So only references to

${__test_user}   and   ${test_user} will resolve.

Depends where the variable is set, but even so, it should still be
picked up by the HTTP sampler.

There was a bug relating to this:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46901
but that was fixed in 2.4

To try and track this down:

Try setting the variable on the Test Plan itself.

When this is working, you can try setting the variable later in the test plan.
