Config Variables

Config variables have the effect of changing global "behavior" and are identified by starting with xp., for example: xp.url.

Anything set this way will apply to all requests, unless you over-ride them. Any other variables will be treated as normal global variables.

Name	Type	Effect
xp.url	string	Default "base URL" for all requests
xp.headers	json	Sets headers for all requests
xp.cookies	json	Sets cookies for all requests
xp.ssl	boolean / json	Set this to (true) if you have to test HTTPS and the server is strict
xp.charset	string	null by default, set it to utf-8 to add charset=UTF-8 the Content-Type header
xp.followRedirects	boolean	Set this to (false) to not follow redirects by default
xp.connectTimeout	number	Increase the connect timeout which defaults to (30000) (30 seconds)
xp.readTimeout	number	Increase the read timeout which defaults to (30000) (30 seconds)
xp.proxy	string / json	The URI of the proxy server to use

For more details, you can also refer to the corresponding configure keys for Karate as Xplorer adopts similar conventions.

Those "config settings" that expect a JSON can also be a JS function that returns a JSON, allowing for some very dynamic behavior.
