RE: Creating Action Template

In QTP Installation Folder there is bin; you can find one file ActionTemplate.

Edit the file as per ur coding Standards and save it...whenver u will open a New Test the Action template details will be reflected.

1. Open the dat folder in the following path: C:/ProgramFiles/MercuryInteractive/QuickTestProfessional/dat
2. Check whether "Actiontemplate.mst" file exist in Dat folder if not Create a notepad in that folder.
3. Enter the text you want get displayed in QTP by default.
Use single quotes ' before the text so as to make it a comment.
E.g.
'TestScript Name:
'Date Created:
4.Save the file as "Actiontemplate.mst" That's it. Whenever you open the QTP you can see the text added in Actiontemplate by default.
