This concept is tells about how QTP is identifies objects while running andrecording session.

During RuntimeStep1:-

Look for class and logical name

in script

Step2:-

Search for the same class and

logical name in object repository

Step3:-

Identify the object in application

using properties of the objectthat stored in recording time.

During Record timeStep1:-

QuickTest gets information about

object from OS. Ex. Class

Step2:-

Identifies what properties need

to be recorded based on TOM

Step3:-

Creates an unique description

based on TOM and stores in

object repository as a test object.

Object repository (OR)

Object Repository is the mindfor QTP

The objects which are recorded using any recording type will be

stored in OR

The objects which are there in OR called as Test Objects

Using OR we can

1. Add objects

2. Delete objects

3. Modify Properties

4. Export objects to a shared file

So how QTP creates unique description for an object?

QuickTest Identifies object class with the help of OS and maps to

any appropriate test object class available in object identification

window.

Records all available mandatory properties and checks for unique

description

If recorded description is unique then this description will be moved

to OR

If it is not unique then QTP will record assistive properties to create

unique description

QuickTest learns one assistive property at a time and stops as soon

as it creates a unique description for the object If the combination of all defined mandatory and assistive properties

is not sufficient to create a unique test object description, QuickTest

also records the value for the selected ordinal identifier.

Mandatory Properties

Mandatory to record all the properties

Assistive Properties

Optional. QTP will use when mandatory properties not created unique

description Index / Location/ creation time

Ordinal Identifiers.

Base Filter Properties

Very basic properties to create an object list for smart identification

Optional filter properties Useful to filter the object list created by base filter properties to identify

unique object.

Smart Identification

Its an advanced Object Identification mechanism

Invokes when normal Identification fails to identify object.

Base Filter Properties Optional FilterProperties

11/18

Normal vs Smart identifications

Normal Identification

Uses only recorded

description to identify an

object

Should satisfy all recorded

property values

Fails even one property is

not matched with original

property value

Smart Identification

Uses recorded configuration

settings in Object

identification window No need to satisfy all

configured property values

If one property value fails SI

will use another property to

identify object

11


12/18

Mapping custom class to standard class

QuickTest gets information about object from OS. Ex. Class

What If that class is not available in test object classes list?

The solution is mapping custom class to standard class.The Object Mapping dialog box enables you to map an object of an unidentified

or custom class to a Standard Windows class.

By default an unidentified or custom class will be recorded by QTP as winobject.

This mapping facility is available for only standard windows environment

13/18

Object Spy

Using the Object Spy, you can view the run-time or test objectproperties and methods of any object in an open application. Youuse the Object Spy pointer to point to an object. The Object Spydialog box displays the selected object's hierarchy tree. It displaysthe run-time or test object properties and values of the selectedobject in the Properties tab. It displays the run-time or test object

methods associated with the selected object in the Methods tab.

Difference between RO & TO Properties

Test Object properties are QTP identified properties

Runtime Object properties are the properties assigned by

application provider
