Problem Statement

When running a Chainsaw test with multiple scenarios, it is currently difficult to tell which Scenario (and its associated bindings) is being executed at a given time. This makes debugging harder, since the logs and output only show the test name and step name, but not which Scenario is in progress.

Solution Description

The scenarios list could support a name property:

  scenarios:
    - name: scenario-name1
      bindings:
        - name: version
          value: 2
    - name: scenario-name2
      bindings:
        - name: version
          value: 3

(Unfortunately, Chainsaw also does not support variable substitution in step name fields that could be a workaround to display the scenario in that field.)

It would be useful to allow optional naming of scenarios and display that scenario name (or index if unnamed) in the execution output, e.g.:

| 14:04:33 | test-name             | scenario-name1   | step-name1  | TRY    | BEGIN |

[...]

| 14:05:10 | test-name             | scenario-name2   | step-name1  | TRY    | BEGIN |
