Fresh okra will last for up to 3 days in the refrigerator before going bad but can last up to 6 months if frozen.
Bad okra will become brown, squishy and soft and when that happens the Okra should be thrown away.
The Okra may also have a bad smell to it but even fresh okra can have a slimy feel to it so when cooked and slimy it doesn't mean it's gone bad.
