Cucumber Tests (or scenarios) are of two Scenario Types:
- Scenario: a a set of instructions exclusively composed by of constant values, which, when executed by a tool, will only give a static result (e.g., 2 + 3 = 5)
- Scenario Outline: a generic set of instructions containing variables, which, when executed by a tool, will prompt varied results according to the specified input.
In Xray, you can specify the scenario directly on the Test issue.

Please note that custom field Cucumber Test Type field is now deprecated since Xray Data Center versions V7.3.0 or higher. This field will now automatically detect if the Test has a simple Scenario or a Scenario Outline. |
