for keyword tests, to every test you need, you can add a variable, whose
default value will specify the test name. You can do this on the
Variables page of the Keyword Test editor."
I had looked at this, but to access a variable you need to use the name of the Keyword Test, which is what I want to get in the first place: KeywordTests.Test_Name.Variables.Variable_Name
By the way, with regards to the long horrible description I gave, I found a drop-in replacement utility that runs on 64bit Windows, so I no longer need the Manual Checkpoint to pause while a script is run in a 32bit virtual machine. This allows me to do it all with a single call to a script that takes the current test name as a single parameter. Not too bad, now. The remaining advantage of being able to access the test name from somewhere is that I could (more) easily copy/paste such calls from test to test.
