List variables hold multiple values.
- In this video, I'm going to talk about list variables.…List variables are used for holding multiples values.…And this could be useful if you had a username…and password that you would want to pass together…with one variable instead of passing two variables,…or something like a series of coordinates…that was needed for a particular task case.…You could put all the coordinates in one bucket…and pass them into the keyword.…You'll notice that the syntax is very similar…to the scalar variables.…The only difference is, we're using an at sign…instead of a dollar sign.…You can see that we still have two approaches,…the first one is what we use in the variables section…of the script file or keyword file,…and the second one can be used directly inside…of a test case or keyword.…
Since there are multiple values inside the variable,…the syntax for retrieving data is different…from a scalar variable.…You can see that I'm still using Log,…again I've changed the dollar sign to at,…and at the end here I've used square brackets…
