Use variables in a distributed test environemt

Hi,

 

we are using TestExecute to run distributed tests on multiple hosts. Therefor we created a project suite and added a master and a slave project. The master project ha a single network suite and all tests are defined in the slave project.

 

As we run the master project from our build environment we need to provide some values via command line parameters for TestExecute. These command line parameters are evaluated in the master project and stored in variables of the project suite. To test this approach I just added a script to the slave project that just logs the values of the variable. Unfortunately all variables are unassigned although the parsing function works fine.

 

What's the correct way to pass variables to the slave project?

 

Regards

      That does not work either because the master and the slave project does not share a network suite. While the variables are available in the master project they are not available in the slave project. I'm looking fo a shared variable store.
