May 23, 2022 Release Notes (Additional built-in variables, mobile retests without new build, global parameter for runs)

Last week, we added to our built-in variables, simplified retests for mobile suites via API and globalized parameters created in the before hook.

Built-in variables

• We added several new built-in variables. They can be called as follows:
• testSuiteParentFolder
• testSuitePath
• testSuiteName
• testCaseName
• testCaseExecutionLink
• currentUrl
• See other variables with examples at https://testrigor.com/docs/language/#vars. 

Mobile

• We added the ability to retest mobile suites via API without supplying the file_url parameter. The rest of the script remains the same; only the file_url parameter is omitted.

Hooks

• Parameters or variables that are set in the before hook are now also accessible in the test cases of the suite and the after hook.
