Passing Store Text value to the next test case is not working in Selenium side runner #1802

💬 Questions and Help

I have a side test suite made up of multiple test cases. In one test case I upload a file and get the file id. I use Store Text to save the file id value into a variable. I use that variable in the next test case Here is an example: 1st test case image

2nd test case image

If I run via Selenium GUI I get the file ID ie 209 from 1st Test case and it updates test case 2 as 209. But if I run via Selenium side Runner I get the variable ${DataFileID}. I have looked through your reported issues and I can see this issue is similar https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium-ide/issues/1735 I have updated to the latest Selenium and I also ran the suggested npm i selenium-side-runner@latest, both completed successfully but my issue remains. Any suggestions?

@toddtarsi please advise on this issue?

@akashg94 - In this case, I'd recommend using the run command to run the step as a child of the other test. Variables are commonly persisted across boundaries this way. The other option is I think turning on persist session on the suite itself, but that has more side effects.

1856 : Persist sesssion doesn't work ...

Do you have a sample with the command "run" ? I don't see how to use it ... thanks
