[GitHub] [jmeter] vlsi opened a new issue, #5878: Add Local Variables

["vlsi (via GitHub)" <gi...@apache.org>]

vlsi opened a new issue, #5878:
URL: https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues/5878

   ### Use case
   
   Use a temporary regexp extractor, and make sure the variable name does not accidentally collide with other variable.
   
   Currently, JMeter supports only global variables, which is a bad coding practice overall. We should lean towards scoped variables.
   
   ### Possible solution
   
   Implement `Local Variables` config element that would specify variable names that would become "local" to the controller.
   
   For instance:
   
   ```
   Transaction Controller
       Local Variables(names = {test})
       Http Sampler
           Regex Extractor(variable = {test})
   ```
