I'm just getting started with Fitnesse.
I am trying to use a result of a query (number?) and with that result use it in another test fixture. so e.g.
!|Create Account |
|Contractor No |Account State |Account Name |Account Type |Invoice Template Name|Number?|Result?|
|${ContractorNo}|${AccountState}|${AccountName}|${AccountType}|${InvoiceTempName} | |TRUE |
!|Check Account |
|AccountNo |Account Exists?|
|(result from number?)|TRUE |
is there anyway of doing this? ive tried this: SymbolTestTables, but this seems to be for one entire record instead of just the result from one function.
As i said im new to fitnesse so i apologize if this is easy.
I think the page you are referring to is the Fit style symbols.
I recommend that folks either use Slim, or move to FitLibrary; as both are better supported than just FIT.
If you are doing things the Slim way, you would want to look at this page: Symbols in tables
And if you were doing the Slim way, your table would look like this:
!|Create Account |
|Contractor No |Account State |Account Name |Account Type |Invoice Template Name|Number? |Result?|
|${ContractorNo}|${AccountState}|${AccountName}|${AccountType}|${InvoiceTempName} |$accountNumber= |TRUE |
!|Check Account |
|AccountNo |Account Exists?|
|$accountNumber|TRUE |
I'm not as familiar with the FitLibrary style, so I will refer you to their documentation: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/fitlibrary/index.php?title=Main_Page
With .NET/Fit, you can use << and >> to store and recall values, but I don't know if this is supported with Java:
!|Create Account |
|Contractor No |Account State |Account Name |Account Type |Invoice Template Name|Number? |Result?|
|${ContractorNo}|${AccountState}|${AccountName}|${AccountType}|${InvoiceTempName} |>>AccountNumber|TRUE |
!|Check Account |
|AccountNo |Account Exists?|
|<<AccountNumber |TRUE |
