In Fitnesse, how to encrypt login passwords

Hello Sanalt,

some questions here:

Do you want to encrypt the password that is in the properties? or the password on the script? can you clarify this to understand your requirement?

I would like to add some comments on this.
option 1) personally i like more this
On the script : |login with role| role.user.something|
On the configs/users.properties: role.user.something=username|password

option 2) rather than
on the script :|login with username|USERNAME| and password| PASSWORD|

on the option 1) you have the password on the local machine which belongs on each user installation, (if you are sharing the the whole installation folder then you can ignore in your version control software (this is more secure than the other)

on the option 2) what i don't like is that the password is on the script and if you have to share the scripts everybody will be able to see the password, which i don't think is desired.

with this said please let us know more about your requirement, which options you are using is the option 1 not enough and you still need to encrypt that? if so please take a look at @mohamedt808 comments

Hope this helps
Jose

tried option 1) On the script : |login with role| it was working fine

You can have all the usernames and passwords in user.properties file
