2) not able to launch qtp

c:\program files\mercury interactive\quicktest
professional\bin\quicktestprofessional.bat

3) problem accessing the file on quality center

first you store the excel file in the 'attachements' tab of you automation folder
in qc (this i believe you already have stored in the qc folder
'[qc]subject\ins\regression testing (rt)' )now in qtp, from main menu, select
'tools->options'. in the options dialog box, go to 'folders' tab and add the above
qc folder where you stored the excel file in the folders tab.when a qtp script,
stored in qc, is executed on a machine, the files stored as attachments in the qc
folder, get downloaded in the local machine. the local path of this copy of the
file can be retrieved using pathfinder.locate statement: so you can use something
like below to get the path of your excel filestrdataexcelfile =
pathfinder.locate("currentpassword.xls")then use this variable
'strmyexcelfilepath' in the getexceldata function for the file name parameter like
below:environment("password") = trim((getexceldata (rowno,colnumber,sheetnumber,
strdataexcelfile )))

4) how to save a value in datasheet attached in qc.

'give the data path as belowdatatable.import "[qc-
attach];;subject\data;;\datasheet.xls"datatable("param1","updatesheet") = "updated
value"datatable.export "[qc-attach];;subject\data;;\datasheet.xls"

5) pass data to a variable.

play="cricket"if(browser("name:=p").page("title:=s").webelement("html
tag:=acronym","innertext:=" & play,"index:=0").exist) thendo thiselsedo thisend if

6) how to get page name

set pg=description.createpg("micclass").value="page"msgbox
browser("xxx").page(pg).getroproperty("name")msgbox
browser("xxx").page(pg).getroproperty("title")
7) qtp 8.2 - toproperty roproperty

gettoproperty returns property value from object repository for particular

object.getroproperty return property value of same object at run time.example.
when u recorded script or added object to or..text field contents value as say
"a"then u r modifying contents of text field thru script and setting it to say
"b"now after modifying text field contents if u perform following
check..webedit().gettoproperty("value")..webedit().getroproperty("value")answer
would be ab

8) accessing qc database from qtp

for i=1 to recset.recordcountif i=1 thenrecset.first()end ifmyrecset =

recset.fieldvalue("tc_iterations")msgbox myrecsetrecset.nextnext

9) invoking qtp from the command line

create a new vbs file with the following content:set qtapp=
createobject("quicktest.application") qtapp.launch qtapp.visible = trueqtapp.open
"c:\tests\mytest"qtapp.test.runqtapp.quitrun it from the command line:cscript
"c:\myvbsfile.vbs"it will start qtp, then open and execute mytest test, then close
qtp.

10) get the number of columns in the table

yes there is a way to get the nubmer of columns in a table..but before that what
type of application are you using?web or anything else?if it is web then use
thiscolcount=browser("xyz").page("abc").webtable("efg").getroproperty("cols")print
colcount

11) how to capture child objects from a webtable

try something like this and seeset objtable=browser().page().webtable()introwcount

= objtable.rowcountfor introwloop =1 to introwcountintcolumncount=
objtable.columncount(introwloop)for intcolumnloop = 1 to
intcolumncountintchildcount=objtable.childitemcount( introwloop,int(intcolumnloop-
1), "webedit")' verify for webedit insite if intchildcount<>0 thenset
objchild=objtable.childitem (introwloop,int(intcolumnloop-1), "webedit",
0)objchild.set "abcd"end ifnextnext
12) adding a sheet and some specific column at run time

set newsheet = datatable.addsheet("mysheet")newsheet.addparameter "username",

""newsheet.addpatameter "step", ""to add values to the sheet at run time can i use
this code datatable.value("username","mysheet") =
"psuk"datatable.value("step","mysheet")= "pisuk"

13) descriptive programming to identify an object

set odesc = description.create ()odesc("property1").value =

value1odesc("property2").value = value2odesc("property3").value = value3set olist
= browser("b").page("p").childobject(odesc)msgbox olist.countif olist.count > -1
thenfor i = 0 to olist.count - 1olist(i).highlightnextelsemsgbox "there is no
object in gui which matches current description"end if

14) how to handle error in qtp using vbscript

do one thing .always use wrong values for ur text boxes now after clicking on ok

another loc that clicks on ok of that validation message and now reenter the
correct values and proceed futher.b.p.webedit(user name).set
"&^$%^$%^"b.p.webedit(password).set "$%^$^$%^$^"//parametrize these steps with
incorrect combinations always to check t he
errorsb.p.webbutton.clickb.dialog().winbutton.clickb.p.webedit(user name).set
"correct user name"b.p.webedit(password).set "correct password"b.p.webbutton.click
