Json/Yaml schema for the Yaml test cases?

[picimako]

Hi,

I've started looking into how the Yaml DSL is implemented, and how Citrus Yaml test resources are loaded and parsed, so that I could create Json/Yaml schema for it.

I have the following questions:

• Do you have any schema for the Yaml DSL so far? (I looked but haven't found anything.)
• Based on the Citrus code base this is what I see, and I'd like to know if this is correct:
  • org.citrusframework.yaml.YamlTestLoader#doLoad parses a Yaml file and loads it into a YamlTestCase, so that YamlTestCase is essentially the top-level model object for the yaml TC configuration.
  • From this point downward in the hierarchy, e.g. org.citrusframework.TestCaseMetaInfo.Status, org.citrusframework.yaml.YamlTestCase.Variable, ˛org.citrusframework.yaml.TestActions and others act as further yaml TC model objects.
• How does YamlTemplateLoader and org.citrusframework.yaml.container.Template fit into this picture? What are their purposes?

Meanwhile I managed to figure out that the yaml related Java classes are indeed what I have found previosly.

I also see now that YamlTemplateLoader is for loading templates from yaml files. I was not aware of Citrus's template feature before.
