I have test data variable defined as ‘Text’ in both Data table and in the Environment. While running the tests, which value will be preferred by Virtuoso? Will it be Environment?

  Charanya if you hover your mouse over the variable in your test step. It will show you whether it is being leveraged from the environment or test data table. Adding one example below.

  Hi @... - Thank you for the details. I also got the below input from Virtuoso team on the hierarchy:

  Insights: In virtuoso we have a Data source hierarchy as follows.
  The order in which they are used in the context of a journey execution is as follows:
   

  1. Variables created in previous journey steps (store, execute, etc.)
  2. Data tables
  3. Initial data (advanced execution)
  4. Environment variables
     1. Own variables
     2. Parent environment (for cases where an environment inherits from another)

  Note: The higher a source is in the list, the higher its priority. 
  For example, if a variable is defined in both the environment and the initial data, the initial data value will be used.
