HP QUICKTEST

PROFESSIONAL

HP QuickTest Professional software provides functional and regression


test automation for software applications and environments. Part of
the HP Quality Center tool suite, HP QuickTest Professional can be used for
enterprise quality assurance. HP QuickTest Professional supports keyword and
scripting interfaces and features a graphical user interface. It uses the Visual
Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) scripting language to specify a test
procedure, and to manipulate the objects and controls of the application under
test.
The main features of HP QTP is:-
• Ease of use.
• Simple interface.
• Presents the test case as a business workflow to the tester (simpler to
understand).
• Uses a real programming language (Microsoft’s VBScript) with
numerous resources available.
• QuickTest Pro is significantly easier for a non-technical person to adapt
to and create working test cases, compared to WinRunner.
• Data table integration better and easier to use than WinRunner.
• Test Run Iterations/Data driving a test is easier and better implement with
QuickTest.
• Parameterization easier than WinRunner.
• Can enhance existing QuickTest scripts without the “Application Under
Test” being available; by using the ActiveScreen.
• Can create and implement the Microsoft Object Model (Outlook objects,
ADO objects, FileSystem objects, supports DOM, WSH, etc.).
• Better object identification mechanism.
• Numerous existing functions available for implementation – both from
within QuickTest Pro and VBScript.
• QTP supports .NET development environment
• XML support
• The Test Report is more robust in QuickTest compared to WinRunner.
• Integrates with TestDirector and WinRunner (can kick off WinRunner
scripts from QuickTest).

HP QTP also provides the following:-


1.Verification:- HP QuickTest Professional offers 9 types of checkpoints,
enabling users to verify various aspects of an application under test, such as: the
properties of an object, data within a table, records within a database, a bitmap
image, or the text on an application screen. The types of checkpoints are
standard, image, table, page, text, text area, bitmap, database, accessibility and
XML checkpoints. Users can also create user-defined checkpoints.

2. Exception Handling:- HP QuickTest Professional manages exception


handling using recovery scenarios; the goal is to continue running tests if an
unexpected failure occurs. For example, if an application crashes and a message
dialog appears, HP QuickTest Professional can be instructed to attempt to
restart the application and continue with the rest of the test cases from that
point. Because HP QuickTest Professional hooks into the memory space of the
applications being tested, some exceptions may cause HP QuickTest
Professional to terminate and be unrecoverable.

3. Data Driven Testing:- HP QuickTest Professional supports data-driven


testing. For example, data can be output to a data table for reuse elsewhere.
Data-driven testing is implemented as a Microsoft Excelworkbook that can be
accessed from HP QuickTest Professional. HP QuickTest Professional has two
types of data tables: the Global data sheet and Action (local) data sheets. The
test steps can read data from these data tables in order to drive variable data into
the application under test, and verify the expected result.

4. Extensibility:- HP QuickTest Professional can be extended with separate


add-ins for a number of development environments that are not supported out-
of-the-box. HP QuickTest Professional include support for Web, .NET, Java,
and Delphi. HP QuickTest Professional and the HP QuickTest Professional add-
ins are packaged together in HP Functional Testing software.

5. Test Results:- At the end of a test, HP QuickTest Professional generates a


test result. Using XML schema, the test result indicates whether a test passed or
failed, shows error messages, and may provide supporting information that
allows users to determine the underlying cause of a failure. Release 10 lets users
export HP QuickTest Professional test results into HTML, Microsoft Word or
PDF report formats. Reports can include images and screen shots for use in
reproducing errors.
