I am new to Gherkin.
I am writing the following statement in Gherkin:
Given user have institution_1 in database
And here institution_1 for me is just a regular noun, I do not want it to be a variable or have index "1".
The Java function auto-generated by Cucumber-JVM is:
@Given("^user have institution_(\\d+) in database as follows:$")
public void user_have_institution__in_database(int arg1) throws Throwable {
}
How do I rewrite it so that Cucumber-JVM will recognize that "1" does not have special meaning, and return to me something like:
@Given("^user have institution_1 in database as follows:$")
public void user_have_institution_1_in_database() throws Throwable {
}
Thanks!
EDIT: My question is: Cucumber-JVM see every number is Gherkins as numeric argument, for example,
"institution_1"
is converted to:
"institution_(\\d+)"
and the java function will have a
(int arg1)
argument.
What I want is to have Cucumber-JVM not to convert to:
@Given("^user have institution_(\\d+) in database as follows:$")
but to something like:
@Given("^user have institution_1 in database as follows:$")
or some other form where regular expression will catch it but not having an argument. Because in common sense, 1 in XXXXX_1 is not meant be a numeric argument, but a character.
If that's not possible, how can I have this to work?
@Given("^user have institution_(\\d+) in database as follows:$")
public void user_have_institution__in_database() throws Throwable {
}
Manually edit the generated Gherkin to:
@Given("^user have institution_1 in database as follows:$")
public void user_have_institution_in_database() throws Throwable {
}
