How to Use Global Variables in Test Cases

Overview

This guide explains how to create and use Global Variables in test cases.

By leveraging Global Variables, you can pass variable values as inputs to test functions, making test automation more flexible, reusable, and maintainable.

Prerequisites

• Access to TestGrid Portal & Codeless Automation.

Steps

Step 1: Create a Global Variable

Navigate to Codeless

Select your project 

Click on the Version number

Select Global Variables

Select Add variablle

Select Type - Integer, Double or String

Variable Name - Enter the name of the variable

Variable Value - Value that you want the variable to hold

After filling these out click on Add Variable

Step 2: Select the variable in the test case or test function

Reference the saved Global Variable wherever dynamic input is required.

The stored value will be substituted automatically during execution.

Best Practices

✔ Use meaningful variable names that clearly identify the stored data

✔ Reuse variables across multiple test cases and test functions where applicable.

Global Variables can be used to store data from and pass those values in test functions or test case. This enables scalable, reusable, and data-driven test automation within TestGrid.
