3. HP UFT / QTP Introduction HPE Unified Functional Testing (UFT) software, formerly known as HP QuickTest Professional (QTP), provides functional and regression test automation for software applications and environments. Using UFT, QTP can automate user actions on a web or client based computer application and test the same actions for different users, different data set, on various Windows operating systems and/or different browsers. Automation using UFT if planned and executed in a proper manner can save considerable time and money. UFT is one of the most widely used automation testing tools in the market today with over 60% market share. Basically, the UFT is a mixture of HP QTP (GUI testing tool) and HP Service Test (API testing tool). Mixture of QTP and ST will be available on a single graphic user interface. So from now onward, user does not have to download two different tools while working. Classification: Restricted Page 3

6. HP UFT / QTP Facts Advantages : Developing automated tests using VBScript does not require a highly skilled coder and is relatively easy when compared to other object oriented programming languages. Easy to use, ease of navigation, results validation, and Report generation. Readily Integrated with Test Management Tool (Hp-Quality Center) which enables easy scheduling and monitoring. Can also be used for Mobile Application Testing. As its licensed by HP, full support is provided by HP and by its forums for addressing technical issues. Classification: Restricted Page 6 Disadvantages : Unlike Selenium, QTP works in Windows operating system only. Not all versions of Browsers are supported and the testers need to wait for the patch to be released for each one of the major versions. The licensing cost is very high. Even though scripting time is less, the execution time is relatively higher as it puts load on the CPU & RAM

Record and Run Feature Steps Step9:- Analyse the results window for Pass and Fail summary Modes of Recording Normal Recording − This is the default Recording mode that records the objects and the operations performed on the application under test. Analog Recording − This records not only the keyboard actions but also the mouse movements relative to the screen or the application window. Low-Level Recording − This records the exact co-ordinates of the objects independent of the fact whether UFT recognizes the object or NOT. It just records the co-ordinates, hence does NOT record mouse movements. Insight Recording − UFT records operations, based on its appearance and not based on its native properties. Classification: Restricted Page 28

29. Object Repository Object Repository :- Object Repository is a collection of object and properties with which UFT will be able to recognize the objects and act on it. When a user records a test, the objects and its properties are captured by default. Without understanding objects and its properties, UFT will NOT be able to play back the scripts. Classification: Restricted Page 29

31. Object Repository Object Repository Types:- Local object repositories: As soon as you create a new action in UFT, a corresponding object repository is created along with it. This repository is known as local object repository. Any objects that are recorded in this repository are only available for the corresponding action and are not available for other actions in a test. Local object repository is present inside the corresponding action folder and always have the name ObjectRepository.bdb Shared object repositories : A shared object repository is an object repository that exists independently of an individual test or action. As the name suggests, the test objects present inside shared object repositories can be used by multiple tests or actions. Shared object repositories can be managed using Object Repository manager. Shared object repository can have any user defined name with an extension tsr. Test O b jects Properties of Selected Object Logical Name Classification: Restricted Page 31
