Answer / ravindra

Descriptive programing is nothing but without using the
objectRepositary we are writing the script for the
functionality.
Suppose we have a web application that has not been
developed yet.Now QTP for recording the script and adding
the objects to repository needs the application to be up,
that would mean waiting for the application to be deployed
before we can start of with making QTP scripts. But if we
know the descriptions of the objects that will be created
then we can still start off with the script writing for
testing.

what is descriptive programming?..

Answer / chaitu

Descritive Programming is develoed based on VbScript

Descriptive prog. execution is mainly based on Object
Properties description

when u want to write DP then first u go for
description.create()Object with assigning of object
properties

generally we can identify object properties with the help
of OBJECT SPY


for Example we want to prepare DP for Login operation
Step1 : Prepare Object Descripton

Step 2: Write VbScript for that Login Operation(with help
of DP)
SystemUtil.Run "Path of Server","",Path of .exe".Open
Step 1
Set Login_Obj = Description.Create()
Login_Obj ("name").Value = "Login"
Login_Obj ("micclass").Value = "Dialog"

Set Uname_obj = Description.Create()
Uname_obj ("name").value = "username"
Uname_obj ("micclass").Value = "WinEdit"


Set Pword_obj = Description.Create()
Pword_obj ("name").value = "username"
Pword_obj ("micclass").Value = "WinEdit"

Set Ok_obj = Description.Create()
Ok_obj("name").value = "OK"
Ok_obj("micclass").value = "WinButton"


Step2
Dailog(Login_obj).Activate
Dailog(Login_obj).WinEdit(Uname_obj).Set "xxxx"
Dailog(Login_obj).WinEdit(Pword_obj).SetSecure "xxxx"
Dailog(Login_obj).WinButton(Ok_obj).Click

what is descriptive programming?..

Answer / mukesh

Descriptive Programing is nothing but but describing the
object properties in the script itself. We do not need
object reposiroty for descripting programing. and one more
thing is that we cann't use check points in descriptive
programing, since we will not use object repository in DP.
