QuickTest testing process 2008-04-25 00:59:00 The QuickTest testing process consists of seven main phases:
Preparing to record
Before you record a test, confirm that your application and QuickTest are set to match the needs of your test.
Make sure your application displays elements on which you want to record, such as a toolbar or a special window pane, for example, and that your application options are set as you expect for the purposes
When to use regular expression and when to avoid it? 2008-04-24 01:53:26 Regular expression
s enable QuickTest to identify objects and text strings with varying values. You can use regular
expressions when:
➤ defining the property values of an object in dialog boxes or in programmatic descriptions
➤ parameterizing a step
➤ creating checkpoints with varying values
Regular expression is help us to smoothly run our script if there is any change in string which we can't
Accessibility checkpoints 2008-04-23 07:57:38 If you did not choose to add accessibility checkpoints automatically while recording, you can add an accessibility checkpoint to help you quickly identify areas of a particular Web page or frame that may not conform to the W3C Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines. You can add accessibility checkpoints either while recording or editing your test.
If the page contains frames, the Object
Recovery Scenario 2008-04-23 04:53:55 Unexpected events, errors, and application crashes during a run session can disrupt your run session and distort results. This is a problem particularly when running components unattended—the component is suspended until you perform the operation needed to recover. The Recovery
Scenario Manager provides a wizard that guides you through the process of defining a recovery scenario—a definition
Test automation framework 2008-04-23 04:33:53 A test automation framework
is a set of assumptions, concepts, and practices that provide support for automated software testing. A choice for an automated testing team that's just getting started might be to use a test automation framework, defined as a set of assumptions, concepts, and practices that constitute a work platform or support for automated testing.
Test Script Modularity Framework:
Merging Shared Object Repositories 2008-04-22 07:40:37 QuickTest Professional provides the ability to merge existing assets from two repositories into a single shared object repository using the Object
Repository Merge Tool. This tool enables you to merge two shared object repositories (called the primary object repository and the secondary object repository), into a new third object repository, called the target object repository. Objects in Read more:Merging
Viewing Merge Statistics 2008-04-22 07:35:11 After you merge two object repositories, the Object Repository Merge Tool displays the Statistics
dialog box, which describes how the files were merged, and the number and type of any conflicts that were resolved during the merge.
You can view the merge statistics in the Statistics dialog box at any time by choosing View > Statistics in the Object Repository - Merge Tool window or by Read more:Viewing
WebFile Object 2008-04-22 07:19:28 WebFile Object
is an edit box with a browse button attached, used to select a file from the File dialog box.
The event recorded on webfile object will save as webfile.set etc. For example
Browser("Buy, Sell, Rent Residential").Page("Personal Profile Page").WebFile("uploadPic").Set "C:\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Professional\Tests\IndependentUserProfile\image.JPG"
The
Using Object Spy 2008-04-22 04:18:27 The Object
Spy feature enables you to view the run-time object methods and the test object methods associated with an object. Object Spy also enables you to view the syntax for a selected method. To view the run-time properties of an object using Object Spy:
1. On the QuickTest Professional toolbar, click OBJECT SPY. The OBJECT SPY dialog box appears. Alternatively, select TOOLS → OBJECT SPY.

It will export the
Reporter.filter 2008-04-19 04:41:19 Generally when we write a script, or record script and insert checkpoints. The test fails if checkpoint fails. But we can validate this scenario that if checkpoint fails we should get a message, or we can report it in our test result. If script run smooth, but checkpoint fails, still our test will pass.
Try this code:-
Reporter
.Filter = rfDisableAll
‘This will disables all the reporting stuff
Running and Closing Applications Programmatically 2008-04-18 01:57:16 In addition to using the Record and Run dialog box to instruct QuickTest to open a new browser or application when a test run begins, and/or opening the application you want to test manually, you can also insert statements into your test that open and close the applications you want to test. You can run any application from a specified location using a SystemUtil.Run statement. You can Read more:Applications

You may set it according to your system and installation folder.Syntax
How QTP's identify objects 2008-04-16 05:24:37 QTP's identifyobjects
through a parent-child methodology and use object repository to get the object description. For example, if you have to access a WebEdit object on a given Page (A page is a child of Browser), after recording script would look something like this:
Browser("Name").Page("PageName").WebEdit("Name").Event
Event can be click, setfocus etc.
Now we have two options for our
Setting Testing Options 2008-04-15 07:50:03 You can use the Setting
object to set the value of a testing option from within the test script. To set the option, use the following syntax:
Setting (testing_option) = new_value
Some options are global and others are per-test settings. Using the Setting object with a global testing option changes a testing option globally, and this change is reflected in the Options
dialog box. For example, if Read more:Testing
