Re: [jbehave-dev] Have all test data in one .table file

2013-05-05 Thread Mauro Talevi
Hi,

yes I understand the concept but it does not answer the question of how you see 
it working.  Can you provide a concrete example of story and data file?

Cheers

 Why don't you start by explaining your usecase and how you'd use it? 
 
 There are good reasons not to put all the data in a file as it hinders 
 readability and communication.   That said it may be useful and practical in 
 some cases. 
 
 Please post a concrete example of how you'd see it working.

 Correct that: you can replace a table with a file content, but not map 
 arbitrarily the rows from the scenario.
