Answer 1

Make sure your var test is not inside a function and that your file is load in the correct order. In your first file use something like

// Now here include your js file too JS file 
// Or set in window scope like window.test="myVar";

And in your JS file use like

$(function() {
  alert(test);
  // alert(window.test);
});

A variable in global scope can be access from all javascript file. Your first js file

Here is another way.

//first.js file don't put variable inside any function here.
var globalVariable={
   test: 'myVar'
};

And your second js file

//second.js file
alert(globalVariable.test);

And in html page add
