This is the list of variables added for filters. Variables are markers in the text that are replaced by another value when a filter, notifier or service is used. The variable name should not contain any spaces, and should be enclosed by braces, e.g. {TestName}. They are used by the Script and other plug-ins, and will be available for relevant future plug-ins too.
