Global Variables

Global variables provide an efficient approach to simplify the test maintenance. By creating multiple "Environments" you can manage distinct global variables,These variables are accessible across all Test Scripts within the project. They are especially valuable for reusing a value across multiple tests and generating synthetic data when necessary.

Creating Global Variables

1. Navigate to a previously created project.

2. Click on 'Project Setup'.

3. Access the 'Global Variable' section from the left panel.

   

   Create Global variable 2
4. Click on 'New Variable' in the upper-right corner.

5. Fill out the required information in the form: variable name, variable type (custom, integer, decimal, etc.), and variable value.

6. Save your entries by clicking the save button.

   

   Create Global variable 3

Viewing Global Variables

(Note: Script must be created first)

1. Navigate to an area where Test Scripts can be created (Test Repository, Sprints, or Test Lab).

2. Enter a previously created Test Script. On the right side, you'll find a blue panel. Click on the right arrow to reveal the 'Global Variable' tab.

3. Access 'Global Variable', select the desired environment from the 'Select Environment' dropdown, and choose the desired 'Environment' from the list.

4. This will display all the global variables created for selected 'Environment'.

   

   View Global variable 1

Using Global Variables

1. Visit an area where Test Scripts can be created (Test Repository, Sprints, or Test Lab).

2. Access a previously created Test Script. If a script hasn't been created yet, consult the Creating Scripts documentation.

3. Click 'Add Step' and begin crafting the steps. This is where global variables come into play. Remember to enclose the variable name with a '#' sign before and after it. Example: #Google_Website# and #Search_Query#.

4. After setting up all the steps, save your work in the upper-right corner.

   

   Use Global variable 2

Editing and Deleting Global Variables

2. Click on 'Project Setup'.

3. On the far-right side of the global variable table, icons for editing and deleting are present. Click on these icons to perform the desired action.

   

   Edit Global variable 2

   Searching the Global Variables

   We have a Search functionality available for the purpose of quick search of a Variable.

   

   Search Global Variable

Type of Variables and their usage:

1. Custom: Define data as per your requirements.

2. UUID/GUID: Generates a universally unique identifier or globally unique identifier and assigns a random value during execution.

3. FirstName: Generates random first names.

4. LastName: Generates random last names.

5. Email: The email can be entered or a random one generated. The format for a random email is ???????##@gmail.com, where '?' represents a random letter and '#' a random number.

6. Integer: Provide the minimum and maximum values so that the number generated is within that range.

7. Decimal: For decimal type, provide the decimal point number so that the number generated will have decimal numbers up-to the number provided.

8. Date: Generates random dates.

9. BaseURL: Define URLs which are commonly used for testing.

10. PastDate: Generates random past date by specifying minimum year value and date format.

11. FutureDate: Generates random future date by specifying maximum year value and date format.

12. File: Can upload the commonly used file which can be used across the project

13. Password: Variable used to keep the commonly used password across the websites

Date:

Specify the desired date and time format for generation. The default date format is dd-MM-yyyy. Please note: (MM - months, mm - minutes). For instance, if you provide the format yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss, the generated date could be something like 2020/01/16 03:25:12.

Formats	Examples
dd-MM-yyyy / MM-dd-yyyy	25-06-2020 / 06-25-2020
dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss	25-06-2020 06:07:59
dd MMMM yyyy	06 July 2020

PASTDATE:

Generate random past date by specifying the minimum year value and date format.

FUTUREDATE

Generate random future date by specifying the maximum year value and date format. Modify Date Field

The "Modify Date" field is employed to adjust the current date generated based on the specified format. For instance, if the entered format is dd-MM-yyyy, the previous approach allowed generating the current date as per the format. However, with the "Modify Date" field, you can make modifications by increasing the number of months, days, or years.

Format for Input: -/+ (date)/ -/+ (month)/ -/+ (year)

Example:

• Date Format: dd-MM-yyyy

• Modify Date: +1/+10/-1

Explanation: The value in the "Modify Date" field will be applied to the current date generated, picking values from right to left (year first), and sequentially modifying the generated date.

Therefore, the final date sequence would be:

1. Subtracts one year from the generated date.

2. Adds 10 months to the generated date from the previous step (after subtracting one year).

3. Adds 1 day to the generated date from the previous step (after subtracting one year and adding 10 months).

Priority is given to year, followed by months, and then days.

Example:

• Format: dd-MM-yyyy

• Date Generated: 08/09/1997

• Modify Date: +1/+2/-2

• Final Date Value Generated: 09/11/1995

In scenarios where the generated value is one less than the next month/year value, modifying to increase days/months can cascade to affect the rest of the date. For instance, if the generated date is 09/12/2021 and you add +1 to months, the year changes to the next year (09/01/2022). Similar logic applies to date modification, such as 31/12/2021 changing to 01/01/2022 with +1 added to the day.

If you don't want to modify any value, you can leave the field blank. If you want to modify only one date component, you can provide the rest of the fields with '0'. For example, 0/+1/0 for only the month or -10/0/+1 for only the year and day.
