Katalon: When is a GlobalVariable reset?


When using Katalon and changing the values of a GlobalVariable during, before or after a test case or test suite, when exactly does the changes reset to the defined value in the profile?


Solution

  • The value of the GlobalVariables is reset to default on the teardown of the test suite (or the teardown of a test case when a single test case is run).

    For example, if you have GlobalVariable.x=1 set in the Global Variables and you have GlobalVariable.x=2 line in your test case, after the test case ends, x is reset to 1.
