TestOptimal supports user defined variables. Each variable is given a name and the name must not be the same as any of the system var.

User variables are created automatically by using it. For example the following mScript will create the variable if it does not exist yet and set its value:

  <action code="$setVar('myVar', 'xyz')"/>

You can retrieve the value for a variable with “$getVar()” method:

  <log msg="myVar is: $getVar('myVar')."/>

User variables can be retrieved using a token syntax as well:

  <log msg="myVar is: [myVar]."/>

Please be aware that there is a little bit overhead in using the token syntax.
