问题
I need to set an variable in testSuite#1. Use the above variable in testSuite#2.
Do we have any keywords to do it? Can we export it at command line?
回答1:
Use BuiltIn's Set Global Variable. This should be avoided whenever possible, but is sometimes necessary.
Set Global Variable ${MYPROJ_ADMIN_PASSWORD} supersecret123

This is not a very good idea, because you end up with a dependency between two suites, and a dependency on the order that the suites are run.
That being said, there are a couple of ways you can accomplish this.
Using Set Global Variable
The first method is to use the Set Global Variable keyword from the built-in library.
| | Set global variable | ${foobar} | this is foobar
Setting an environment varible
The second way would be to set an environment variable that can be shared between two suites, using the OperatingSystem library.
suite1.robot
*** Settings ***
| Library | Operating System
*** Test Case ***
| Save a variable that other suites can see
| | Set environment variable | foobar | this is foobar
suite2.robot
*** Settings ***
| Library | OperatingSystem
*** Test Cases ***
| Use a variable from another suite
| | Should be equal | %{foobar} | this is foobar
Notice the use of % instead of $ to access the variable. You can also use Get Environment Variable to get the value of one or more variables.
