Add Variable in Base xPath?

[ThomasMateo]

Based on the input (Missouri, Iowa, California) i have to modify the Base xPath in Ranorex repository.
If Missouri, it should be test.mo.google.com
if Iowa, it should be test.ia.google.com
if California it should be test.ca.google.com

/dom[@domain~'test+$domainURL+.google.com']

I have created a variable called domainURL and thru data binding passed a value for domainURL but it is not working.

Hi,

The xpath with variable must look like this:

/dom[@domain='test.'+$domainURL+'.google.com']

I personally don't like the idea to have variables in DOM, because it means I have to bind every single recording using repo elements So in situation like yours, I prefer to 'hardcode' the variable strings, like this:

/dom[@domain~'test.(mo|ia|ca).google.com']
