Passing Variables Between Testcases

[gventura]

Hello,

I was wondering if someone can tell me how to pass a variable that is gotten in one testcase and use it in another testcase.
For example,
In testcase 1 we get a value from a post command and assign it to a variable. So value = xyz

I then want to take the variable called value and use the content of value in testcase 2.
value2 = value

Thank you

If you are passing variables from one Test Case to another Test Case outside of a Test Suite, then you need to Save those variables to a spreadsheet or data file. There are examples of this on this forum, such as:

I explained how you can do this in your other question on this topic. Start there. However, you need to move off the Manual tab onto the Script tab or you can “translate” what I put down from that question into the Manual tab. If this doesn’t fulfill your need, then we can give more information. Edit: To make it even easier, I brought what I wrote there over to this question:

Maybe like this:

Or use WebUI.callTestCase() to return a value from a test case to another test case.
