How to use a property set in a subprocess across all the test cases

[Saberesh]

Hi All,

I have a scenario where I get a user token from a subprocess step which needs to be passed in the header of all the api calls. 

 

Instead of calling the subprocess and getting back the token in each and every test case, Is it possible to set the user token property at project level from the subproccess, so that it can be used by all the test cases by passing the lisa property {{token}} in the headers of the requests which is set from the subprocess.#

 

Thanks,

Since you indicate multiple test cases need to use the same token, you might consider using the Persistent Model Map.

If the test cases are part of a test suite, you might add a pre- test case that initializes the token prior to executing the test cases, have each test case use the token, and execute a post- test case to remove the token.

If the test cases execute outside a test suite, you might check the map, if the token exists use it. If the token does not exist, call the subroutine to create, store it in the map, and use it.

 Whatever you do, consider a design that provides the ability to clean up the map between executions.
