Meta Data section in the scenario JSON

Objective

• This will help to capture any comments or useful information about authors or ticket(jira story) or a test category etc.

The section could look like below-

{
    "scenarioName": "Scenario Verify Person REST apis as well as DB layer",
    "ignoreStepFailures": false,
    "steps": [
        {
            "name": "get_enitity",
            "url": "/api/v1/people/visa/{id}",
            "method": "GET",
            "request": {
            },
            "assertions": {
                "status": 200
            }
        }
    ],
    "meta": {
        "authors": ["Emma", "Sidd", "Krish"],
        "tickets": ["ISSUE-519", "GT-312"],
        "categories": ["dev", "sit1", "sit2"],
        "others":["Runs every day", "Need to speak to Security team"]
        // and so on...
    }
}

• Show these in the reports etc.

@authorjapps - metdata tag is associated with steps or should it be associated with scenario? I think if we associate metadata with scenario then it will have more significance and useful too in reporting. E.g. Scenario - always comes with specific ticket and steps can have more than one steps so I think metadata should along with scenario. Suggestions?

Hello @jneate , thanks for your interest in contributing. Seems like we will have to expand this issue a bit - will add more details soon. You can then pick it.

In the mean time(if you get chance) You can look at this bug => https://github.com/authorjapps/zerocode/issues/241 (This was definitely working earlier, but introduced in the recent releases… ie couple versions ago).

This is a minor bug - Somewhere the report builder is missing an entry.

Hope this will give a good start for the first issue ! 👍
