I think this is more an ant issue. You may define a target in this way:

<target name="_InsertApple">
 <testSpec name="insert apple">
  <config host="${target}.quinary.it" port="${port}" protocol="http"
basepath="" summary="false" verbose="true" saveresponse="false"
haltonfailure="true" showhtmlparseroutput="true" />
  <steps>
   <invoke stepid="get main page" url="/seller/Home" />
   <clicklink stepid="clic on apple creation link" label="Create new apple"
/>
   <setinputfield stepid="set name" name="appleName" value="${apple.name}" />

   <setinputfield stepid="set weight" name="appleWeight"
value="${apple.weight}" />
   <clickbutton stepid="submit" label="Ok" />
  </steps>
 </testSpec>
</target>

Now you can invoke _InsertApple as many times you want, with different
parameters, using antcall :

<antcall target="_InsertApple">
  <param name="apple.name" value="appie" />
  <param name="apple.weight" value="3" />
</antcall>
