Hi,

I have an excel sheet with a lot of input cases I should check that are
rejected by a form..

I'd like to iterate over the rows in the file and repeat the test. Is it
possible to iterate over the rows somehow... Is there a way to read
files easily, at all?

I know that there are the excel steps, but aren't they a little
cumbersome for this job?

Thanks, Noam
