QTP/UFT Version History

What is QTP (UFT)? QuickTest Professional, popularly known by its acronym QTP is an automation testing tool originally from Mercury Interactive which was acquired by Hewlett Packard (HP) in 2006. QTP is primarily used for functional and regression automated testing. Using QTP, you 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 QTP if planned and executed in a proper manner can save considerable time and money. With the release of version 11.50, QTP and Service Test became part of UFT 11.50 software. QTP is one of the most widely used automation testing tools in the market today with over 60% market share. Due to this reason, skilled QTP professionals are always in demand. Version history of QTP:- Astra Quicktest (First version) The first version of QTP was named Astra QuickTest and it was released by Mer

Synchronization in UFT

Image
When we automate the script most of the time we faced several issues with performance of application. sometimes application becomes slow in response sometimes fast. then how we show make sure that our script should run in irrespective of the application performance and response? all automation tools provide specific functions which handles these performance issue. UFT also has Synchronization mechanism to make sure that script will not fail. Lets discuss more about the Synchronization. There are 5 different ways to handle the synchronization. WaitProperty Exist Wait Sync(only for web based apps) Default Synchronization WaitProperty: WaitProperty is a method  which can be apply on any object in UFT. It takes the property name, Value and Timeout value as input to perform the sync. It is a dynamic wait, it means once the object is get visible/enable or state becomes true corresponding action gets performed. so it is highly recommended options. Example : lets put wa
