Extract values from coded step/code behind

[Austin]

I want to set a databind variable through the coded step so that it can be repurposed and used in the test case front end.  I've tried the following:

SetExtractedValue("extractedVarName", localVar.ToString());

and tried calling the extractedVarName in a recorded Verify step however it doesn't seem to be valid and fails.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you.

Hi Austin,

I managed to create sample scenario using the latest version of the product (2018.1.130). Please, note that you have to type explicitly the name of the extracted in coded steps variable when using it in a verification step. I attached a screenshot for a reference.
The code in the codes step is the following:

string localVar = "OPA!!!";
this.SetExtractedValue("extractedVarName", localVar.ToString());

I hope this information is helpful.

Best Regards,

Hi Nikolay:

Thank you for getting back to me.

I will try this out, thanks for also identifying that I have to manually type out the binding name that was called and that it would not be available in a dropdown.
