Reuse Assertions across different tests

[tony-clarke-amdocs]

It would be nice if we could re use the same assertions that are common across different test cases (it). Assume there are 10 assertions a1 to a10 for it1. For it2 there is the same assertions a1 to a10 plus a11. Today, we need to repeat a1 to a10 twice.

Sounds good if we can have something like

assertionTemplate:
  - name: myAsserts
    template: |
      equal:
        path: some.path.{{ .prop }}
        value: {{ .val }}
     ...

and use it like

...
  asserts:
    withTemplate:
      name: myAsserts
      args:
        prop: ...
        val: ...

so the logic can be easily reuse.

Oh and you can alway use yaml reference within the same file:

- it: test1
  asserts: &myAssert
    - some assertions...
    - ...
- it: test2
  asserts: *myAssert

Close due to archiving repository.

Sorry for not presenting so long. I've been working on another project and don't have time to for helm-unittest.
Please consider other working forks like quintush/helm-unittest.

Can we re-open this @quintush, I haven't seen this feature implemented yet, and it seems that you're actively maintaining and is a collaborator for this repo.
