Why Use Testing Tools ?


4/114

13 July 2009

Fast: Automated tests run significantly faster than human users

Reliable: Tests perform precisely the same operations each time theyare run, thereby eliminating human error

Repeatable: You can test how the Web site or application reacts afterrepeated execution of the same operations

Programmable: You can program sophisticated tests that bring outhidden information

Comprehensive: You can build a suite of tests that covers everyfeature in your Web site or application

Reusable: You can reuse tests on different versions of a Web site orapplication, even if the user interface changes

QuickTest Professional is a tool from the Mercury group forfunctional test and regression test automation

What is QTP?

Quick Test is a graphical interface record-playback automation tool.Its an easy to use tool compared to WinRunner. Users can createsophisticated test suites with minimal training

Currently we have 9.1 version in the market with more featurescompared to previous stable release 8.2, 8.0

Mercury allows a 14-day trial version so anyone can download and

give a try

The language used for constructing QTP is C++

About QTP


6/114

13 July 2009

To start test scripts over a web application, you have to enable the

Web add-in. You can create Web object checkpoints You can perform checks on Web page properties, text, and tables. You can also perform checks on objects within your application or

Web site, such as images or form elements.

You can also output property or text values from the objects in yourWeb site.

You can use this feature to see if data is updated or a record is createdas a result of an operation performed.

You can create a Microsoft Query using wizard or manually define anSQL statement.

Recovery Manager Scenario wizard available in QTP helps you indefining the next operation to be performed when an error is

encountered.

QTP uses VBScript, WinRunner uses TSL (Test Script Language)

QTP is advanced keyword driven, Winrunner is not

Scripting can be avoided by expert view, by which Business

analysts can also easily create test scripts with no programming

code

Object repository and scripting are in sync

QTP supports session based recording

QTP supports ".NET" application, Winrunner doesn't support

QTP has "Active Screen" support which captures the application, not

available in WR.

QTP has "Data Table" to store script values, variables which WR does

not have.

Viewing the Test ResultsTest results can be stored in their own location (fordocumentation) or in a temporary location that is overwritten eachtime the test is run (debugging).

QTP generates the result file for the test cases at the end of testin the form of XML tree. The result file provides detail regardingPASS and FAILS counts, error messages, and may providesupporting information that allows users to determine theunderlying cause of a failure. Frequently, however, users mayneed to re-execute the test case and observe the failure directly.

The three status reviewed in the test result:

1) Passes- Shows the count of the objects where the action issuccessful.

2) Failed Shows the count of the objects where the actioncompletely failed.

3) Warning- Shows the count of the objects where the actionis completed but not successfully.

Adding Synchronization



35/114

13 July 2009


Synchronization is a step added to a test that instructsQuickTest to wait for the state of a property on a particular

object to change before proceeding to the next step in thetest.

Just like a manual tester will wait for a visual cue to knowwhen the AUT has completed its processing, we instruct

QTP to wait for a cue prior to moving on to the next step inthe test

A synchronization point allows the test to pause while anapplication process completes, before moving on to the next

step.

To add a Synchronization point while recording a test from

Once you select Object from the application forsynchronization, Object Selection: Synchronization Point

dialog box appears. In that click OK.

Now Add Synchronization Point dialog box appears. In thatset the Property name and Property value as the test

requires and click OK.

This will add a new step saying Wait Property in your test

action. Thus, a synchronization point is added to the application.

Adding the Checkpoints

What are Checkpoints?


40/114

13 July 2009

What are Checkpoints?A checkpoint verifies that expected information is displayedin a Application while the test is running. You can add eighttypes of checkpoints to your test for standard web objects

using QTP.

QuickTest will compare actual results from the test run withexpected results in our test plan.

Expected results are based on what was recorded. Actual

results are based on what occurred during playback/testrun.

If the two values match, the checkpoint passes.

A single checkpoint can verify one or more values.

Checkpoints are used to:

Verify the state of an object.

Confirm that an application performs as expected.

Type of Checkpoints


41/114

13 July 2009

Type of Checkpoints

Bitmap Checkpoint: A check for a bitmap displayed say a logo thatneeds to be displayed for a user

Standard Checkpoint: Use Standard checkpoint to verify state of objectslike a button enabled/disabled, checkbox selected or not.

