Variables

Variables

On this page you create variables that will be used by automation. Variable values can be accessed either by Action Collections or by scripted code and values for it can be specified either inside Execution or the Variables page itself.

For a Script to retrieve variable value it has to do this:
redwood.launcher.Launcher.variables.<Variable Name>

Example

class TestCode{
  public void run(HashMap<String, Object> params){
    String getBrowserVariableValue = redwood.launcher.Launcher.variables.Browser;
  }
}
