Overview
The SetVar function is used to define and set variables within a scenario. Variables can be classified as either global or local, each serving distinct purposes within the execution of scenarios.
SetVar(variable_name, value, global=False)
- variable_name: The name of the variable to be set.
- value: The value to assign to the variable.
- global (optional): A boolean flag indicating whether the variable should be global. Defaults to False.
Parameters
- variable_name: (Type: string) The unique identifier for the variable.
- value: (Type: any) The value to assign to the variable.
- global: (Type: boolean, Optional) Specifies whether the variable is global or local. Defaults to False.
Usage
Example 1: Setting a Local Variable
<xsl:value-of select=" ixf:SetVar('local_variable', '42')"></xsl:value-of>
This sets a local variable named "local_variable" with a value of 42. Local variables are only accessible within the current scenario.
Example 2: Setting a Global Variable
<xsl:value-of select=" ixf:SetVar('global_variable', 'hello', 'true')"></xsl:value-of>
This sets a global variable named "global_variable" with the value "hello". Global variables can be accessed from the parent scenario.
Retrieving Variable Values
To retrieve the value of a variable, use the GetVar function:
<xsl:value-of select="ixf:GetVar('variable_name')"></xsl:value-of>
variable_name: The name of the variable whose value you want to retrieve.
