A test automation framework is a set of assumptions,
concepts, and practices that provide support for automated
software testing. This article describes and demonstrates
five basic frameworks.

Basing an automated testing effort on using only a capture
tool such as IBM Rational® Robot to record and play back
test cases has its drawbacks. Running complex and powerful
tests is time consuming and expensive when using only a
capture tool. Because these tests are created ad hoc, their
functionality can be difficult to track and reproduce, and
they can be costly to maintain.

A better choice for an automated testing team that's just
getting started might be to use a test automation framework,
defined as a set of assumptions, concepts, and practices
that constitute a work platform or support for automated
testing. In this article I'll attempt to shed a little light
on a handful of the test automation frameworks I'm familiar
with -- specifically, test script modularity, test library
architecture, keyword-driven/table-driven testing,
data-driven testing, and hybrid test automation. I won't
evaluate which framework is better or worse but will just
offer a description and a demonstration of each and, where
appropriate, some tips on how to implement it in the IBM
Rational toolset.

Hi All, I have QTP installed on my machine but the application under test (AUT) is on remote desktop (i.e. I first connect to remote desktop from my machine in order to run the application). I am able to record the script successfully with QTP running on my machine and application running on remote. However, when i run the recorded script, system fails to run it and indicates me that it does not identify the object. Is it possible to record and play while QTP and AUT are not on same machine?

you are recording on "WINDOW 1", say it has a link if you click on that, that leads you to "WINDOW 2". If you do any manipulations on "WINDOW 2" that are automatically updated in to "WINDOW 1". But "WINDOW 1" is currently invisible. But the updations in "WINDOW 1" must also be recorded as a script in QTP. The best Example is if you update your resume in JOB STREET portal it actually happens in other window, but the previous window is automatically updated. Now does QTP help you in this types of situations? Any body can answer this question. please..... Siva
