I was thiking of passing meaningful data into a test case class I have
class Test_Case_1
def initialize() #not sure as yet as to what to enter here
log.detail_test_case(test[:name], .....])
I dont want to hard code the data into the class, and was thinking of
passing test data during initialisation. I could then initialise the
class x number of times with different test data.

So, I can put a placeholder in this method
def initialize(x)

My aim is put put test data somewhere meaningful, but for the tests
to be easily read.
log.detail_test_case(test[:name], test[:description])
browser.goto(test[:url])
