Scenario Outline Examples do not work with Table parameters

[pahniki]

Hello. I'm trying to get into Radish and found unexpected for me behavior.

I have a scenario with test parameterization via Scenario Outline, like this one:

Feature: Whatever.

  Scenario Outline: Test radish parametrization
    Then Print <num1> and <num2>
      | a      | b      |
      | <num1> | <num2> |

    Examples:
      | num1 | num2 |
      | 1        | 2        |
      | 3        | 4        |

And this step:

@step("Print {num1:d} and {num2:d}")
def print_num(step, num1, num2):
    logger.info("Line params: {} {}".format(num1, num2))
    logger.info("Table params: {}".format(step.table))

But for some reason values inside of the table are not replaced by values inside of Examples. Output I received:

Line params: 1 2
Table params: [{u'a': u'<num1>', u'b': u'<num2>'}]
Line params: 3 4
Table params: [{u'a': u'<num1>', u'b': u'<num2>'}]

From my point of view that's a bug. Could you please provide some information about it? And is there any work around?

Thanks for the submission! It's indeed something that's not supported as of today. I'll have a look at a possible implementation in master.

I'm not entirely sure about it, though. Would you expect it also to work in a Step Text ? Like:

Scenario Outline: ...
    When some step
        """
        some <var> bla
        """

Examples:
     | var |
     | 1    |

Thank you for the answer.

That would make my life a bit easier.=)

Well I could see it being useful. I've tried this approach yesterday too. That's what I've got with the next code:

Feature: Whatever.

  Scenario Outline: Test radish parametrization
    When Print
      """
      <num1>
      """

    Examples:
      | num1 |
      | 1    |
      | 3    |

@step("Print {num1}")
def print_num(step, num1):
    logger.info("Line params: {}".format(num1))

Result:

Error: Cannot find step definition for step 'When Print' in Features/parametrization2.feature:11

Best regards

Yeah, well that's not how Step Doc Strings, work (sorry, I was referring to it as text which is wrong) ...

You don't have to match the Doc String in the Step Pattern
