Pass arguments with double quotes string to steps

Question

I have the following Scenario defined:

Scenario: test
    When test starts
    Then check data with '{"age":"18","gender":"male"}'

Then try to pass {"age":"18","gender":"male"} to the step:

func FeatureContext(s *godog.ScenarioContext) {
    s.Step(`^check data with "([^']*)"$`, checkDataWith)
}

func checkDataWith(data string) error {
    return godog.ErrPending
}

It says the step is not impelmented, looks like the {"age":"18","gender":"male"} is not passed correctly, how to pass parameter like {"age":"18","gender":"male"} to step?

This answer helped me on the other case: https://stackoverflow.com/a/19257196

In your case you can try to:

func FeatureContext(s *godog.ScenarioContext) {
    s.Step(`^check data with '(.*)'$`, checkDataWith)
}

func checkDataWith(data string) error {
    return godog.ErrPending
}

So the data will be passed to your scenario in the way it was in the step description:

{"age":"18","gender":"male"}
