Squish tip of the week: Validating all scenarios of a list object

Need to validate all options in a particular scenario in your application?
For example a list which triggers another event.

The following example takes list values and validates the exacted text appears when the value is selected:

BDD Test Case (Feature File)

Feature: Product details lookup

  Looking up product description

   Scenario Outline: Verify details for selected project
   Given the application is loaded
   When I select product '<Product>' to evaluate
   Then the related product '<Product>' text '<Description>' appears
   Examples:
     | Product   | Description    |
     | Qt     | Test Qt, QML and QtQuick and 4JS GDC applications on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Unix, embedded Linux, WinCE, QNX and other RTOSes |
     | Java   | Test AWT, Swing, SWT, RCP, Eclipse and JavaFx applications on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and other Unix-based systems.  |
     | Coco         | C/C++, C# and Tcl code coverage (commercial evaluation) |

Test Script (Implementation File)

Given("the application is loaded", function(context, Product, Description) {
        startBrowser("https://www.froglogic.com/squish/evaluate.php");
    });

When("I select product '|any|' to evaluate", function(context, product, description) {

    selectOption(waitForObject(":froglogic • • Evaluate Squish.d[product]_select-one"), productString);
    });

Then("the related product '|any|' text '|any|' appears", function(context, Product, Description) {
        waitFor("object.exists(':froglogic • • Evaluate Squish.productdescription_SPAN')", 20000);
