what is keyword driven framework in qtp Frame Work is the model or structure we follow for a Project.

It is the approach that we follow to automate the Project. There are so many types of framework in QTP. 1. Datadriven frame work 2. Keyword driven frame work 3. Module driven framework 4. Hybrid driven frame work The framework you choose, depends on the model of your Project. Usually most of projects fall under hybrid driven frame work. Datadriven framework: Here we divide the entire project in to modules and start automation by writing data driven scripting for each one of them. We will have test data either in excel sheet or flat files or from database...we will pass that test data in to the script and perform data driven testing. Keyword driven framework: Firstly we should add the objects to repository( Shared repository is preferable) Then we can generate/write scripts for each functionality and save them as the library files ( .vbs files) Then we have to associate all these library files(which are generated to test different funtionalities) to Quick Test. Module driven frame work: we will divide entire project in to modules and write functions or procedures for each and every module and automate the project. Hybrid driven framework: it is combination of Datadriven and module driven framework.

hi this is nagesh framework: It is generic work prepared by group of experts followed test engineers to preform a specific task in an efficient, effective and optimized way. keyword driven framework: first we will preparing folder structure(env, lib, test data, repository, recovery, test script file). and first we will manually prepare env file: (by default qtp will create env file. env file extension .XML, (QTP>file

settings>env>click>user define>EX-name:nages, value:path of the application>save>.xml)and export this env file in env file) library file: first u will take notpad and u will prepare lib file lib file extension is .VBS Test data: u will prepare test data Test script: and u will genarating the basic script and u will split it and u will set reusabul and saved it) recovery secnario: u will prapare recovery secnario if possible u will prpare rgular expressions file and u will take new page and u will set in datatable some name like keys in that column u will prepare some variables ex:k1, k2. k3 after u will write in expert view varibule name=datatabl("keys") and u will create select case andu will associate lib file, ev file, recovery file,and u will create case function and run

Data-driven testing is a methodology used in Test automation where test scripts are executed and verified based on the data values stored in one or more central data sources or databases. These databases can range from datapools, ODBC sources, csv files, Excel files, DAO objects, ADO objects, etc. Keyword-driven testing or Table-driven testing is a Software testing methodology as part of the Test automation discipline that separates the programming work from the actual Test script so that the test scripts can be developed without knowledge of programming. As a result the test scripts can be maintained with only minor updates, even when the application or testing requires significant changes.
