Question

In the jbehave 3 examples I can see parameters as “double”, so I tried to use other types besides string, but when I try to add a boolean parameter like this

public void theUserShouldBeRedirectedToHomePage(@Named("should?") boolean should)

I get an argument type error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch

    at org.jbehave.scenario.ScenarioRunner$FineSoFar.run(ScenarioRunner.java:112)

(also, I’m using version 2.3, not 3 of jbehave)

Is it a problem with my jbehave version? which is the right way to use a boolean parameter?

Answer 1

I try this too. There is no default ParameterConverter for boolean/Boolean. You can easily add one.
