Is this the same issue as https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-Questions/Test-execution-fails-after-I-modified-variable-of-a-ClickButton/td-p/251645 ?

 

You need to use the eval() function to evaluate the JavaScript code represented as a string

 

In your CSV file, how have you defined the actual button name?

 

You have defined the following,

which doesn't match with the code you have written

and your comment "# Get the CSV file path from the 'test_variable' keyword test variable" doesn't match which what you are trying to do - which is confusing

No this is different issue. 

In the issue from link I wasn't able to click a button. That issue I figured out.

But I was using hard coded path to csv file, now I want to replace hard coded value to a local variable, which is:

csv_path = KeywordTests.CurrentTestItems.Variables['test_variable']

 

After I replaced I got the error. 

For me it looks like it doesn't recognize 'KeywordTests.CurrentTestItems.Variables['test_variable']' as a keyword test variable, but I can be wrong. 

 

As I mentioned above on screenshot I use a parameter for my script routine, maybe I did mistake there. 

This is my first time I'm trying parametrize script routine.
