!2 !-Markup Variables-!
|
||
|
|
Markup variables are used for macro-replacement in pages. They provide another way to parameterize your tests with static values (not changing during a test execution). Define a variable using: {{{
|
||
|
|
!define variablename {value} }}}
|
||
|
|
and then use it anywhere in the page with this syntax: {{{
|
||
|
|
!-${value}-! }}}
|
||
|
|
Unlike symbols, markup variables can be used also as a part of a cell. Note that variables are processed while building the HTML page, so they are not available to fixtures at runtime. Here is an example: {{{
|
||
|
|
!define town {Houston}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|ColumnFixtureTest|
|
||
|
|
|firstPart|secondPart|together?|
|
||
|
|
|Hello|World|Hello, World|
|
||
|
|
|${town}|We Have a Problem|${town}, We Have a Problem|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
}}}
|
||
|
|
Markup variables are especially useful to extract a common value to a single place, so that it can be changed easily. They can also be used to parameterise included pages. For example, you can write a test component that is frequently used, and then call it with different parameter values by using markup variables. See <UserGuide.ParameterizedIncludes for an example.
