What are the QTP advantages and disadvantages?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
QTP is a Functional and Regression testing tool. Using QTP
we can perform regression testing faster when compared to
manual testing. QTP is fast, reliable, repeatable,
reusable, and programmable.
However, QTP needs Add-ins to recognise the objects in
which they are built. For example, if an application is
built in Java, we need to add Java add-in in order to help
QTP recognise the objects in the application. If you want
to test an application that is build in a technology not
supported by QTP, we cannot perform testing effectively.

These are from my notes on QTP :-
It is easy even for a non-programmer to understand QTP and
start adding test cases.
Support for record and playback and ability to edit scripts
after recording. Also different recording modes are provided
in QTP viz. Normal, Analog & Low level.
Excellent Object Identification process / mechanism
Support for different addins like Java, Oracle, SAP, .NET,
Web Forms, Siebel, PeopleSoft, Web services, Main frame
(Terminal Emulator) etc.
Ability to let you enhance the existing tests even without
the AUT (Application under test) through active screen.
Supports all popular Automation frameworks - Keyword driven
testing approach, Data driven testing approach, Modular
testing approach, Hybrid frameworks etc.
QTP comes with an inbuilt IDE, which is simple and easy to use.
QTP uses VBScript which is English-like and very easy to
learn and gain expertise. We have plenty of resource
available to learn VBScripts.
Microsoft Object model can be implanted in QTP easily
(Example – Word document object, Excel Object, Outlook
Object, ADO objects, File system objects, DOM etc)
QTP can be integrated with Test management tools like QC
(Quality Center), Test director and also functional test
tools like Winrunner. The test cases can be mapped to the
automation scripts and be executed from QC (Quality Center)
itself. Also, it can kick off Winrunner test execution from
within.
Easy to maintain different types of suites viz. Smoke,
Sanity, Regression etc.
It comes with loads of inbuilt properties and methods in
QTP as well as inbuilt functions in VBScripts
Support for XML.
Use of Datatables/Excel files are easier and provides a
variety of methods to play around with rows and columns.
Easy to maintain test iterations and data driving the tests
through configurations.
Test reporting with all necessary details for analysis is
provided.
