Great video thankyou.. can I just ask why you would create Global/Environment/Collection variables within a script? I understand that local variables would be useful at script level but not sure why you would want to create Global/Environment/Collection variables at script level?

Hello, sir. Your way of explanation is excellent and easy to understand. In most of your videos on CI/CD, I've noticed the topic isn't covered. If possible, could you create some videos on CI/CD tools like Jenkins or Azure? It would be very helpful, as while there are many videos available on your channel, CI/CD seems to be missing

[@arch-wi2gh]

Hello Pavan Sir, Wonderful Teaching! I have question on "unset/Remove Variables". We have an option to remove the Global/Env/Collection variables in the test scripts. But then the main purpose of creating these variables is to be used by other requests. in that case, at what situation we will be removing these variables. Kindly clarify. if we need to remove the variables after receiving the response, we can do it by using local variables. then why use global/Env/Collection variables?

[@sandhyachikkudu367]

Sir,if possible could you please share the presentation, it will help us to understand more.

Hi Pavan sir. As discussed in very first session that API which are hosted on internet or APIs which need internet to access them are nothing but webservices. But while working on actual project in organization we use APIs that need internet to access them. So they aren't APIs right? Are they webservices.
