Hi,
To do Functional testing(to check the functionality of the application) we use winrunner tool.
To check performance of the application we use loadrunner tool.
QTP is the combination of both winrunner loadrunner ,so to check both the function and performance of application we use QTP tool.

Hi
Ima pretty sure QTP is also a functional tool. It is a higher version of winrunner. Incase you need tyo do performance testing you nneed to use load runner

Hi aa2901
U are correct.As u said for performance we use loadrunner.QTP also for funtional testing like winrunner.But qtp has some advanced features over winrunner.In qtp we can test web-based applications also.
