Adding environment variables

Edit online

About this task

Define environment settings for tests by configuring necessary parameters in the environment configuration file. Use environment variables to store values such as authentication credentials, API keys, and configuration details. Test cases can reference these variables dynamically.

Procedure

  1. From the quick access page, click Add an environment.
    The Add environment page appears.
  2. Provide the environment details.
    1. Environment name. Enter a name for the environment variable.
    2. Namespace. Specify the namespace for the environment variable.
    3. Version number. Provide the version number of the environment variable.
    4. Tags. Add relevant tags for identification.
    5. Click Create.
    The environment file is created and displayed.
  3. Add the environment variables.
    • Variable. Enter the variable name.
    • Secret. Toggle the Secret button to display the value in plain text or encode it.
    • Value. Provide the corresponding value.
    After you provide the variable details, the environment configuration updates and makes the specified variables available for test cases. Test cases dynamically substitute these values during execution. If you mark a variable as Secret, the system encrypts its value and hides it from direct view.
