Answer / mukti prakash

>Test objects are the QTP (HP) defined classes that are used to represent the objects in your application under test (AUT). The information about these objects is stored in object repository.
Runtime objects are the actual AUT objects in your application which a Test object refers to during the test run. The information about these objects can be accessed using Object Spy.
>Test object methods are methods that QuickTest recognizes and records when they are performed on an object while you are recording a test, and that QuickTest performs when your test runs.
Runtime object methods are the methods of the object in your application as defined by the object creator(the developer!). You can access and perform runtime object methods using the .Object property.
