CodePudding user response:
Afaik you cannot use variables from your examples in the background. In your example, if you need different logins, you'll need to make that a step in your actual scenario.
CodePudding user response:
Cucumber doesn't support scenario outline in background. You need to define that in the scenario, which means if you want to user scenario outline you can't use that step in Back ground.
