41. Explain all Object identification properties.
A. Mandatory and Assistive Properties:
During the test run, QuickTest looks for objects that match all properties in the test object description - it does not distinguish between properties that were learned as mandatory properties and those that were learned as assistive properties
Smart Identification: QuickTest uses a very similar process of elimination with its Smart Identification mechanism to identify an object, even when the recorded description is no longer accurate. Even if the values of your test object properties change, QuickTest’s TestGuard technology maintains your test’s reusability by identifying the object using Smart Identification.
42. What is Ordinal identifies. Explain in detail.
A. Ordinal Identifiers are
Index:
Indicates the order in which the object appears in the application code relative to other objects with an otherwise identical description.
Location:
Indicates the order in which the object appears within the parent window, frame, or dialog box relative to other objects with an otherwise identical description. Values are assigned from top to bottom, and then left to right.
The Web Browser object has a third ordinal identifier type:
Creation Time:
Indicates the order in which the browser was opened relative to other open browsers with an otherwise identical description.
43. What is Smart Identification?
A. Smart Identification:
If QuickTest is unable to find any object that matches the recorded object description, or if it finds more than one object that fits the description, then QuickTest ignores the recorded description, and uses the Smart Identification mechanism to try to identify the object.
While the Smart Identification mechanism is more complex, it is more flexible, and thus, if configured logically, a Smart Identification definition can probably help QuickTest identify an object, if it is present, even when the recorded description fails.
44. What are the properties available in Smart identification?
A. Base filter properties:
The most fundamental properties of a particular test object class; those whose values cannot be changed without changing the essence of the original object. For example, if a Web link’s tag was changed from Optional filter properties:
Other properties that can help identify objects of a particular class as they are unlikely to change on a regular basis, but which can be ignored if they are no longer applicable.
45. What is Object Spy? How is it used in QTP?
A. Using the Object Spy, you can view the run-time or test object properties and methods of any object in an open application. You use the Object Spy pointer to point to an object. The Object Spy displays the selected object’s hierarchy tree. It displays the run-time or test object properties and values of the selected object in the Properties tab. It displays the run-time or test object methods associated with the selected object in the Methods tab
46. What are Run-Time Object Properties / Run-Time Object Methods?
A. Run-Time Object Properties / Run-Time Object Methods:
You can use the Object property to access the native properties of any run-time object. For example, you can retrieve the current value of the ActiveX calendar’s internal Day property as follows:
Eg. Sample code
Dim MyDay
Set MyDay = Browser('index').Page('Untitled').ActiveX('MSCAL.Calendar.7').Object.Day
47. What are Test Object Properties / Test Object Methods?
A. Test Object Properties / Test Object Methods:
You can use the GetTOProperty and SetTOProperty methods to retrieve and set the value of test object properties for test objects in your test.
You can use the GetROProperty to retrieve the current property value of objects in your application during the test run.
48. What are User-Defined Test Object Classes? How are they mapped?
A User-Defined Test Object Classes:
The Object Mapping dialog box enables you to map an object of an unidentified or custom class to a Standard Windows class. For example, if your application has a button that cannot be identified, this button is recorded as a generic WinObject. You can teach QuickTest to identify your object as if it belonged to a standard Windows button class. Then, when you click the button while recording a test, QuickTest records the operation in the same way as a click on a standard Windows button. When you map an unidentified or custom object to a standard object, your object is added to the list of Standard Windows test object classes as a user-defined test object. You can configure the object identification settings for a user defined object class just as you would any other object class
49. What are checkpoints?
A. A checkpoint is a verification point that compares a current value for a specified property with the expected value for that property. This enables you to identify whether your Web site or application is functioning correctly.
When you add a checkpoint, Quick Test adds a checkpoint with an icon in the test tree and adds a Check Point statement in the Expert View. When you run the test, Quick Test compares the expected results of the checkpoint to the current results. If the results do not match, the checkpoint fails. You can view the results of the checkpoint in the Test Results window.
50. What is a standard checkpoint?
A. You can check that a specified object in your application or on your Web page has the property values you expect, by adding a standard checkpoint to your test. To set the options for a standard checkpoint, you use the Checkpoint Properties dialog box.
