Meta Tags

[janschaefer]

As a developer,
I want to be able to organize my tags hierarchically,
so that I get a better overview over my tags.

Idea:
Allow tags to be tagged by meta-tags. These meta-tags should also appear in the report and should allow for a hierarchical structuring of the tags in the report.

Example:
In order to hierarchically structure features under the meta-tag @Feature. We define an annotation @Feature:

@IsTag
@Retention( RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME )
public @interface Feature { }

Then we annotated feature tags with that tag:

@Feature 
@IsTag( type = "Feature", value = "Data Tables",
    description = "In order to get a better overview over the different cases of a scenario<br>"
            + "As a human,</br>"
            + "I want to have different cases represented as a data table" )
@Retention( RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME )
public @interface FeatureDataTables { }

The resulting report should then show something like this:

Feature
 - Data Tables
 - ...

It should also be collapsible

In order to implement this, it might be that JGiven must generate a separate JSON file for all tags.

While working on this enhancement, can the meta data be extended to also support customized CSS/HTML elements for the tags?

For example, we have added two tag definitions @Story and @Bug to annotated test scenarios. The tags are properly generated and we can navigate through them. However, it would be very nice to have a another annotation attribute to accept a custom CSS class for the tag that comes from custom.css. For example:

public @interface IsTag {
    String cssClassName() default ""; // Or the default can come from Foundation
}

Great idea! I created a pull request to track that feature: #69

I close this issue as a duplicate of #90
