wt is automation framework? give explonation?

Answer Posted / suresh kumar uppalapati

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.

I am facing an issue of object identification with the dropdown element of DHTML grid. When I tried to recognize these different dropdown objects, QTP identifies only one object for all the dropdowns. Hence, selection of different data from different dropdowns list is an issue. To overcome this problem, i have used Descriptive Programming technique by creating different object descriptions which have all the other properties same but differ only in one property i.e. ‘X’ location of the element on the screen. Hence, i have created distinct object descriptions that would allow us to select values in different dropdowns. The code is given below. But still I am unable to identify distinct dropdown objects. ‘Object Description for Dropdown Cell Status Set objCellStatus = Description.Create objCellStatus("micclass").value = "WebList" objCellStatus("name").value = "select" objCellStatus("x").value = 219 ------ ‘X’ Axis value for cell status drop down ‘Object Description for Dropdown Sub Segment Set objSubSegment = Description.Create objSubSegment("micclass").value = "WebList" objSubSegment("name").value = "select" objSubSegment("x").value = "319" ------ ‘X’ Axis value for sub segment drop down Please help... This is specific to DTML grid(Drop down object)

I need to obtain the parent of an object programatically, so if I have: winButton("aButton") I need to obtain the parent part: window("Window1").Dialog("Dialog1") so I can programatically create a string of the full name of the object to call it with an execute statement in QTP I would like to use something like: part[1] = "window(""Window1"")" part[2] = "dialog(""Dialog1"")" so I can do: exeLine = part[1]&"."&part[2]&"."&"winButton(""aButton"")" Execute exeLine Apart from keeping a record of the window/dialog hierarchy is there a parent or path function/ command Thanks Adrian
