Can we define Env variable outside of the .tst file?

in SOAtest

is there a way to define environment variables at project level instead of defining it at .tst?

    You can define other types of variables outside of a tst. For example, you can reference OS or shell variables using ${env_var:name_of_variable}.

    You can also export an environment or set of environments to be used as reference environments. For more information on this, our documentation details this here.

    Thank you Thomas. Referencing environment works but is there a way to just place the environment variable file only once outside at project level (like adding global data source) and use that in different .tst files?

    You need to reference the environment file in each .tst file that needs to use it.
