Assign Variables Activity Overview

Assign Variables Activity Icon

Use the Assign Variables activity to explicitly calculate and assign values to one or more variables in the
test. You can also add a calculation that uses a variable with a choice list for activities such as If-Else or
While loops.

For each variable you include in the list, you must provide a calculation to set the value of the variable.
The calculation can be a simple value, a reference to another variable, or a calculated value that can
reference other variables.

To prompt a user to provide a simple value, use the Input Variables activity. To evaluate existing
calculations, use the Calculate Variables activity.

Note:

Only variables that have the Availability property of During Test are available for use with this
activity. To set this property, open the Calculation Editor, right-click on the variable name, and select
