In QTP, you can enhance your script by parameterizing it and one way of parameterization is by calling Environment parameters, which are the parameters external to the functionality of QTP. They can be from another source or application, other than QTP. The other three parameter types besides the former are Random numbers, Test/Action parameters and Data Table parameters.
