How can I initialize parameters for my keyword test before running the Keyword test.

I have a login page that has three fields ('username', 'password','company' ). 'Company' can have two values ( X or Y). 

For the company field, I created a parameter and want to assign the value X or Y

My requirement is to schedule a job to run my automatic test and have the ability to specify which values I should set for the company filed ( 'X' or 'Y' )

You can

1) Use an input box to enter the value every time you run the test

2) Use a variable for the value and edit the variable before you run the test

3) Generate a random number and have your test run one way or the other depending on the random number

4) Have your test read the value from a spreadsheet or a text file and edit the value before you run the test.
