For the most part, Global Variables are meant to be static and shouldn’t be changed from within a script. That being said, you should be able to do it with this syntax:

GlobalVariable.var1 = 'new value'

This assumes that you have defined a global variable “var1” for the currently-selected profile. A couple of notes:

1.) This new value will not persist once the Test Suite completes. It will be reset to whatever value you had in the profile setting.
2.) If you are simply trying to pass values between test cases in a suite, there are better ways to do that. Check my post here:

How to pass variables between test cases in a suite (the "right" way...)

Hey all, I would just like to share a super simple approach to passing variables between test cases in a suite, as I’ve seen many topics over the years with questions on how to do this efficiently. To be clear, there are already several approaches to this, including, but not limited to: 1.) Creating “empty” GlobalVariables in a Profile, assigning values to those variables at runtime, then consuming them as a global variable in later scripts. This approach works fine, but in my opinion is non…

Hope this helps
