I want to provide the advice for beginners who want to learn QTP test automation tool. I will try to get you on the road to becoming HP QTP guru, starting with the basics and covering all of the core concepts you need to become vigorous in QuickTest Professional. I am aiming HP QTP tutorial at complete beginner who desires to learn test automation from the very beginning, software professional who needs rapidly expand QTP skills and QA Manager who eager to improve testing and coverage. I'll assume that you already have manual testing or some programming experience and know whats is HTML and DOM.How did I get started with HP QTP?

I was a manual tester and one day while looking for the testing solution I noticed a tool on a software testing market called HP QTP. I have decided to give a try by downloading QTP evaluation version and using it for several iterations on some public web site, lots of trials and errors, lots of experiments, than I brought the evaluation version to the office and presented to QA team members.Step by step guide to learn QTPEveryone wants to learn HP QTP and productively use this test automation tool, but not everyone knows how to begin the journey. The steps for learning HP QTP can be summarized as follows. Start with a basics of Quality Assurance and Software Testing.

Learn when and why do you need to use test automation. Learn basics of VBScript. Download QTP demo version. The trial version is valid for 30 days, which should be enough to start. Learn basic record and replay of scripts. Implement some basic automation scripts.

Learn advanced QTP concepts by buying and studying one of the best, if needed. QA Manager conducts phone interviews during a process of identifying and recruiting talented Test Automation Engineer.

Properly organized telephone interview will help eliminate inexperienced candidates who had an amazing, but used QTP only for for recording scripts and playback. For testers - set of pretty lightweight questions for tester who has MS SQL, Oracle, MySQL on any other database in resume. There is a tools table with columns, id, name, evaluation, training, certification. How do you select all records from the database table?. Create SQL statement to select all records named “”?.

How do you find all records with name “SilkTest, or Selenium 2”?Quick Test Professional interview questions - this is the last knowledge area to try. QA Manager should look for total vacuum in this or any other areas. Failing in any of area of knowledge, would mean that candidate will fail during on site interview. Define for developing web applicaiton?. How to in a web page with HP QTP?. How to using HP QTP?. How to in Agile testing?While conducting the phone interview QA Manager should do most of the talking, or at least the driving.

Quality Assurance Manager should look for specific answers, and guide the interview along until he has got the answer or decided the candidate doesn't know the answer. By the end of the phone interview, QA Manager should have a clear picture of the candidate for QTP Tester position, the accuracy of, and most importantly whether it's worth calling the candidate into the office for a face-to-face interview with the team. Book review should start from mentioned the author name - Tarun Lalwani. He is the leading expert in QuickTest Professional automation test tool and the author of author of well-known book.I haven’t read anything like this book before, because apparently book is a first ever technical sci-fi novel which describes the technical concepts by following the story QTP Tester with several years of experience. The main character of the book is being engaged in the several for QTP Test Automation Engineer position and the book follows the hero in his interview questions and answers battle. In the same time the book has a lot of technical details useful not only for HP QTP beginners, but for an experienced users who wish to advance in the testing carrier.

The book covers on various concepts of HP QuickTest Pro and provides information that is missing in QTP tutorial and documentation. I strongly believe that almost every QTP expert will exclaim after reading this book -.More books reviews and recommendations for QTP Testers.

What do you do when QuickTest Professional (QTP) doesn’t automatically recognize an object in your application? In my experience, these are the first six things to try/check.1.Check the loaded add-ins:It’s pretty basic, but be sure you have the correct add-ins selected. If QTP is only recognizing your objects as standard WinObject this may be a sign that you need to use an add-in. Sometimes QTP’s ‘Display Add-in’ Manager on start-up option, under ToolsOptionsGeneral may not be selected. This setting may cause you to start QTP on a machine and mistakenly assume that all of the correct add-ins have been chosen. Double-check by opening your script and selecting FileSettings under Properties ‘Associated add-ins:’ verifying that all the needed add-ins are listed. Also make sure QTP is started before the application under test.

QTP will sometimes not recognize a web application if the browser was opened before QTP.HP’s Knowledge base:Research the issue. If your add-ins are fine, the next step is to search the. Again, this may seem obvious, but a surprising number of people fail to do this.

There’s nothing worse than spending hours on a script only to discover later that there is a patch (for example see available or a posted solution that will solve the problem. I'm sometimes hailed as an automation genius by fixing something that an engineer may have been struggling with for days, based on information I found in the KB. Often, even after I tell the engineer how I solved the issue, they still don’t check the KB the next time they have a problem. Do me a favor — don't be that guy (or gal)! Check the KB. (If nothing is found in the KB, another great resource to check is.

Using.Object:Look at all the available object’s operations (both the “identification properties” and “native properties” methods). You'll be surprised what you'll find lurking around in an object’s properties that may help to automate it.

Using.Object try as many operations as possible–even ones that may not seem remotely relevant to the action you want to perform. For example: I was having a problem recognizing text on an application’s custom.NET grid. After spying on the object and trying several different methods that sounded promising, I ended up trying an odd one, called GetViewStyleInfo, and surprisingly it worked!Check out my post for another example of using the.Object method. Try GetVisibleText:Sometimes QTP does not recognize text in an object using the GetROProperty(“text”) method. As a last resort, try using the GetVisibleText, GetTextLocation and Type methods. These methods really helped me automate some old proprietary controls. Using a combination of QTP’s TYPE method and GetTextLocation, I created a very reliable rich edit box object function.

For example:If you are using UFT 12.1 good news – method to retrieve text from a specified area 5. Developers are your friend:The application's developers can help you. Ask your developers to expose a method or add a property that will make automation easier. But before you ask — make sure you've exhausted all the above suggestions. Developers can be a tough bunch, and you really don’t want to annoy them with things you could have resolved on your own. I work with some awesome programmers, and as long as I'm able to clearly explain to them what I need and why they never hesitate to help. Make sure there is not a patch that will help.Sometimes there are known issues with object recognition that only a QTP patch will resolve.

Also new patches sometime include support for newer version of AUT like.NET or Browsers.For an updated list of all patches available for QTP 11 check out the Patches section in my article:.NET IssuesAlso there may be issue with QTP/UFT and the.NET version you are using like:.These are my top 6 suggestions – what are yours?. Tip 6.1 – From Mike G Marshall “Another thing to check is “Record and Run” setting under Automation menu. If you try and identify an object in an application that doesn’t match the rules here, it will show as a standard Windows object.”. Tip 6.2 – From Michael te Wierik – “I don’t know how many times I have slaved away to find a solution to an object identification issue, and then remembered to use “ Low level recording” from the Automation menu when recording. Its a massive timesaver.”(UPDATE: – For an updated list of what to try for UFT and QTP object recognition issues listen to my podcast episode —.
