My data provider is something like this :
@DataProvider(name = "valid_parameters")
public Object[][] sendValidParamters() throws Exception {
return new Object[][] {
{ getDetailsFromDB("getFromDB", true, "images/backgrnd.jpeg")},
getDetailsFromDB("getFromDB", true, "images/backgrnd.jpeg")}};
In which, I'm trying to fetch some rows from table based on parameters.
