    How To run Shared object repository files in QTP ?

    Click on Test->Settings

    Click on Resources Tab

    At the right-bottom change object repository type from per-action to shared.

    Once you have saved a test script with per-action type of object repository you cannot change it to shared.

    go to Resources menu-Object Repository-select the particular text object in left window pane. In right window pane select attached text column field value, a browse icon ('<#>') becomes visible and  click on  it and  select  Regular  expression  checkbox (click on 'No' option in a appeared dialogbox) and  exactly in the place  of  1  write  as  [0-9]*  
    example: text 1           'before  replacement
                    text [0-9]*    'after replacement  is valid
                    text[0-9]*    'after replacement  is not valid because no space in between text and regular expression

    Hi all,

    We actually have few functions to add the results to the Excel File instead in the QTP Results Window.

    Solution description: We will be using a seperate Sheet by name "Results" in which the Results of the Test will be appened.

    There are 2 functions

    1) initOutExcel(sTablePath)

             Description : This function is to initialize a particular Excel Where you want to update the Results of the QTP Tests.

    2) WriteResults(sTablePath,sStatus,sFunctionality,sDescription)

            Description : This function appends the Result of a  Test to the end of the existing results.

    You can modify the below functions to suite your requitrement.

    CODE:

    Function initOutExcel(sTablePath)

      Datatable.addSheet "Results"

      Datatable.importSheet sTablePath, "Results","Results"

      iParamCount = Datatable.getSheet("Results").getParameterCount

      if iParamCount = 0 Then

         Datatable.getSheet("Results").addParameter "S.No",""

        Datatable.getSheet("Results").addParameter "Status",""

        Datatable.getSheet("Results").addParameter "Functionality",""

        Datatable.getSheet("Results").addParameter "Description",""

      End If

       Datatable.ExportSheet sTablePath,"Results"

    End Function

    Function WriteResults(sTablePath,sStatus,sFunctionality,sDescription)

      Datatable.addSheet "Results"

      Datatable.importSheet sTablePath, "Results","Results"

      iRowCount = Datatable.getSheet("Results").getRowCount

      Datatable.getSheet("Results").setCurrentRow(iRowCount+1)

      Datatable("S.No","Results") = iRowCount+1

      Datatable("Status","Results") = sStatus

      Datatable("Description","Results") = sDescription

      Datatable("Functionality","Results") = sFunctionality

      Datatable.ExportSheet sTablePath,"Results"

    End Function

    QTP Regular Expression

    What is the significance of regular expression in QTP?

    Star Read Best Answer

    Editorial / Best Answer

    priyankvyas  

    • Member Since Dec-2008 | May 6th, 2009

    Regular expression is always used to make our search globalize.

    To execute the test in QTP every object is searched in the object repository (OR). In real time applications some object's properties always keep changing, so at the time of execution script fails. To overcome it we use "regular expression" for that particular object's property. For example:

    1) Record a test where you are inserting one order and than faxing the same order.

    2) The order number that is generated during recording may 21 and "Fax Order window title" is generated and saved into OR as "Fax Order No. 21"

    3) Now execute the same test, the script will fail because this time order no is modified as 22 and accordingly "Fax Order window title" is modified as "Fax Order No. 22".

    4) This time the object "Fax Order No. 22" is not identified or you can understand object is not matched (find) into OR.

    5) To make this search better we modify the text property of object into OR as "Fax Order No.*" this will search all the occurrences of window that has text as "Fax Order No"

    6) We can also write it as "Fax Order No. [0-9]" because fax order no is a numerical value and this will search only numbers after "Fax Order No. "

    So this is the purpose of regular expression in QTP.

    Using RE we can make the QTP to recognize same object with its varying name.For example, a window having title as "Employee NO. 7"If I want to pass data to multiple Employee No. Windows, So I have to use RE as "Employee No..*" in Object Repository..

    ch.bhaskar.mca  

    • Member Since Oct-2007 | Apr 6th, 2011

    Hi,

    As the name specifies, "Synchronization Point" is nothing but to say QTP to wait till some specified condition occurs. You can specify the conditions.

