Set parameters when require_once a php script

First, I do not hope this question is too stupid for stackoverflow, but I am quite new to php and do not have much experience.

I have the file page.php and the file sendTestMail.php and I would like to run the file sendTestMail.php with specific parameters.

I am calling sendTestMail.php like that:

    require_once WPGAMAIL_PATH.'sendTestMail.php';

And I need to set two array parameters $wp_set and $ga_set.

Any suggestions what a best-practice solution is?

I appreciate your replies!

You have tons of possiblities, however without knowing the structure within your sendTestMail.php I can only give you hints.

You should basically create a function within your sendTestMail.php - e.g.

<?php
function sendTestMail($wp_set, $ga_set) {
  /* your actual code ...*/
}

If you now require the script you can simply call the function an pass the parameters

<?php 
require_once WPGAMAIL_PATH.'sendTestMail.php';

sendTestMail('john', 'doe'); // or whatever your parameters are

Other examples of how to pass variables to included / required files can be found here
