Parameterization= When you are testing your application You
may want to check how it performs the same operation with
different sets of data at that point of time we go for
parameterization example if you have a login name and
password you may want to test how the test behave with
different login names and password then you need to
parameterize the test.
You can do manual parameterization and data driven
parameterization ...Usually manual parameterization is done
when there is less data and we do data driven
parameterization is done in automated testing when we need
to test lots of data.

Answer / sreekanth
For manualparametrisation you need to wite the Vb script
manually
see the script for flight login application
datatable.AddSheet "sree"
datatable.ImportSheet "abc.xls,sheet1,sree"
k=datatable.GetSheet("sree").getrowcount
For i=1 to k
SystemUtil.Run "C:\Program Files\Mercury
Interactive\QuickTest
Professional\samples\flight\app\flight4a.exe"
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Agent Name:").Set datatable
("name","sree")
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Agent Name:").Type micTab
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Password:").SetSecure
datatable("pwd","sree")
Dialog("Login").WinButton("OK").Click
Next
for datadriver there are two ways
1.Tools->Data driver->Parametrise (in parametrise dialog you
can parametrise selected objects)
2.Go to keyword view
just there is a icon located at the corner of each object
just click on that icon there is a option like parametrize
by using tht option u can parametrise by using data driver.

Hi,
wn ever we need to test the application functionaltiy with
the different input values we can go through the
parametrization concept.
for eg u have to validate the different users.using
username and password.(for all functionaliy is same)
then u can write all the values of users in datatable and
using data driver wizard u can test easily.
but manually it will take too much time.

Sreekanth...
(if you are Sreekanth Chilam your answer is correct) else
look forward...
I think your script is not a Manual Parameterization...
Parameterization means.... Passing the data from external
source into the parameters in Script...
whether it may be from XL Sheet or DataTable... Environment
Variables...Action Parameters... Function OUtput parameters
what ever it may be...
Manual parameterization means... passing the data manually
into the Script for each iteration...
Got my point...?
by using inputbox("Enter your parameter Value")
for every iteration it asks you to pass a value into the
parameter...
Thanks & regards

Answer / divya pasupuleti
In web based applications doing manually parametrization is
very very difficult parametrization is nothing but testing
one content of your application with many examples and it
is a repeated process so it is very difficult to do manually
