test specific variables

[amlwwalker]

I am aware I can set variables at the top of the yaml config file however is it possible to set a variable within a specific test that can then be used in that test?

For instance:

testcases:
  - name: testing against type1 of request
    steps:
      - type: exec
        script: ./script.sh -n test1 -d ./test1 -s "{{.SHARED_DIR}}" -c test1/upshot.yaml -o test1/out -r test1/requests.csv
        info:  ./script.sh -n test1 -d ./test1 -s "{{.SHARED_DIR}}" -c test1/upshot.yaml -o test1/out -r test1/requests.csv
        assertions:
          - result.systemout ShouldContainSubstring test1
          - result.systemout ShouldContainSubstring test1---pass

in this case - I would like to have testt1 as a variable so I can change its name in one location - however I want it scoped to this test. Is that possible?

Hi @amlwwalker , I'm not sure to well understand the use case, can you provides us a full example please? Is it to use this variable in a user executor ?
