Working with Dynamic Object using Quick Test Professional (QTP)

There are several ways to work with dynamically generated object:

  1. Using Regular Expression
  2. Using alternative object property to uniquely identify the dynamic object
  3. Descriptive programming

Use regular expressions for the dynamic property.

  • Open the Object Repository, and find the object from the left side of the Object repository window.
  • From the list of the properties, select the dynamic property.
  • Click the edit icon, which is next to the Constant edit field.
  • Check the ‘Regular expression’ checkbox.
  • Replace the dynamic portion of the string with wild cards (*) and Click “OK”.

Modify the Object Repository for the dynamic object to use different property to uniquely identify the object:

  • Open Object repository, and select the dynamic object
  • Click on the Add/Remove Button
  • Choose a different property to identify the object uniquely

Use descriptive programming which allows using object properties directly to the script.

Example:

Set BillingOptions = Description.Create

BillingOptions(”title “).Value =”\Billing Options.*”

BillingOptions(”creationtime”).Value =1

Testing Measurement

Someone has rightly said that if something can not be measured, it can not be managed or improved. There is huge value in measurement, but you should always make sure that you get some value out of any measurement that you are doing. You should be able to answer the following questions: What is the purpose of this measurement program? What data items you are collecting and how you are reporting it? What is the correlation between the data and conclusion? Value addition: Any measurement program can be divided into two parts. The first part is to collect data, and the second is to prepare metrics/chart and analyses them to get the valuable insight which might help in decision making. Information collected during any measurement program can help in: Finding the relation between data points, Correlating cause and effect, Input of future planning. Normally, any metric program involves certain steps which are repeated over a period of time. It starts with identifying what to measure. After t...

What’s New with QTP 9.5?

This is the general overview giving the brief description of what is new in QTP9.5 New Features: 1.  New design time panes: Various new IDE panes have been introduced which does not provide any new functionality to add up but basically the operations which were in the deep sub menus are now put up in front. Available Keyword Pane: This pane shows all the available functions in the current test (either in-action or externally added), as well as all the objects in your object repository (local and external). The items are effectively separated into groups, making it easier to search for a relevant item. Double clicking any item in the pane will open it, and dragging the item to the main window will add it to the script in the drop position. Double clicking a function will not only open the hosting file in the main window, but also focus on the exact position of the function within the file. Test Flow Pane: This pane lays out the action call structure of the current test. It outlines...
