Explain WinRunner testing process?

WinRunner testing process involves six main stages:
i. Create GUI Map File so that WinRunner can recognize the GUI objects in the application being tested
ii. Create test scripts by recording, programming, or a combination of both. While recording tests, insert checkpoints where you want to check the response of the application being tested.
iii. Debug Test: run tests in Debug mode to make sure they run smoothly
iv. Run Tests: run tests in Verify mode to test your application.
v. View Results: determines the success or failure of the tests.
vi. Report Defects: If a test run fails due to a defect in the application being tested, you can report information about the defect directly from the Test Results window.

The winrunner testing process consists of 6 main phases: 
1) Teaching winrunner the objects in your application: 
Winrunner must learn to recognize the objects in your application in order to run tests. The preferred way to teach winrunner your objects depends on the GUI map mode you select. 
2) Creating additional test scripts that test your application's functionality: 
Winrunner writes scripts automatically when you record actions on your application. 
or you can program directly into the test script language(TSL). 
3) Debugging the tests: 
You debug the tests to check that they operate smoothly and without interruption. 
4) Running the tests on a new version of the application: 
You run the test on a new version of the application in order to check the application's behaviour. 
5) Examining the test results: 
You examine the test results to pinpoint the defects in the application. 
6) Report the defects: 
If you have test director, you can report any defects to the database.null

Winrunner Testing Process is

       1.Learning

       2.Recording

       3.Edit Script

       5.Track Defects

       6.Analyse the Results

Winrunner Architecture or Testing process :

Learn winrunner about the information fo objects in the application (GUI Map)

Start Recording using context sensitive mode or Analog mode/Design own script

Winrunner runtime engine will identify the object and identify the function while recording.

Stop Recording.Create check points needed.

Run the script

Analyze the results

Log the defects,if any in test director/Any defect tracking tool/Excel sheet etc

create the GUI MAP: The first stage is to create the GUI MAP So WinRunner can recognize the GUI Objects in the application being tested.Use the Rapid Test script wizard to review the user interface of your application and systematically add description of every GUI Object to the GUI map.
Create Tests:You create test scripts by recording, programming, or a combination of both. while recording test, insert check points where you want to check the response of the application being tested.
Debug Test:You run test in Debug Mode to make sure they run smoothly. You can set break points, monitor variables and control how test are run to identify and isolate defects.
Run test:You run test in Verify mode to test your application.
view Results:You determine the Sucess or Failure of the test. IF mismatch you can view the actual and expected result during the test run.
Report Defects:You Report the information about the defects directly from the test result window.
