something, but I think all you need to do is check that the currentCount < maxCount if so loop? e.g. no need for for loop, but something like 

 

if (currentCount < maxCount) testRunner.gotoStepByN
ame("GetNextRowAndExractValues")

 

(you'll maybe have to adjust for your variable names)

 

Sorry if I missed something,

 

Cheers,

Rup

Could not stop asking why currentCount is being read from a property while it can be start from either 1 or 0?

And do not need to increment currentCount inside of for as an explicit statement, instead you could do something like one of the below:

for (int currentCount=0;currentCount < maxCount; currentCount++) {
     //do the stuff here
}

 

or

 

for (int currentCount=1;currentCount <= maxCount; currentCount++) {
     //do the stuff here
}

 

If the above are confusing whether to continue till < or <= or star with 0 or 1, then below is good and groovified too:

 

(0..maxCount).each {
       //do the stuff
}

 

If you are in need with index, then here is your fried:

 

 

(0..maxCount).eachWithIndex { index ->
       //do the stuff, and use index where ever it is needed
}

 

So any of the above methods will automatically loop thru the defined number of times (maxCount)
