    Hello,

    Keyword test variables do not store values between test runs. They reset their value to defaul value upon each new run.

    To store values between test runs, use persistent project variables or persistent project suite variables. See Project And Project Suite Variables - Overview

    Thus the actions should be:

    1. Add a project variable in the Persistent Variables section of the Variables page of Project Editor.

    Name: TestRunsCounter; Type: Integer; Default Value: 100

    2. In Keyword Test insert a Set Variable Value operation.

    Mode:  Code Expression; Value: Project.Variables.TestRunsCounter+1

    3. In Keyword Test, pass that variable to your control's text field:

    aTextField.SetText(IntToStr(Project.Variables.TestRunsCounter))
