Global Value in Behave

A Variable which can be accessed throughout the program in the same file is known as Global value.

In Behave we can achieve this by using context attribute.

After passing the value as a parameter,Now we need to create a variable along with the term “context” attribute and append the parameter name to it.

context.eid = emailid

Now, The name “context.eid” can be used across the program as required.
