Introduction to Quick Test Process
• Quick Test testing process consists of 7 main phases
• Preparing to record
Test Environment
Test Conditions
• Recording a session on your application
Navigate according to Test Conditions
• Enhancing your test
Adding logic and conditional statements
Parameterization
Inserting checkpoints
• Debugging your test
Check that it operates smoothly and without interruption.
  3
QTP Testing Process

• Run Test
Check the behavior of your application

• Analyzing the test results

• Reporting defects

Object Spy

• It is used to view object properties

and Methods

• Displays
Object hierarchy tree

Run-time object methods

or test object methods

Recording Modes

• Normal recording

Records the objects in your application and the operations performed on them. This mode is the default and takes full

advantage of Quick Test’s test object model.

Analog Recording

Record the exact mouse and keyboard operations you perform in relation to either the screen or the application window.

Low-Level Recording

Record on any object in your application, whether or not Quick Test recognizes the specific object or the specific operation.

Record and Playback

• Advantages
• Useful in determining how the QTP interacts with
the application under test.
• Provides initial ideas on how to develop test
scripts.
• Useful while ‘Playing around’ with the tool

• Disadvantages
• Test scripts contains hard-coded values.
  14
Enhancing Tests
1. Parameterizing Tests
2. Creating Output Values
3. Creating Checkpoints
4. Regular Expressions
5. Dividing Tests into Multiple Actions
6. Inserting Transactions.
7. Calling External Libraries.

  15
Parameterizing Tests
Steps for Parameterization
2. Defining a Data Table Parameter
3. Adding Parameter Values to a Data Table
4. Modifying Steps Affected by Parameterization
5. Running and Analyzing a Parameterized Test

 Results
• After running a test, we can view a report of major events
that occurred during the test run.
• The Test Results window contains a description of the
steps performed during the test run.
• If the test contains Data Table parameters, and the test
settings it shows on Test Results window.
• Results are grouped by the actions in the test.
