    Building on sanj's reply, depending on how you need to access the property there may be a few considerations you need to make.

     

    • If you need a property available across all test steps in a test case, store it at that test case level.
      • def testCaseProperty = testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue("myTest", "blah")
      • (as provided by sanj)
    • If you need a property available across all test cases in a test suite, store it at the test suite level.
      • def testSuiteProperty = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.setPropertyValue("myTest", "blah")
    • If you need a property available across all test suites in a project, store it at the project level.
      • def projectProperty = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.setPropertyValue("myTest", "blah")

    It appears that the same question happened to be answered in stackoverflow:

    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45840933/how-to-create-a-property-using-groovy-script

    Here is the appeal to the author. Please be patient while posting the questions with sample reproducible data, context and clear details so that external people can understand what exact the issue being faced. The time spent explain this not only helps you, but also to the people who willing to help others. Better the question, better the answer.

    Not sure where you searched online for the same, please refer below link which has more frequently used code snippets and I believe that is helpful to get started.
