What is Automation-

Test Automation is the use of software to control the execution of tests & the comparison of results- actual with the predicted/expected. A software program that is used to test another software program, this is referred to as Automated software testing. A third party tool is used to test the application. Use of automation tools reduces the test time as well as the cost.

Why Automation-

Avoid the errors that human make when they get tired after multiple repetitions. . The test program wont skip any test by mistakes. . Each feature test cycle will take less time & Required less human intervention. . Required for Easy cycle of Regression Testing.

Benefits of Test Automation-

.
. . . . .

Allows more testing to be done Strengthen Test Cycle Testing is Consistent, repeatable Useful when new patches released Makes configuration testing easier Test battery can be continuously improved

False Benefits-

Fewer tests will be needed

. It will be easier if it is automated . Compensate for poor design . No more Manual Testing

What is the diff. between WR & QTPQTP Developed by MI Now HP Functionality testing on windows & web based applications It Supports .NET Technology Scripting language is VB-Script Active Screen Available in QTP QTP has data table to store script values Win Runner 7.0 Developed by MI Functionality testing on windows based application Does not support .NET Technology Scripting language is TSL Not Available Not available

QTP supports Multimedia, Main Frames, XML, J2EE It wont support It supports ERP such as SAP, Siebel 7.0, people Soft 8.8 But WR supports Siebel 6.0, people soft 6.0

Introduction to QTP -

. Developed by Mercury interactive But Now by HP

. Developed for web functionality .QTP supports both web applications & windows applications . QTP Developed in 2002 . Test Script developed on VB Script . QTP supports Languages is
.NET. J2EE, Main Frame, XML,Java
ERP -> SAP, Seibel, People soft

. QTP Supports both Technical & Non Technical People . QTP run on only windows platform not supporting UNIX, Linux etc

Object Repository-

Object Repository is nothing but a storage location. It contains the collection logical name and physical description of a particular object. Logical Name: For Naming Convention Physical Description : is Nothing but expected physical properties Two types of Object Repositories are available in QTP1) Per Action (.mtr) 2) Shared Object Repository (.tsr)

Object SpyObject spy is used to display or view all the physical properties and methods of an object or a window based on the requirement. Example: If window(Login). Exists Then Msgbox(Pass) else Msgbox(Fail) End If

26

Virtual Object-

Virtual Object is used to identify the properties of similar objects in a particular Area. Example: In normal recording if we select the paint brush window, the script will look like thiswindow(Paint).Activate Window(Paint).Winobject(colors).Click 72,16 Window(Paint).Winobject(colors).Click 80,14 window(Paint).Close

If we are using Virtual object, the script will look like thiswindow(Paint).Activate Window(Paint).Winobject(colors).Virtual Button(RED) Window(Paint).Winobject(colors).Virtual Button(BLUE) window(Paint).Close Saturday, April 7, 2012 Sreelesh Kunnath 27

Check PointsCheck Point is a verification point that compares the current value of the specified property with the expected value for that property. There are 9 types of check points are available in QTP. They are1) Standard Check Point 2) Text/ Text Area Check Point 3) Bitmap Check point 4) Database Check Point 5) Table Check Point 6) Page Check Point 7) XML Check Point 8) Image Check Point 9) Accessibility Check Point

ActionsAction is nothing but a logical portion to entire script file based on the requirement. Each and every action should have meaningful result. Types of Actions: 1) Regular (By default) 2) Reusable 3) External How to work with Actions: 1) Call to copy of Action 2) Call to Existing Action

Data Driven TestTesting the same application with multiple sets of data. How to use parameterization: Ex: Before parameterization
Dialog(Login).Activate Dialog(Login).WinEdit(name).Set Axis Dialog(Login).WinEdit(Password).SetSecureaxisitt DialogLogin.Close

After Parameterization
Dialog(Login).Activate Dialog(Login).WinEdit(Login name).Set DataTable(name, dtglobalsheet) Dialog(Login).WinEdit(Password). (password, dtglobalsheet) DialogLogin.Close Saturday, April 7, 2012 Sreelesh Kunnath 34

Exception Handling-

It enables Quick test to detect and handle when unexpected error occurred during execution time. Types of Exception Handling: 1) Popup Exception Handling 2) Object State Exception Handling 3) Test Run Exception Handling 4) Application Crash

Object IdentificationBy using object identification we can map customer user defined object to standard Class. Two types of properties are their in object Identification: 1) Mandatory Properties 2) Assistive properties

Ordinal IdentifierBy using ordinal identifier options quick test able to identify an object under ordinal identifier. Three Components are available in ordinal identifier 1) Index 2) Location 3) Creation time

Smart Identification-

Quick test unable to identify the object, it is change randomly. To identify such object we need to use Smart Identification. Two properties are available in Smart identification They are1) Base Filter Properties 2) Optional Filter Properties

Synchronization Point-

Synchronization point maintains the time coordination between testing process and your application process. There are 4 types of synchronization points: 1) Sync 2) Wait, wait(5) or wait 5 3) Wait Property 4) Exist

Regular Expressions-

It enables quick test to identify test string with varying value (varying means changing) Regular Expressions can be used in the following areas:
1) Check Points 2) In parameterization 3) Data Driven test 4) Actions

Some Regular ExpressionsExpression Period Asterisk Plus Brackets Char . * + [A-Z][a-z] [0-9] \w \W Digit \d \d{4} Description Matches any single character Matches zero to any number of occurrences of the preceding character Matches one to any number of occurrences of the preceding character Matches a range of characters Matches a range of numbers Matches any alphanumeric character including underscore Matches any non-alphanumeric character Matches any digit Matches exactly four digits

Descriptive ProgrammingWithout using the object repository test engineer can develop automation test in this particular accept, we need to use a technique called as descriptive programming. Script:
Dialog(test:=Login).Activate Dialog(text;=Login).wineidt(attached text:= Login name). Set Axisitt Dialog(text:=Login).wineidt(attached text:= Password). Set 88888 Dialog(text:=Login).Close .
