Automation Object Model in QTP

QTP Automation Object Model 

The QuickTest Automation Object Model provides objects, methods, and properties that enable you to control QuickTest from another application.

 For example –

1.   We can open QTP with the help of vb script.

2.   We can run QTP tests without opening QTP manually. By vbscript, we can invoke QTP and define the testes which need to be executed.

3.   We can set iterations for the execution of the test script and can also pass parameters.

e.g.

How this can be done? How VBscript controls QTP?

QTP provides an interface (object model), through which we can automate QTP itself by vbscript. By this we can automate tasks like – Run and configure QTP, Run scripts etc.

See below examples – Run QTP – Copy the below code and pate in notepad, same file as “ABC.vbs”.

Dim qtApp

'Create the application object

Set qtApp = CreateObject("QuickTest.Application") 

'Start QuickTest

qtApp.Launch 

qtApp.Visible = True ' Make it visible

Now Run the “ABC.vbs”, It will open QTP.

Note: Make sure u have close QTP Instance
