How to Use the Example Tag in Specflow ? What is that mean in the gherkin Syntax . Any example or blog redirection will help, Thanks

Answer 1

How about directly from the github examples?

Basically, this usually goes with a Scenario Outline, which is just a way of running the same scenario with different input/output data without having to retype the entire scenario. Usually, I have seen this as Scenarios, but it appears the Examples will work also.

From the example:

The following two scenarios:

Scenario: Title should be matched
    When I perform a simple search on 'Domain'
    Then the book list should exactly contain book 'Domain Driven Design'

Scenario: Space should be treated as multiple OR search
    When I perform a simple search on 'Windows Communication'
    Then the book list should exactly contain books 'Inside Windows SharePoint Services', 'Bridging the Communication Gap'

Are the same as this one Scenario Outline

@alternative_syntax
Scenario Outline: Simple search (scenario outline syntax)
    When I perform a simple search on '<search phrase>'
    Then the book list should exactly contain books <books>

    Examples:
        |search phrase          |books                                                                  |
        |Domain                 |'Domain Driven Design'                                                 |
        |Windows Communication  |'Inside Windows SharePoint Services', 'Bridging the Communication Gap' |
