Setting variable in Servicetask in generated ModelInstance

Hi

I am generating a fake-process that gets called in a test, so I do not have to bootstrap the called process.

Basically it looks like this:

BpmnModelInstance assignmentProcess = Bpmn.createExecutableProcess("taskAssignment")
        .startEvent("start")
        .serviceTask("setCandidateGroup")
        .endEvent()
        .done();

ServiceTask serviceTask = assignmentProcess.getModelElementsByType(ServiceTask.class).stream().findFirst().get();

serviceTask.setCamundaDelegateExpression("${setCandidateGroup}");

But: my code does not find the delegateExpression … I just want to set a key=value process variable. Is there an easier way to achieve this? Maybe something like

     servicetask.execute("execution.setVariable('key','value')");

This?

BpmnModelInstance assignmentProcess = Bpmn.createExecutableProcess("taskAssignment")
        .startEvent("start")
        .serviceTask("setCandidateGroup")
          .camundaExpression("execution.setVariable('key','value')")
        .endEvent()
        .done();
