EnvironmentVariable with silkCentral

[Anas1]

Hi All,

Can we define an EnvironmentVariable with silkCentral then get this variable with the comand

Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("myParam") within silkTest Workbench.

thank you in advance.

Hi,

In Silk Central 16.0 you have to create an Input Parameter for the .NET script having the same name as the parameter in Silk Central:

Configure the parameter in Silk Central:

In the Workbench specify an input paramter for the script and get the passed value like shown in the sample below:

    Public Sub Main(args As IDictionary(Of String, Object))

          With _desktop.Window("Untitled - Notepad")

                 .TextField("TextField").TypeKeys(args("myParam"))

          End With

    End Sub

Using environment variables might be implemented in SC 16.5.

Best Regards,

Sebastian

Thank you for your response. I have already tested input parameters in SCTM but it doesn't meet my needs. In fact I don't want to manage those parameters in each script  it's why I think that environment variables  offers more flexibility.
