I have a Selenium test where I am filling in a web form. The test works but as part of the test validation I currently call a method to return a string multiple times.

//Variables stored in appsettings.json file
string ServiceName = _configuration[Configuration.EnvConfig + ":NewService"];
string VendorName = _configuration[Configuration.EnvConfig + ":NewVendor"];
string RelationshipManager = _configuration[Configuration.EnvConfig + ":RelationshipManager"];

// Date is stored in configuration class so that it can be passed to other class files for validation
private static string thisDay = Configuration.currentDate.ToString();

        public string NewVendorName()
        {
            string NewVendorName = thisDay + VendorName;
            return NewVendorName;
        }

        public string NewServiceName()
        {
            string NewServiceName = thisDay + ServiceName;
            return NewServiceName;
        }

I use these two methods in the majority of my tests and am calling them in multiple methods within those tests as part of my validation.

I’ve tried using a get set but have not been able to get that to work because of the non-null values.

I also tried setting the strings coming from appsettings.json to ‘private static’ but get an error at runtime.

        //Variables stored in appsettings.json file
    private static string ServiceName = _configuration[Configuration.EnvConfig + ":NewService"];
    private static string VendorName = _configuration[Configuration.EnvConfig + ":NewVendor"];
    private static string RelationshipManager = _configuration[Configuration.EnvConfig + ":RelationshipManager"];

    // Date is stored in configuration class so that it can be passed to other class files for validation
    private static string thisDay = Configuration.currentDate.ToString();
    string NewVendorName = thisDay + VendorName;
    string NewServiceName = thisDay + ServiceName;

I am looking for insight on the best way to implement this without having to call the same two methods over and over but am at a loss.
