Questions regarding Appian FitNesse tool


#AppianFitNesse

I am working on Appian FitNesse and there are some bottlenecks which I would like share. If anybody has encountered the same limitations in Appian FitNesse and have overcome them, please suggest those solutions.

1.          Looping in Appian FitNesse
          
          There is a scenario where I want to run a Test Page multiple times by getting the test data from CSV or Database dynamically.
          Is there any looping method to achieve this.

2.          Conditional Statement in Appian FitNesse

          I have a requirement where if a condition is true, I want to execute some statements, else execute some other statements.
          In other words does Appian FitNesse has If Else statement in it.
          Ex: if(condition 1)
                    {
                              Statement 1
                    }
                    else
                    {
                              Statement 2
                    }
          I know there is a "check" keyword/method in Appian FitNesse but it doesn't suffice my above requirement. Please suggest if there is some method which I can use with "check" to achieve...

  • @sidhantb. I agree we don't have facility to populate fields from CSV or DB. You need to populate the fields manually by writing the Scripts. Hope we may get this further FitNesseForAppian versions.

    Regarding the Second scenario. Yes we don't have the conditional statements also.
    I just want to know what type of statements you want to execute in the conditional statements. Do you simply want to populate the fields based on a condition or you want to check verification. Could you please elaborate the scenario in detail so that we can think for work arround.
