Custom functions to Override Standard Operations - QTP


Hi all,

Here I am going to talk about a nice feature in QTP. Generally we might require the operations such as click, Set, etc which should not stop the script if it fails on that particular step.
Also some different way we have simulate the operations for different type of objects. ie. We may need custom functions for click, set etc.

Here is the example.

''This is my function which will do repeative typing
Function MySetRepeat(test_object, TextToSet)
   test_object.Set( TextToSet + TextToSet)
End Function

''This line is used to register the above written custom function for type of objects.
''1st Parameter: Class/Type of object
''2nd Parameter: Function name to call for the test objects
''3rd Parameter: Actual function name you wrote
''4th Parameter: Set as default function or not
RegisterUserFunc "WebEdit", "SetRepeat", "MySetRepeat",True


So, now I am using my function in my script as follows.
Browser("Title:=google.*").Page("Title:=google.*").Sync
Browser("Title:=google.*").Page("Title:=google.*").WebEdit("name:=q").SetRepeat "testing"

Now, it will set the given text 2 times....

Robotic Process Automation vs Traditional Test Automation vs Process/Task Automation

In IT industry, the term RPA is keep on hearing all sides of the walls for a while; and I was so confused about What's the difference from the test automation tools in the market and what's more into it. I did some search, understanding, and writing this post to share with you all. If I am not correct, PLEASE correct me. Traditional Test Automation: First, we have to recall the test automation tool QTP or UFT (Initially developed by Mercury Interactive Corporation(MIC) after WinRunner, then sold to HP, and again MicroFocus acquired from HP now). If you look into the architecture of this tool, MIC was trying to convert the testers into more efficient testers i.e. Testers were executing the test cases manually for regression suites, performance suites, etc. which had lot of repetitive tasks done by human testers instead of concentrating into new ideas or bug finding strategies to improve the quality of the product.  Thus WinRunner was introduced but it was demanding m...

Change IE Browser ZOOM settings

Lot of UI automation testers could have faced this problem as we could change the zoom settings while operating manually for our convenience and forgot to reset to 100%. But our QTP and some other related tools would operate the browser perfectly if browser zoom is 100%. So wee need to change the zoom before start to run the scripts. Its better to have a code snippet in our framework to change this zoom setting right? Here we go... 1. We can simply change the Registry values before Invoking IE Function  ChangeRegistry   Dim  objShell   Set  objShell =  CreateObject ( "WScript.Shell" )  objShell.RegWrite  "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Zoom\ZoomFactor" ,  "100000" ,  "REG_DWORD"   Set  objShell =  Nothing End   Function This option is very useful. But in real time, lot of customers could have restricted write access to windows registry. So we can try othe...
