<h1>Special functions in datafiles<a class="headerlink" href="#special-functions-in-datafiles" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>Datafiles (or in Excel Simple format simply a tab “data”) generally hold the data for one or more testcases.</p>
<p>The first line of the datafile holds the header line. Each cell in the header must have a unique value and acts as variablename,
which you can use for checking, for IF-Statements or as values to write into fields or compare with assertions.</p>
<p>Additionally there are some reserved names that deliver the following functionality:</p>
