Hello ,
The log says : [ ERROR ] Suite 'API' contains no tests matching name 'Send GET on API ${endpoint} on ${env} for ${tenant} should be 200'.
But in my scenario i specified that the name of the test case is :
Send GET on API "${endpoint}" on "${env}" for "${tenant}" should be 200
with quotation marks

OK found the issue, looks like I need to escape the double quotes as well

$ robot -t "Send GET on API "\${endpoint}" on "\${env}" for "\${tenant}" should be 200"  "Anker01_variables.robot"
[ ERROR ] Suite 'Anker01 variables' contains no tests matching name 'Send GET on API ${endpoint} on ${env} for ${tenant} should be 200'.

Try --help for usage information.

vs

$ robot -t "Send GET on API \"\${endpoint}\" on \"\${env}\" for \"\${tenant}\" should be 200"  "Anker01_variables.robot"
==============================================================================
Anker01 variables                                                             
==============================================================================
Send GET on API "my endpoint" on "QAENV" for "Anker02" should be 200  | PASS |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Confirmed the Double Quotes also need to be escaped on Window, but as I expected the ${ shouldn't be escaped on Windows
