How to Initialize Database Variables and Assign Them Values in JMeter

A variable is an information storage element (for example, storing numeric values, strings, etc.) whose value can be changed. In order to create a variable, it must be declared (specified a name and the type of data stored) and initialized (assigned a value). Creating a variable and assigning a value to it is important for writing test cases that use database queries. This is because we need to get data from the database and also use the values during the execution of test cases.

In our last blog post, we created and asserted a basic data configuration to our MySQL database with Apache JMeter™. Now, we are ready to move on to more advanced scenarios. In this blog post, we will learn to initialize variables and assign values to them in a database. We will do this for one Thread Group.
