I created a method in an external script like this:


class TestUtils {
    def static externalExpand(propertyString, context, log) {

    }
}


and passed the property in a Groovy script step like this:

TestUtils.expand("\${#TestCase#test}",context, log)


and got this:

I have no single quotes around the passed property value in the external method.

Does this help?
