L7 - Handle multiple digits in Calculator

Problem statement : How to test calculator for multiple digits of different lengths.

We will use function to handle this type of situation as below:

Step 1.

Create a datatable as shown below:

Step2 . Write script as below:

x=1

DataTable.GetSheet dtlocalsheet

For x=1 to 2

DataTable.SetCurrentRow x

Window("Calculator").Activate

Window("Calculator").WinButton("C").Click

op1=DataTable.Value("Operand1",dtlocalsheet)

' Call function to click Operand 1

strcut(op1)

Window("Calculator").WinButton(DataTable.Value("Operator",dtlocalsheet)).Click

op2=DataTable.Value("Operand2",dtlocalsheet)

' Call function to click Operand 2

strcut(op2)

Window("Calculator").WinButton("=").Click

res=Window("Calculator").WinEdit("Edit").GetROProperty ("text")

ex_res=DataTable.Value("Expected_Result",dtlocalsheet) & ". "

If res=ex_res Then

reporter.ReportEvent micPass,"Passed","Succesfull" 

else

reporter.ReportEvent micFail,"Failed","Fail"

End If

Next

'Function to access value from data table and click one by one on calculator.

Function strcut(op)

    L=len(op)

For i=1 to L

t=mid(op,i,1)

Window("Calculator").WinButton(t).Click

Next

End Function

L8 - Standard Checkpoint

STEPS

Press Record -> Insert -> Checkpoint -> Standard Checkpoint

Select the object on which Standard checkpoint has to be placed.

A new window will open for “Checkpoint properties”

Here we can select the properties that we want to check.

1. Constant : put some constant value that is the expected value.

2. Parameter : We can parameterize the value also and can select the values from our desired location.

Checkpoint timeout:

At run time QTP will wait for the time that is provided in Checkpoint timeout value if the expected result is not there.

Press Ok, code as below will be generated automatically.

Window("Calculator").WinEdit("Edit").Check CheckPoint("Edit")

We can EDIT the Checkpoint by placing curson on Checkpoint -> Right Click -> Checkpoint properties.

L9 - Text Checkpoint

L13 - Accessibility Checkpoint

Section 508 criteria for Web-based technology and information systems are based on access guidelines generated by Web Accessibility Initiative of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

Accessibility Checkpoints are designed to check areas of any Web site that require special attention according to the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium ) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. They do not necessarily indicate whether the Web site under test conforms to the guidelines.

Accessibility checkpoints can be add to help quickly identify areas of any Web site that may not conform to the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. You can add automatic accessibility checkpoints to each page in website under test, or you can add individual accessibility checkpoints to individual pages or frames.

To insert Accessibility checkpoint
