manuallyentertestdata.robot

### First we have pure Robot Framework implementation:

## manualtestdata.robot

Library    Dialogs

*** Keywords ***

    [Arguments]    ${prompt}
    ${val}=    Get value from user    ${prompt}
    Set test variable    ${TEST DATA}    ${val}
    
### test that uses it
## suite1_resource.robot

*** Settings ***
Resource    manualtestdata.robot

*** Test cases ***

TC1
    [Setup]    Manually enter test data    Please enter name
    Log    ${TEST DATA}


TC2

    Log    ${TEST DATA}

TC3

### Second, we have Python implementaion of the same
## ManualTestDataLibrary.py

from robot.libraries import Dialogs
from robot.libraries.BuiltIn import BuiltIn

class ManualTestDataLibrary(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.builtin = BuiltIn()

    def manually_enter_test_data(self, prompt):
        val = Dialogs.get_value_from_user(prompt)
        self.builtin.set_test_variable('${TEST DATA}', val)

### and a test file for it
## suite2_library.robot

*** Settings ***
Library    ManualTestDataLibrary

*** Test cases ***