Text/Text Area Checkpoint: When a particular text display in a web pagehas to be verified. We can insert text checkpoint to verify the textdisplayed on a page or specifically between some text/fields

Database Checkpoint: Can be used to check that database isappropriately updated when an activity is done on the application.

XML Checkpoint: User can specify elements, attributes, and/or values tocheck. This checkpoint can be inserted over a XML displayed in thebrowser or over an XML file available in the system.

Accessibility Checkpoint: The list of checkpoints that can be appliedover a page by default can be set using this option. A snapshot ofallowed list is provided.

How to add Checkpoints


42/114

13 July 2009

How to add Checkpoints We can add checkpoint while recording the application or after

recording using Active Screen.

While recording an application, from the QTP menu bar select Insert> Checkpoint > select the checkpoint you want to apply.

A Checkpoint Properties dialog box appears. Now select the

properties for which you want the checkpoint to work from the list.

Preferably text property is selected. Uncheck the remain checkbox of

properties. Also check the condition either Before current step orAfter the current step as required by the application.

A Operation saying check is added to the test action.

The same steps are followed after recording, select the object from the

Active screen right-click on it and from the menu option select the

Insert Checkpoint and follow above steps.

Adding Regular Expressions


44/114

13 July 2009

Adding Regular Expressions While we add the checkpoint for the object in theapplication, we can set its text property value as a result ofregular expression.

To do that in the Checkpoint Properties dialog box, checkthe text property and uncheck all the other properties. In

the Configure Value pane ensure that Constant is check.

Now click the Constant Value option button, a Constant

Value Option dialog box appears.In the Value textbox enter the required regular expression

e.g. [0-9]+, check the Regular Expression checkbox. Amessage box will pop up, click ok. Now on the dialog box

also click ok.The object will not have the text value as the result of theregular expression.

Building Reusable Actions


57/114

13 July 2009

Building Reusable Actions

There are two types of Reusable Actions:

Reusable: Action can be used in the local test, multiple times.

External: These are reusable actions created in another test.This can be of two types. If a call to an external action is usedthe action is read only in the calling test. But, any existing actioncan be inserted as a copy of the original action. In this case, we

can modify this copy of the external action in the calling test.

Record a test and run it to verify that it passes.

Now right-click on Action1 step and select ActionProperties from the menu.

Rename the Action if you want and check the checkbox

saying Reusable Action. Click OK in the HINT dialog boxand save the test.

13 July 2009

Inserting Multiple Actions


59/114

13 July 2009

Now there are 2 ways of inserting the Multiple Actions: Inserting Copy of an Action

When you insert a copy of an action into a test, the action iscopied in its entirety, including checkpoints, parameterization,and the corresponding action tab in the Data Table. The actionis inserted into the test as an independent, non-reusable action

Once the action is copied into your test, you can add to, deletefrom, or modify the action just as you would with any otherrecorded action. Any changes you make to this action after youinsert it affect only this action, and changes you make to the

original action do not affect the inserted action. You can insertcopies of both reusable and non-reusable actions. Inserting Call to an Action

You can insert a call (link) to a reusable action that resides inyour current test (local action), or in any other test (externalaction).

When you insert a call to an external action, the action isinserted in read-only format. You can view the components ofthe action in the action tree, but you cannot modify them.

Specify where to insert the action : At the end of the test or Afterthe current step.

Click OK. The action is inserted into the test as an independent,non reusable action.

Steps to insert call to an Action: Choose Insert > Call to Action, right-click the action and select

Insert Call to Action, or right click any step and select Action >Insert Call. The Insert Call to Action dialog box opens.

In the Select an action box, select the action you want to insert

from the list. Specify where to insert the action : At the end of the test or After

Using Local And Global Data Sheets

There are two types of sheets in any QTP, they are:

Global sheetLocal sheet

Global sheet: Global sheet is unique. Global sheet is used inorder to store values in the sheet and the values stored inGlobal sheet can be used in all the actions.

Local sheet: Each and every action in the script will have itsown Local sheet, name of the Local sheet of a particular actionis same as the action name.

You can also import and export external excel sheets.
