= Description =
Our test variables are quite long, and mostly there are not conflicts
between them during a test run. Using the full test name as a prefix
makes the variable names long, and harder to maintain.
|
|
However, having the variable names be unique per test means that it's
easier to identify them among all the global environment variables of
a Fuego run. (TVAR does this for the variables that come from a spec file.)

= Notes =
Note that this might not be true for test variables placed in a board file.
or used as a dynamic variable.
|
|
There's already a precedent for variables that are used in one test, but
are used with no prefix, and might show up in a global context, and that
is dynamic variables like PROGRAM_DBENCH.
