Result

In the event that a TA property and a native property have identical names, the TA property takes precedence. If you want to get the value of the native property instead, use the action get native property.
variable argument:
- If the variable in argument variable has not been declared, the action creates it as a global.
- If the variable argument is left empty, TestArchitect supplies a global variable with the name _result.
This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string <ignore> is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to <ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
