Analyzing Results
Planning:-
Before beginning to create a test, you should plan it and prepare the required
infrastructure. For example, determine the functionality you want to test, and
decide which information you want to check during the test run.

Creating Tests:-
You create a test either by building an object repository and adding steps
manually or by recording a session on your application. You can create steps
using the table-like, graphical Keyword View using keyword-driven
functionalityor you can use the Expert View, if you prefer programming steps
directly in VBScript.

Running Tests:-
Run your test to check your site or application. Run your test to debug it. You
can control your run session to help you identify and eliminate defects in your
test.

Analyzing Results:-
After you run your test, you can view the results. You can view a summary of
your results as well as a detailed report. You can also capture still images or
movies of your application as it is being tested.

Add-in Manager
By default QuickTest Support Activex,

load at the beginning of each
QuickTest session. Loading the
relevant add-in enables QuickTest to
work with the corresponding
environment.

Recording Types
Normal Recording
This recording mode is the default recording mode. Normal recording mode records
the objects in your application and the operations performed on them.

Analog Recording
Enables you to record the exact mouse movements and keyboard operations you
perform in relation to either the screen or the application window.

Low Level Recording
This recording mode is enables you to record on any object in your application,
whether or not QuickTest recognizes the specific object or the specific operation. This
mode records at the object level and records all run-time objects as Window or
WinObject test objects.
21
Differentiate Recordings Modes
Normal Recording Analog Recording Low Level Recording
Records Object information based
on test object model.

Records Keyboard i/ps.

Records Mouse Clicks.

Object Information will store in
object repository.

Possible to edit the
scripts after recording with
in QTP.

Recording a signature is
not possible

Recorded steps will run

Support all methods for
every object.
This is Default Recording
method.
Records Mouse Movements respect
to window or screen.

Records Keyboard i/ps

Records Mouse clicks.

It cant record object information.

Not possible to edit the script after
recording with in QTP.

Alternative mode for recording
signatures.

When we are recording with respect
to window, the window object
information will stores in object
repository.

Analog recording and lowlevel
recording require more disk space
than normal recording mode.
Records all objects as window or
win objects.

Records Keyboard i/ps Records
mouse clicks with co-ordinates.

Records object information in the
form of window or winobjects.

Possible to edit the scripts after
recording with in QTP.

Recorded steps may not run
correctly on all objects.

supports the following methods for
each test object:

WinObject test objects:
Click, DblClick, Drag, Drop, Type

Window test objects: Click, DblClick,
Drag, Drop, Type, Activate, Minimize,
Restore, Maximize
