Data Mapper

DataMapper object helps to read and write Json or yaml/yml files with @DataFile annotation.

Resolution Algorithm

DataMapper looks for matching data files in test resource folder by converting POJO class name to a SnakeCase json or yaml/yml file.

• For POJO class TestUsers.java
• Matching test data files are test_users.json or test_users.yml or test_users.yaml

@DataFile annotation also takes additional attributes as follows

• fileName : Specify custom data file like 'mydata.json'
• filePath : path where data file is located. 'src/main/resources'
• rootFolder : root directory
