Hi.

The Use Of Regular Expressions In qtp Is

Regular expressions enable QuickTest to identify objects and text strings with varying values. You can use regular expressions when:

defining the property values of an object in dialog boxes or in programmatic descriptions
parameterizing a step
creating checkpoints with varying values

For example, you can use a regular expression if you want to create a text checkpoint on a date text string, but the displayed date changes according to the current date. If you define the date as a regular expression, the checkpoint checks that the captured text string matches the expected date format, rather than checking the exact date value.

You can use regular expressions only for values of type string.

Thanks

When Application has a Huge no. of objects then it increases the no. of objects in shared repositories, this thing also matters in some softwares

Regular expressions are Special characters and sequences  which are used identify the dynamic test objects on AUT

These are mainly used in

1. Defining property values of an object in dialog boxes or programmatic description
2. parameterizing step
3. creating check points with varying values
