I have this problem where I need to make a variable accessible from different keywords
I have Tried to use set global variable
Keyword.
***Keywords***
Random Name
${Name}= Full Name
set global variable ${Name}
Keyword Name
Random Name
Log ${Name}
Keyword Name2
Random Name
Log ${Name}
*** Test Cases ***
Run Keywords
Keyword Name
Keyword Name2
Full Name Keyword
Import names
def Full_Name(self):
return (names.get_first_name())
Output
So in Keyword Name The value I am getting is John
, but in Keyword Name2 The value is Clair
. I need to keep the value as John
for all of the keywords.
When i try to use the variable without passing the Keyword into the keyword I am not able to access it all.
I also Tried to use set suite variable
but that has the Same Result.
Note: Full Name keyword is a custom library to get random names. also this is only a example code
I have found a solution. I wasn't calling the Random Name Keyword in my Test case, and also i created a empty variable in the Variable section
*** Variables ***
${Name}
***Keywords***
Random Name
${Name}= Full Name
set global variable ${Name}
Keyword Name
Log ${Name}
Keyword Name2
Log ${Name}
*** Test Cases ***
Run Keywords
Random Name
Keyword Name
Keyword Name2
Now I am getting the Desired output
