To transfer the environment to the next step you can do the following:
.Propagate environment to next step
----------------------------
$MT_MEGATEST -env2file .ezsteps/${stepname}
----------------------------
Automatic environment propagation with Ezsteps
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Simply give your step name an extension of .sh or .csh. The environment variables will be propagated.
NOTE: aliases and variables with strange whitespace or characters will not propagate correctly. Put in a ticket on the http://www.kiatoa.com/fossils/megatest site if you need support for a specific strange character combination.
.Example of auto propagation
---------------------------
[ezsteps]
step1.sh export SOMEVAR=$(ps -def | wc -l);ls /tmp
# The next step will get the value of $SOMEVAR from step1.sh
step2.sh echo $SOMEVAR
---------------------------
Scripts
~~~~~~~
.Specifying scripts inline (best used for only simple scripts)
----------------------------
