A synchronization point is used to maintain the system time
and winrunner execution time. This is mainly used for the
progress bars. Consider a scenario where we have clicked on
a submit button, which takes 2 min for completion and until
this is completed, the other buttions will be in a disabled
state. At this point of time, winrunner does not identifies
that those are in disabled state and continues its run. If
we place a synchronization point in between, then that
function makes the script wait until the process is
completed, synchronizing the system time and winrunner
time.

The wait function is used to wait for a particular time
specified. If we specify wait(10), thios function waits for
10 seconds.

Anolog Mode: This mode of recording is used where exact
coordinates are required. It takes the coordinates of the
screen to detect objects. The main disadvantage of this
kind of recording is, when the screen resolution changes,
the coordinates of screen also changes and the script will
be failed.

Context sensitive recording: This is the default mode of
recording in winrunner. Using this recording, the GUI map
identifies each object with the name of the object taking
its logical and physical description into consideration.

Answer / ashok reddy

if you put the WAIT statement,the application is stay for
which is mentioned time in wait command,for ex:wait
(10),application process will be completed with in 2
sec,then also,winrunner or QTP will be wait for up to 10
sec.

The sync point is when ever process is completed the tool
will be moved to the next step

Answer / sailaja

Synchronization: it is an indefinite waiting for the
specified process to be completed. until the specified
process is completed, the current process will be waited
while doing some other task. for example, an application
needs to update or open a record from the database, it will
take some time mean while the current application will be
allocated to some other task until the update from the
database is done.

Wait: it is waiting for a specified period of time.
wait(10); application will be waiting for 10 sec and again
gets started.


Recording in Analog mode: when ever exact mouse movements
are needed then we will go for analog mode.


Context sensitive recording: when exact mouse movements
are not needed only key board activities are to be captured
then we will go for context sensitive recording.

Answer / allin

simply says that
wait(seconds)- the control will wait upto that seconds of
time even if the process is completed for particular
function.

obj_wait_info("logical name of the object", status ,
variable)

for example: Save button.
Status is Enable/ Disable
Scenario:
If you perform save functionality, after successful save,
the save button should be disable.
depends on the funcation(communication with the front end
application to data base, the process time may varrying).
so that as a user we need to go for wait_info function.
because user don't know how much time will take to complete
the save funcation.

when the status is changed from enable to disable, imm the
control will goes to next statement execution.

But,if u use wait funcation,it may exceed the execution
time or as visa versa.
