gpc-for-loop

A precompiler of GherKing to loop scenarios and scenario outlines to repeat them.

In the case of scenario outlines, it copies all rows of examples, resulting in iterator × rows number of scenarios when tests are run.

Usage

Identify scenario or scenario outline to be repeated and mark it with ${loopTag}(${i}) e.g. @loop(4).

The precompiler will then repeat this scenario or scenario outline for ${i} times, modifying its name according to the format.

Configurable variables and their default options:

| Option | Default | Description | | :--------: | :----------------: | :----------------------------------------------------- | | maxValue | 10 | Maximum value of iteration | | tagName | 'loop' | Tag used to mark scenarios or outlines to be repeated | | format | '${name} (${i})' | Format of the scenario or outline name after repeating || startIndex | 1 | The first index to use when repeating a scenario | | limitToMaxValue | true | Whether higher iteration values than the max should be limited to the max or error should be thrown ( false ) |

See examples for the input files and output in the test/data folder.
