Special functions in datafiles¶
Datafiles (or in Excel Simple format simply a tab “data”) generally hold the data for one or more testcases.
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.
Additionally there are some reserved names that deliver the following functionality:
