How often you do the load test in your current project?
Answer
# 1
Load Test is ideally done only once, and only after all the
Functional Testing (UAT/SIT).

Otherwise, i could depend on your client requirement.

This also depends on the Project / application demand.

For Example if the application is like depends on the Data
that is going to change every day with heavy fluctuations.
Then we will keep certain time period (say 30 days) we will
test the LOAD during these 30 days on every day to moniter
the performance behaviour of the application.

What is the difference between Systemutil.run and Navigate.

Answer Go through the below script, u may get the better
#2 answer

SystemUtil.Run "iexplore.exe","www.google.com"

Browser("name:=Google").Navigate "http://www.cnn.com/"

Browser("name:=CNN.com - Breaking News,").Page

("title:=CNN.com - Breaking News,").Link
("name:=Health").Click
wait(10)
browser("name:=CNN.com - Breaking News,").Back

SystemUtil.Run : By using SystemUtil.Run we can run

any
application from specified location. (as above
SystemUtil.Run "iexplore.exe","www.google.com")

2nd example: to run the flight reservation login

window
SystemUtil.Run "C:\Program Files\Mercury
 Interactive\QuickTest
Professional\samples\flight\app\flight4a.exe"

Navigate : Open a specified URL in the browser

i.e object.Navigate "URL specified" and here the
object is
the test object of type browser (as per above i.e
Browser
("name:=Google").Navigate "http://www.cnn.com/")

It is very much important to know the difference

between

What is the difference between low level recording and virtual object.
Answer Low-Level Recording—enables you to record
# 2 on any object in your application, whether
or not QuickTest recognizes the specific
object or the specific operation. This
mode records at the object level and
records all run-time objects as Window
[Parent]or WinObject[child] test objects.
Use low-level recording for recording in
an environment or on an object not
recognized by QuickTest.

Virtual Obj. Means.....

Application may contaion objects that
behave like standard
objects but not recognize by QTP, u can
 define these
objects as a virtual objects and map them
standard class

QUESTION : I have recorded a test using qtp to download a file in an

Dialog("Save As").WinButton("Save").Click
Dialog("Save As_2").WinButton("Yes").Click

Problem:

When running this test it gives an error at line no. 5 as

Save button object is not identified by it's parent object.

This code I ran 4 times after recording at it was working

fine but 5th time onwords, it starts giving me the above
problem. I used exist property option, Check Property
option but none of this changes work at all.

ANSWER: See, there are 2 "save" buttons in your script.

when you are running the script, QTP getting confused due
to the existance of 2 SAVE button, unable to identify them
properly. so they will be distinguished in 3 three way
i) Index value proerty
ii)creation time property
iii)Location property

Use any one of these property, i think it will work

Please explain me in detail! How to handle runtime errors in QTP useing recovery senario
or with out scenario

Answer There are 4 trigger events during which a recovery

# 1 scenario should be activated. They are
A pop up window appears in an opened application during
the test run.
A property of an object changes its state or value.
A step in the test does not run successfully.
An open application fails during the test run.
These triggers are considered as exceptions and more
details regarding how to use Recovery Manager is given
in the QTP User Guide. Since there is hardly any space
to put up snapshots
Answer Let me explain with out recovery scenario,
# 3 we can handle exeptions like pop windows by using IF
ELSE statements.

for example..

if window("XXXX").dialog("XXXX").exist then

window("XXXX").dialog("XXXX").winbutton("text:=XXXX").click
window(("XXXX)).winbutton("XXXX").click
else
<put remaining script here>

end if

and also by using methods like "on error resume next,

err.number, err.raise, err.information" methods.
We can also Stop the error by using below lines

MsgBox ("Error # " & CStr(Err.Number) & " " &

Err.Description)'this lines given the error number and
Description

Err.Clear 'this will clear the Error

Answer and also...

what is use of optionexplicit in variable declaration
option explicit means.. it is the statement which is
declared during the variable declaration...

Option explicit statement is available to require explicit

declaration of all variable ... That means one may mispell
the variable name in one or more places,causing unexpected
results when your script is run.

Advantages of Option Explicit:

1. Clearity of the Program enhanced by proper coding rules

• Professionals always instruct to use ‘Option Explicit’
on coding. This enables the programmer to enhance his code
to pre-declared standards.

2. Program code is easier to debug and read

• Programmer has clear idea about each variable he will
use because he has already declared what kind of data type
which will have by each variable. Therefore, even another
programmer can read the code and understand it easily than
an ‘option explicit’ off document.

3. Reducing mistyped variables instead of existing usable

variables
• User may use alternate names mistakenly for already
used variables. If you have ‘option explicit’, then the
mistyped variable will generate an compile error describing
an non-declared variable. But, if you haven’t ‘option
explicit’ in your program, this will be an programming error
which will give an erroneous result to end user.

4. Give more reliability on data

• ‘Option Explicit”cause programmer to have more
understanding on declared variables. This enables the
variable to have additional attention, and reduce any
attempt to misuse a variable unintentionally.

5. Can implement Error detection mechanisms using data types

• Data types define what kind of data that can be hold by
a given variable. If you try to assign date value
“21-08-1985” to character variable, then system will
automatically generate an exception or error. You can use
this error or exception to track the user, but you may want
to build several other mechanisms to track bad inputs if you
didn’t used ‘Option Explicit’

6. Faster memory allocation

• When declaring variables, VB assigns particular amount
of memory to that variable depending on its data type.
Typically, 32bits for Integer values etc… But if you are
looking to allocate memory while run-time, that will reduce
program’s performance.

7. No run-time dynamics
• Programmer can complete the building process as he has
given and knows all the resources needed by the program to
run. But, if program is designing memory capacities and
other things while run time, potential for generating an
error is much higher.

Disadvantages of Option Explicit:

1. Declaring variable names and its data types and all

other things take some time. It is not just about the
coding; programmer must design it at the specification stage
of the program. (That is even before he sit before an
computer to code the program)

2. After declaring an variable, the variable can have

fixed Range of values. This limits the productivity or the
usability of a variable, because when we don’t need the
existing value in a variable, still we can’t assign another
value which is not similar to variables’ data type.

3. When assigning values to declared variables, compiler

or interpreter need to check whether the input matches the
data type. This slows down the processing.

However, importance of ‘Option Explicit’ Statement has

increased by providing alternative mechanisms on ‘Option
Explicit’ disadvantages. For example, newer VB versions have
integer data types in different modes – 16 bit, 32 bit etc…

what is smart identification in qtp? pls any give details? thanks in advance

Answer Smart Identification : Its a mechanism provided by Quick

# 3 Test to identify dynamic bjects whose properties are
changing time to time....( Say a Submit button changes to
Save after clicking once)
Now the test property of that button is changed.If we
generate the script statement
Window("windowname").dialog("dialogname").winbutton
("submit").click

beacuse submit button is no more available in window

Generally Object Identification is done using the physical

description (Mandatory and Assistive properties) of that
object in the object repository.

But If we want to enable Smart Identification we have 2

ways.

1) enable Smart Identification for Object class

2) enable Smart Identification for a single Object

If we want to enable Smart Identification for entire object

class
 Go to Object Identification---> select the environment--->
select the object class---> check the enable smart
identification checkbox in object Identification dialog

If we want to enable Smart Identification for a specific

object

Go to Object Repository---> select the environment--->

select the object class--->select the object---> check the
enable smart identification checkbox in object Repository
dialog

And we should select the Base Filter and Optional filter

properties for the selected object class/object.

When we enable this smart Identification Quick Test will

try to locate the object based on these properties only.

How to handle Recovery scenario in QTP. give detailed explanation about recovery scenario.

Answer Unexpected events, errors, and application crashes

# 2 during a
run session can disrupt your run session and distort
results. This is a problem particularly when tests run
unattended?the test pauses until you perform the
operation
needed to recover. To handle situations such as these,
QuickTest enables you to create recovery scenarios and
associate them with specific tests. Recovery scenarios
activate specific recovery operations when trigger
events
occur.
The Recovery Scenario Manager provides a wizard that
guides
you through the process of defining a recovery
scenario,
which includes a definition of an unexpected event and
the
operation(s) necessary to recover the run session.

A recovery scenario consists of the following:

Trigger Event. The event that interrupts your run

session.
For example, a window that may pop up on screen, or a
QuickTest run error.

Recovery Operation(s). The operation(s) to perform to

Hello! i am having two comboboxes.Each having 10 items in it.when i select first item in first
combobox,it is not similar in the second combobox.for ex in first combo if it is Hyderabad,in second it
should be some chenai or some other item .Write a VBSCRIPT for that?

Answer We can do this in two ways...

# 3
1. Get all items from two combo boxes and store in two
separate arrays or in DataTable... "Your convenient process"

2. Validate one after the other dynamically in Loop...

I will keep one way here which I feel Logically better

2.
 dim exp,act,cmb_1,cmb_2

cmb_1_cnt=browser("...").page("....").weblist
("...").getitemcount

for i=1 to cmb_1_cnt

exp=browser("...").page("...").weblist("...").getitem(i)

call cmb_2_Func()

reporter.reportevent micPass,"Test is Passed","Two

comboBoxes contain Different Items"

Next

Function cmb_2_Func()

cmb_2_cnt=browser("...").page("...").weblist
("...").getitemcount

for i=1 to cmb_2_cnt

act=browser("...").page("...").weblist("...").getitem

if (act=exp) then

What is the abbrivation of .mtr in action reposirtory?
 Answer
# 2 mtr stands for mercury test repository

does qtp runs on internet explorer 7.0

Since qtp does not require
IE to open unlike QC it really does not matter. Basically
QTP is independent of IE
IE7.0 works with QTP9.2
QTP 8.2 does not compatible with IE 7.0
QTP works on I.E 6.0,7.0 the same way if u record the
application and play back.

i.e Browser("name").Page("name"). in this case ur giving

the browser name and page name if there are 100 browsers
also QTP will run your script.

But if Browser("micClass:=").Page("micClass:="). in this

case u directly declare the class to which browser
belongs.Then QTP cant work on different Browsers and Page's

It depends on the way u have learnt QTP

If you have testcases that worked like a sharm with QTP +
IE6, but does not work with QTP + IE7. Then you should try
to disable the tabbed broswing functionality in IE ("Tools -
-> Internet Options --> General --> Tabs --> Settings" and
untick the "Enable tabbed browsing..."-checkbox).

QTP have some issues with the tabbed browsing functionality

in IE7.
What is the Difference between Environment variable and Globle variable,.. anybody can give
me answer..Thanks in advance...

Answer Environmental variables:it is like

# 4 a global variable.We can
use it in different tests and
actions.

Global variables:it can be used

within a test and multiple
actions.

local variables:it can be used

within a test and an action.
 

e: we have 10 more actions in our test and we are using exit action command to come out
from the action if any error s occured.In action 1 if any error occurs control is moving to
 second action but if we get error in second action exitaction is throwing general run error.
Please give a idea to overcome .

Answer General Error occurs whenever QTP

# 1 intercepts any object
which it fails to identify
uniquely because the properties
given by you in the code matches
with many of the objects
present at that time.
So, the ExitAction cannot throw
such an error and this
error must be thrown by some line
code before you are
actually exiting the action.
Please confirm it n then reply in
case you find it nt the
case.

 hi testers,one script has three actions , at the of running three actions are running , how to
set run only perticular action and what is the use of split the action? when it will be useful?

Answer Hi,
# 2 If you don't split the test in to
action, each time
you run it'll run the whole test. which
is the waste of
time and efforts.Splitting the action is
useful especially
when we parameterize the object.When you
parameterize the
object if you don't split into actions
the whole test will
run that many iterations.
We can't set particular action to run
but we can specify
how many time the particular action
should run. This can be
done by selecting the action and right
click and select the
action call property and make sure the
run tab is selected
and in that you can specify how many
times the action
should run.
