Hello,
I am using a trial version of Test Studio, and its my first time with test automation so excuse me newbie questions.
Here goes a scenario.
I got a list of different ids that i need to navigate to and make my tests
What i can do is
1. Start a recorder
2. Navigate to each URL individually and repeat
What i want to do is navigate to a different url e.g. http://domain.com/user={username} and repeat the test with different inputs
So first go will be
Step 1. http://domain.com/user=kim
Step 2. Enter FirstName Kim
Step 3. LastName Yahun
Step 4 .Click submit
then
http://domain.com/user=clara
then goto step 2 but enter clara and jack instead
How do i achieve this?
Please refer me to any videos
Thanks and sorry for the long post

okays i was able to databind at least but now i get the following error
Url passed in has invalid format. If you are trying to use relative paths,
I data binded to an excel file which has one column user and it contains two rows kim and clara
the navigate url is as follows but still says invalid any ideas
http://domain.com/users/index.html#/user= - DataDriven: [$(user)]
Data binding is the right approach. I can offer 2 solutions to this problem:
1) Use 3 columns in your Excel file. The first column is the full and complete URL to navigate to e.g. http://domain.com/user=kim. The second column is just the user name. The third column is the last name. Data bind each column to the appropriate test step. The first column to your NavigateTo step, the second column to the step entering first name and the third column to the step entering the last name.
2) Use a coded step to concatenate the first name column to the static string "http://domain.com/user=" and use that for the NavigateTo, all via code. You can then use non-coded steps to enter the first name and last name the same as option 1 above.
If you need help with the code for option 2, let me know.
P.S. Don't worry about your "long" post (it was really very long). We prefer long posts over posts that are too short and don't give us enough information to assist the customer.
