Differentiation of variables

There are multiple types of variables in Agilitest:

• $param, parameters passed to a subscript

‍

• $var, script’s variables

‍

• $prj, project’s variables

‍

• $env, execution’s variables d’exécution (defined for each playlist or in a command line)

‍

• $prop, property’s variables in a “properties” type data file

‍

‍

• $pass, encrypted passwords types of variables

‍

‍

Among these variables, there are subtypes of variables with a default value:

• $param,

Example: $param(0,data) if parameter 0 does not exist, the character string “data” will be used instead

• $env,

Example: $env(name,data) if the environment variable is not set, then the character string “data” will be used

‍

Other subtypes of variables are nested variables:

• $pass,

Examples: $pass($var(passname)) ; $pass($env(passname)) ; $pass($var(prefix)$env(passname)$param(0))

• $prop,

Examples: $prop(prop1,$var(key)) ; $prop($var(file),key1) ; $prop($var(file),$var(key)) ; $prop($env(lang)-$var(file),$var(key))

‍

For nested variables, their values can be retrieved from the concatenation of other variables.

Example: To retrieve the value of the “key1” key in the “fr-label” file, you will need to have $env(lang)=fr et le $var(file)=label et $var(key)=key1

‍

Example: To recover a password named “pass1”, you will need to have $var(passname)=pass1 ou $env(passname)=pass1
