Hai Everybody,

InvokeApplication "The path of the browser EXE file"

The following example uses the InvokeApplication function to open Internet Explorer.

InvokeApplication "E:\Program Files\Plus!\Microsoft Internet\IEXPLORE.EXE"

Well SystemUtil.Run "iexplorer.exe","","",""  command can be used for this purpose. The other alternative can be choose the menu item record from

Test --> Record which opens up a Run and record settings dialog , Choose web tab from that dialog .

Select the radio button "Open the following browser when a record/run session begins"

Type the required URL to be opened in address field of the dialog and click ok

This open the required url in the browser every time in the run/record sessions

Hi all,

  To invoke the IE browser we can use-

  Systemutil.Run"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IExplore.exe"

 The above statement would take you to the about:blank webpage where you navigate to the URL required.

There are three ways to invoke IE browser and launch a website from QTP.

To be very specific to your question to invoke only IE browser in QTP you can do it but it will only open a blank IE browser. Inorder to do this you need to use the method called as "InvokeApplication"

Syntax: InvokeApplication "Path"

Example: invokeapplication "C:Program FilesInternet Exploreriexplore.exe"
Example: invokeapplication "C:Program FilesMercury InteractiveQuickTest ProfessionalbinQTPro.exe"  This will invoke QTP.

There are other ways to to launch IE browser and also a particular web site like google.com

1. We will use the "SystemUtil" object associated with a "Run" method

Syntax: SystemUtil.Run "url"

Example: SystemUtil.Run http://www.google.com

Here when you run this line of code systemutil.run executes a method called run by which the IE browser is opened and also the url mentioned is launched. This is useful when you want QTP to directly launch the website you want in a single step.

2. When you want to invoke IE and then launch a url through script you can use the object function linrary.

Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.Visible = True
IE.Navigate http://www.google.com

Three ways where we can open a browser

1.Set IE=createobject("internetExplorer.application")

IE.visible=true

IE.navigate "www.gmail.com"

2.systemutil.Run "iexplore.exe",”www.gmail.com”

3.oShell = CreateObject ("Wscript.shell")

oShell.Run Chr(34) & "C:Program FilesInternet ExplorerIEXPLORE.EXE" & Chr(34)

There are three ways to invoke IE browser and launch a website from QTP.


1. First we use the method called as "InvokeApplication"

Syntax: InvokeApplication "Path"

Example: invokeapplication "C:Program FilesInternet Exploreriexplore.exe"
(This will launch IE browser)

Example: invokeapplication "C:Program FilesInternet ExplorerIExplore.exe","www.google.com"
(This will launch IE browser and also a particular web site like google.com)


Example: invokeapplication "C:Program FilesMercury InteractiveQuickTest ProfessionalbinQTPro.exe"
(This will invoke QTP)


2. We will use the "SystemUtil" object associated with a "Run" method

Syntax: SystemUtil.Run "Application/URL"

Example: SystemUtil.Run "iexplore.exe"

Example: Systemutil.Run "C:Program FilesInternet ExplorerIExplore.exe","www.google.com"

Example: SystemUtil.Run http://www.google.com

(Here when you run this line of code systemutil.run executes a method called run by which the IE browser
is opened and also the url mentioned is launched. This is useful when you want QTP to directly launch the
website you want in a single step)

3. When you want to invoke IE and then launch a url through script you can use the object function linrary.

Syntax: Set IE1=CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE1.visible=True
IE1.Navigate("site name") /* with this you can navigate to the URL*/

Example: Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.Visible = True
IE.Navigate http://www.google.com
