How do I pass variables to a function within a test block in Playwright's test framework?

Answer

Passing Variables to a Function in Playwright's Test Framework

In Playwright's test framework, you can pass variables to a function within a test block. Here's how you can do it:

First, import the test module from '@playwright/test'.

import { test } from '@playwright/test';

Next, define your test suite using test.describe. This groups related tests together under a common suite name. Inside the suite, define your individual tests using the test function.

test.describe('suite', () => {
  test('test should work', async ({ page }) => {
    // Your code here
  });
});

Now, let's say you have a function that expects 'suit' and 'result'. You can call this function within your test block and pass in those values as arguments.

import { test } from '@playwright/test';

function myFunction(suit: string, result: string) {
  // Your code here
}

test.describe('suite', () => {
  test('test should work', async ({ page }) => {
    const suit = "mySuit";
    const result = "myResult";

    myFunction(suit, result);
  });
});

In this example, myFunction is called within your test block, and 'suit' and 'result' are passed to that function. Remember to replace "mySuit" and "myResult" with the actual values you want to send.
