Creating a Test-Set Using Test Batch Runner Up till now we have 3 tests, in our Tests
Folder. We will create a Test-Set for all the tests. As we continue working on project we will
keep adding new tests to our existing test-sets.
For this purpose we will use the Multi-Test Manager.

Excellent tool…with few limitations1. You cannot send arguments to the test.2. You have to modify the scripts result folder one-by-one.3. Cannot view the reports and status all at once.4. Cannot modify the Report name manually from the tool.
( I usually use the test-set name + Date + Time )5. Cannot run instances of the same test.6. The MTM also has a COM interface ( read attached
documentation of the MTM ), most of the limitations can be "workaround" using the MTM methods and properties.

Comparing TBR and MTM
Both tools Run the Test Batch File. However MTM gives much more flexibility to the user by
generating the report of the test-batch showing the status summary in html format.
Also gives flexibility on types of run ( stop on failure, Run continuously ) also simulates a load, by running tests on a network machine, let user add custom variables to report and more.
Makes task easier for a team to run all tests created by single command and sends out the email of run-status to the entire team.
It supports a rich COM interface. Remark : To run tests on network machine QTP must be
installed on that network machine.

Summary
We learned how to run test-sets using 2 built-in tools of QTP although MTM will come with 9.5 version.
Using the “Test Batch Runner” Using the “Multi Test Manager” Configuring the “Multi Test Manager”. Those tools are a good option for those
who doesn’t use Quality Center.
