FitNesse Tutorials 194

Here is another tutorial for FitNesse: http://schuchert.wikispaces.com/FitNesse.Tutorials.2.

This tutorial and the first now all fit together and form one ongoing example. If you work though the first three tutorials at: http://schuchert.wikispaces.com/FitNesse.Tutorials, you’ll have practiced:
  • Using Decision Tables
  • Using Query Tables
  • Refactoring within FitNesse
  • Using SetUp and TearDown pages
  • Understanding inheritance of SetUp and TearDown pages
  • Basic test organization under a suite
  • Switching into unit testing from acceptance testing

There’s more to go, but that’s a good start to get you cracking at the fundamentals of FitNesse.

As a bonus, there’s a demonstration of some code in Java that produces query results in a snap. The source code is on github: http://github.com/schuchert/queryresultbuilder/tree/master.

Here is one such example taken from that tutorial:
   public List<Object> query() {
      List<Program> programs = CreateSeasonPassFor.getSeasonPassManager()
            .toDoListContentsFor(programId);

      QueryResultBuilder builder = new QueryResultBuilder(Program.class);
      builder.register("timeSlot", new TimeSlotPropertyHandler());
      QueryResult result = builder.build(programs);
      return result.render();
   }

Hope this is useful!
