Hi,
writing to Excel files doesn't belong to WebTest's scope (nevertheless
you can surely do it as the needed libraries are there).
Do you need to write to the Excel file? What about storing the
information as Ant property (caution, you need an Ant extension if your
different webtests are not in the same project) or in a file to read it
as property later?
Cheers,
Marc.

Hi all
I would like to create a data driven test whereby i capture some result
value (i.e an ID) during the test run, then store it in excel to be used
later by another test after the current test completes.
Typical example would be
Test Data: 5 rows in excel to iterate through
*Run test A*
* Creates 5 users
* For each iteration of user created, capture the userID (possibly
write userID to excel)
* test A completes successfully
*Run Test B* immediately after test A completes and use the stored
values as input to iterate thru (as in test A)
The tests could possible be in separate targets and i believe the
property variables would be out of scope unless i write and read from a
property file. I am also not sure how to specify config such that i can
invoke an excel file to write to.
(from excel.xml Selftests)
<steps>
<invoke url="${webtest.home}/Development/Test.xls"/>
</steps>
Resulting page -> complete url
http://localhost/c:/Webtest/Development/Test.xls (notice localhost is
added at the beginning)
Any examples or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
