can any one tell me How exactly data drivent testing is done
in.explain with any example and the exact steps to fallow?

Answer Posted / rajnedra

Data Driven Testing it is a retesting process of software
using an automation tool.
It is simply called as DDT.
In this we will check the software with different inputs to
test its behavior in a comprehensive way.

Here in this data driven testing as i told above we use
automation tool to check with different inputs.
For this first we need to generate a test script
We can generate this test script in two ways
1.Recording Method
2.Descriptive Programing method
IF you are begginer,then no way you will go for recording
Method ofr script generation.
After recording we will convert it into datadriven test.
here the conversion process depends on tool.
It is very easy converting a normal test into Data Driven
Test using QTP.Bocoz it has built in Excel sheet.
somewhat complex but not difficult using WinRunner in
coversion process of ordinary test into Data Driven Test.
it needs a little bit practice and you sholud follow some
procedure.
if u come for Descriptive Programming (simply DP)u should
have some knowledge on Test Script Language(TSL)or one of
VB Script or Java Script langauge.
If we use WinRunner
TSL- Test Script we use or
If we use Quick Test pro(QTP) we use
VB Script or Java script
Most of the prople use VB script for DP.

In a Nutshell i will explan finally about DDT:

1.Generate the test script using Recording method or
using DP.
2.Parameterise the test script.
3.Provide the required data.
4.Run the test script.
"Data driven test means different sets of data will drive
the test to know the software behevior."
