Following are the LoadRunner Interview Questions Set #5.
Q. 21 What is the importance of Parameter?
Ans: The parameter is created to replace the hard-coded value within the script with a parameter. This allows a single Vuser to be run many times with different values, and to use different data on each run. It helps in stimulating more real-life server demand as it prevents a server from caching results. There are multiple options available for parameterization and its setting in LoadRunner.
