Script for Synchronization
Write down script for synchronization which work intelligently ie it should wait only up to completion of that particular task for which we are using this sync?

To make the wait time more intelligent, I create a function to constantly collect the wait time or network delay from previous actions, calculate the global wait time dynamically based on business logic, then return the best wait time.

When do you go for descriptive programing?
Nadeemsharif
- Jul 9th, 2010
If we are using Keyword Driven Automation FrameWork then we normaly using descriptive programing. We use less object repositories in keyword driven automation testing.All the objects in all keyword functions are identified by using descriptive programing.
Amit

When we have the duplicate object with the same object properties then we need to recognise each object separately using different object properties this assignment of the object properties is done using descriptive programming.

If automating - what is the process for determining what to automate and in what order?
Ravi Sankar
- Aug 19th, 2006
There are two factors mainly decide whether the test is going to automate or not.1. Impact- indicates repetetion with multiple sets of data2. Criticality- indicates the complexity of the test to execute manually
Rashmi U S
- May 16th, 2006
Automation is done mainly during when same test has to be run with diffrent data inputs to check the system under various data inputs.Automation is also done when the GUI of the application is considered as stable.

What steps have you followed while automating?
1) Running the test manually and ensuring a "pass".2)Recording3)Checkpoints/Verification points4)Parameterization if necessary5)Output values if necessary6)Set regular Expressions if necessary7)Alter the Code if necessary8)Configure Object Identification if necessary9)Playback the script to ensure a "pass" again

Security testing
Let's take an example of Login Page,can you tell me any one how we can do security testing for login page?
markfir
- Oct 28th, 2009
1. Make sure the login is done via https request (even if afterwards you don't need to get to any secured area)2. Make all kinds of login validations (incorrect/empty password/username, correct+several characters and trailing spaces etc.)3. Perform SQL Injection test on the login form
anita
- Aug 16th, 2007
1. If you are testing for security on login page, so make sure its not displaying the password, password should be encrypted.2. If you enter invalid password it should not accepted.3. If you log out from page and press back button on standard tool bar it should not display your login page.

I need to understand test automation properly.There are some checkpoints that i went through while reading the manual of QTP.e.g.1.Table checkpoint checks information within table.2.Text checkpoint checks that a string is displayed in the appropriate place in the application or not.3.Page checkpoint checks how long a web page takes to load or whether the page has broken linksetc.Now, All these checkpoints can be checked manually, and infact, in my point of view, it is easy to do it in the manual way. Can you please clarify why indeed, checkpoints are better than testing the application manually.

Difference between Web application Testing and Client Server Testing.
State the different types for Web application Testing and Client Server Testing types?

Editorial / Best Answer
Answered by: kiran gopisetty
- Aug 23rd, 2006
In Web Testing, you test the application with different browsers and different versions of the same browsers. Here, you would be concentrating on User Interface, Functionality and Performance of the application. In Client Server Testing, you don?t require any media/browser to test the application.
A higher degree of Security, Performance and Reliability testing is required for web based applications than client server applications becoz web based applications are multi user applications whereas client server applications are single user applications.
If the database is changed in client server application, the front end source code needs to be changed where as in web based, if the database changes, only the middleware has to be changed accordingly as client never interacts with the server directly. The business logic is @ middleware in web based application where as the same is at client in fat client/thin server architecture and at server in thin client/fat server architecture.

By using QTP, we can run only on Windows Operating system and using IE versions only.we can execute only one script at a time like DOS commands OS.Browser compatibility testing is not possible.We cannot generate the reports, when check points are in huge number.
