Support for xls files #147

Open vicneanschi opened 7 years ago

Is is possible to add support for xls files like in FolderRunner? http://butunclebob.com/FitNesse.UserGuide.FitLibraryUserGuide.FolderRunner

jediwhale commented 7 years ago

It might be possible. Can you say more about how you would like this to work?

Basically it should read Excel Spreadsheet instead of HTML.

I found the Java sources for fitlibrary which supports SpreadsheetRunner:

There are some examples of xls files here:

It's more convenient to work with Excel files because you can use formulas.

Thanks. I'm taking a look at it. These are old style Excel files (.xls), I assume we'd use current style (.xlsx) now.

I agree about .xlsx Thanks.

jediwhale commented 7 years ago

looks reasonable to do. I'll add it to next release (no target date yet)

Thanks Mike!

I would love this feature. We define alle our tests in Excel and paste them into Fitnesse manually. It is tediuos work when we make changes that require recalculation of answers. It would be great if we could run the tests directly from xlsx files!

jediwhale commented 6 years ago

Early release 2.6.1 has a preliminary version of this feature

efauske commented 6 years ago

We are using the SLIM test system to run our test (fitSharp.Slim.Service.Runner). As far as I can understand, the SpreadsheetFormat support added now only works using FIT?

Is it possible to use this new SpreadsheetFormat feature within a test suite already containing test in the SLIM test system?

Ideally, I would like it to be possible to have folders with .xlsx and .xlsm files which are automatically parsed and executed along with our existing files (which is currently defined in "content.txt" and *.wiki files).

Spreadsheets are not supported for SLIM. I can't control the SLIM file formats from fitSharp. You could request spreadsheet support for SLIM here: https://github.com/unclebob/fitnesse/issues
