Constant string variable for NeoLoad
NeoLoad uses the “Constant String” variable type to provide predefined text to the script. The ‘Constant String’ variable serves the same purpose as creating a string variable in a programming language. City name, company name, and other consistent strings fall into this category.
Variable input of type ‘Constant String’
- Name: specify the name of the variable to be used in the script. This entry is required.
- Description: explain the function of the variable. This entry is not required.
- Parameters: Definition of the value
- Value: Give the script a string to pass.
Example
Imagine filling out a personal information form where all virtual users are from the same company and country and must provide the following information:
- Name
- Age
- Company
- Country
Now all of the above attributes must be parameterized and an arbitrary string must be specified. For Name, Age, and Company Name, we declare 1 “Random String” variable, 1 “Random Integer” and 2 “Constant String” variables. Since company and nation names are used in all virtual user data, we use ‘Constant String’ for these names. Please refer to the following screenshot for clarification:

You must enter the variable name as $ in the script to use it.
For example, $companyName and $countryName

Note: The ‘Test’ option also allows you to confirm the value of the variable. The variable should return the correct result.
