how to get the rowcount of excel sheet from verifyExcel function(console.log("rowcount:"+rowObject1)) to top function.

Answer 1

You can pass that variable as argument of top function, example:

 const f1 = (arg) => { console.log(arg); } const f2 = () => { let rowcount = "test"; f1(rowcount); } f2(); f1();

Answer 2

declare a variable with var or let on top of your describe block and simply use in any of it blocks under the spec.

eg- please refer the sample-

import { browser } from 'protractor';

var yourVariable

describe('Info API: ', function () {

    browser.ignoreSynchronization = true; // for non-angular websites

    it('This is test ', function (done) {

        your code;//use ur variable here
     });

    it('This is test1 ', function (done) {

        your code;//use ur variable here
    });

});
