Update a global variable with in an it call

[Devan Shah]

Hello

Is it at all possible to use it clause to actually populate an array and then use this variable again.

describe("Rule Unit Tests", function () {

    var example;

    it("Build Global UnitTest Map", function () {

        example = "Hello"; ---> Set to Hello

    });

    

    console.log(example); ---> Want to access the changes version here

   

});

Regards

An `it` can modify global state, but it won't quite work how you have your example set up. The `function` you pass to the `it` will not be executed until Jasmine starts to run all of the specs in your suite. This means that the `console.log` will have already run (during loading of the suite), by the time the `it` has any chance to update the `example` variable.

Hope this helps. Thanks for using Jasmine!
