Global Variable

A global variable is declared and defined at the beginning of a program and can be accessed from any part of the code within its scope. It provides a consistent way to share data across functions or modules but requires careful management to avoid conflicts or unintended side effects.

Note:
Global Variable will already be available in a project.
If it is not available on the screen, you can do the below steps:

  1. Add key-value pairs under the Default category.
  2. Create sub-categories and add key-value pairs to it. To add a sub-category, click the "+icon" , type the name of the category in the text box and then press Enter.

Mention here a statement for the below steps:

Step 1: Choose a project, then access the "Variable" section from the side navigation panel.

Step 2: In the "Variables" section, select the radio button for the desired variable scope (global, environment, or test suite). An initial global variable will be created automatically.