    We need Synchronization Point because we are always not sure how much time it takes for an Object to get loaded to a page/window.

    Let's take an example of "Login" page of any application. You want to provide "UserName" in the UserName field after opening the site via QTP.We can provide value only after "UserName" field is visible. But sometime it may take 10 seconds for the "UserName" field to be appear in the Login page. Sometime it may take 30 seconds (Depends upon the internet speed).At this point QTP script fails as the object is not displayed in the page. So here what we do through "Synchronization Point" is to tell QTP to wait untill the "UserName" field appears on the page, may it take 10 secs or 30 secs.

    There are 2 ways (for Web Application) you can acheive this as follows:

    Quote:> Browser("").Sync (Only in case of Web App) : QTP waits untill all the objects are loaded to the Browser

    > WaitProperty (Any type of App) : QTP waits untill the specified condition is satisfied
    Following is an example of "WaitProperty"

    Quote:Syntax: Object.WaitProperty "Property Type","Property Value",TimeOut

    Ex: Browser("Login").Page("Login").WebEdit("UserName").WaitProperty "visible",True,20000
    Browser("Login").Page("Login").WebEdit("UserName").Set "bhaskar"

    In the above example QTP waits untill the WebEdit "UserName" is visible in the page.Then it sets the UserName in the field.

    Hope it helps you.

    How do you test JAVA tree objects ?

    Star Read Best Answer

    Editorial / Best Answer

    Answered by: Taji

    • Jun 24th, 2006

    For testing Java Objects you need to install an additional Java Plugin. This will enable QTP to identify java objects. This should also solve the java tree problem.

    if you already have installed the java plug-in and asking for a method to test java tree objects, there is no single answer i can give. but you might have to apply your own logic through descriptive programming.

    Hi,

    I am giving an expample of regression testing.

    Example:

    We have a "Yahoo" web application. Suppose if yahoo is going to add a new features in their application it has to verify the existing web page along with new features. If it is adding new features for every two months, it has to test existing and new features every time. The repeated testing is nothing but regression.
    (means the new functionality does not effect on the existing functionality).

    we are using QTP to test the existing functionality is working proprly or not.

    Regression testing is the testing done to verify the defect fix. For example if you encountered a defect and report to a developer and developer fixed it and deliver the code again, then you verify that the defect is fixed. This testing is called as regression testing. I hope you understood.

    You can use object spy to get the name of the first page number (i.e. the "#1" button string will have either a 1 or a 0 in its string.)

    Then you can change this to a variable(say "x") and then use descriptive programming for the string.

    You will then have a Loop statement (preferably a For...Next Loop) to check on the max number of page number links that are available on the primary screen (say 5 is the max) and see if "Next Button" is still high lighted.

    If it is, click on next after reaching 5 till "Next button" is disabled or does not exist.

    When Next button is disabled, the Value of "x" is the total number of result pages(ie if the #1 link starts with a logical number of 1) and x +1 if the #1 link starts with a logical number of 0.

    Hi,

    Both Per action and shared has its own advantages and disadvantages.

    Per Action:

    ? When we ?Record by setting the repository to Per action each and every action will have its own repository. So each action will be independent with the other action w.r.t the Object Repository.

    Shared:

    When we record by setting the Object Repository to shared mode, all the actions in that particular Test can use the same Shared Object Repository . i.e there will be only one repository which contains all the objects that are required across all the actions.

    I am giving this as per my Knowledge there may be some more as well...

    TypeAdvantagesDisadvantages
    PerActionThe actions can be reused and as the repositories are individual there wont be any problem with the Objects.If there are few objects that are being used in more than one action then there will be a duplicate occurence of the object in the object Repository as the object repositories are different for different actions
    SharedThere will be only one Object Repository and can be maintained easily
    Shared

    Even if there is a need of using same object in more than one action, then there will be only one occurrence of the Object in the Object Repository.As the Object Repository is shared.
