System Environment Variable Not Found

Question

I'm using MacOS and I have defined a few environment variables inside .bash_profile file. I'm running the Scalatest Framework inside IntelliJ IDEA, and I have defined my test class file:

class ApiCheckerTest extends FunSuite {
    val userid: String = sys.env(Constants.KEY_CLOUD_USERNAME)   //Value of parameter is CLOUD_USERNAME
    val password: String = sys.env(Constants.KEY_CLOUD_PASSWORD)
    val url: String = sys.env(Constants.KEY_CLOUD_DB2_URL)

    test("ApiChecker.getAuthToken.noUserPasswordUrl") {
        val apiChecker = new ApiChecker()
        assert(apiChecker.getAuthToken("", "", "").isEmpty)
    }

    //... <Other test cases>
}

When I run this Test class file, I get an error shown below:

An exception or error caused a run to abort: key not found: CLOUD_USERNAME 
java.util.NoSuchElementException: key not found: CLOUD_USERNAME

Now when I open scala terminal and run sys.env() there, I get an output:

scala> sys.env("CLOUD_USERNAME")
res0: String = sparker0i

If this can work inside Scala terminal, why does this not work in the Test class in IntelliJ?

Answer 1

I created these environment variables after I opened IntelliJ IDEA. Restarting the IDE fixed the problems
