Defining steps

Naming conventions

Several entities defined in the specification are later used by its name in the step definitions. To make it easier to understand more complex configurations, it is good practice to encode the type of the entity into its name, for example as a suffix, such as _pset, _files, _sub, _pat.

XML example

XML

<parameterset name="my_pset">
  ...
</parameterset>
<fileset name="my_files">
  ...
</fileset>
<step name="my_step">
  <use>my_pset</use>
  <use>my_files</use>
</step>

YAML example

XML

parameterset:
    name: my_pset
    ...

fileset:
    name: my_files

step:
    use:
        my_pset
        my_files

Key Points

• You can generate build files from templates using dynamic values from parameter sets.
