IMP POINTS FOR SOFTWARE TESTERS

1) Count, how many Buttons and Edit boxes available in Flight Reservation main window.

SystemUtil.Run PATH OF THE APPLICATION

     Dialog("Login").Activate

   Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Agent Name:").Set "akhilreddy"

     Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Password:").Set "mercury"

    Dialog("Login").WinButton("OK").Click

   Set Desc = Description.Create()

    Desc("micclass").Value = "WinButton"

 Set Buttons = Window("text:=Flight Reservation").ChildObjects (Desc)

 Num_Buttons = Buttons.Count()

Set Desc1=Description.Create()

 Desc1("micclass").Value="WinEdit"

 Set Editboxes=Window("text:=Flight Reservation").ChildObjects (Desc1)

 Num_Editboxes= editboxes.count ()

sum= Num_Buttons+Num_Editboxes

 Reporter.ReportEvent 2, "Res","Total Buttons: "& Num_Buttons &"Total Edit boxes: "& Num_Editboxes

2) Count all opened Browsers on desktop and close all?

Set Desc = Description.Create()

    Desc("micclass").Value = "Browser"

     Set Browsers =Desktop.ChildObjects (Desc)

    NumberofBrowsers = Browsers.Count()

    Reporter.ReportEvent 2,"Res","Number of Browsers are: "&NumberOfBrowsers

    For Counter=0 to NumberofBrowsers-1

     Browsers(Counter).Close

     Next

3) Create an Excel file, enter some data and save the file through VB scripting?

Dim objexcel

    Set objExcel = createobject("Excel.application")

    objexcel.Visible = True

     objexcel.Workbooks.add

     objexcel.Cells(1, 1).Value = "akhil is a good boy"

     objexcel.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs("f:\exceltest.xls")

     objexcel.Quit

4) Get Test Data from a Flat file and use in Data Driven Testing (through Scripting)

Dim fso,myfile

      Set fso=createobject("scripting.filesystemobject")

    Set myfile= fso.opentextfile ("f:\anyxl file.xls",1)

      myfile.skipline

      While myfile.atendofline <> True

      x=myfile.readline

      s=split (x, ",")

      SystemUtil.Run "C:\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Professional\samples\flight\app\flight4a.exe"

  Dialog("text:=Login").Activate

Dialog("text:=login","width:=320").winedit("attached text:= Agent Name:").set"akhil"

Dialog("text:=login").winedit("attachedtext:=password:").setsecure"mercury"

Dialog ("text:=login").winbutton("text:=ok").click

Window("Flight Reservation").Close

wend

Checking weather the File is available or not, if not creating the File

strDirectory="E:\"

strFile="aaa.xls"

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

If objFSO.FileExists(strDirectory & strFile) Then

Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strDirectory)

Else

Set objFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile("E:\aaa1.xls")

End if

7) Creating a Flat File

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set objFile=objFSO.CreateTextFile("E:\akhil.txt")

DELETE A FLAT FILE

Set objFSO=createobject("Scripting.filesystemobject")

Set txtFilepath = objFSO.GetFile("E:\AKHIL.txt")

txtFilepath.Delete()

vb script

 

• VBScript is a scripting language.
• A scripting language is a lightweight programming language.
• VBScript is a light version of Microsoft's programming language Visual Basic.

2.0 Comments

The comment argument is the text of any comment we want to include.
2.0 Purpose of comments:

o   We can use comments for making the script understandable.

o   We can use comments for making one or more statements disable from execution.

2.1 Syntax

Rem comment (After the Rem keyword, a space is required before comment.)

Or

            Apostrophe (') symbol before the comment

2.2 Comment/Uncomment a block of statements

• Select block of statement and use short cut key Ctrl + M (for comment)
• Select comment block and use short cut key Ctrl + Shift + M (for uncomment)

                                                                                                                             

VARIABLE: It is a name given to a memory location, which can hold a value and that can be changed any number of times in future if required.

Adv:  Reusability & easy to maintain (future updations are easy) .

 NOTE: always use meaningful names.

Syntax: Datatype variablename;

CONSTANT: It is a name given to a memory location, which can hold a value that can’t be changed in future.

Syntax:  final Datatype constantname=value;             if…. else

CONDITIONAL STATEMENTS :( decision making statements)

In java we have two types of conditional statements.

If …else

Switch… case

IF--- ELSE: whenever we want to execute one block of statements

 among two blocks then we can use If..Else.

 Syntax: if(condition) {     block of stmts1       } else { block of stmts2 }

Note : condition is true then block of stmts1 will be executed

Switch…case: Whenever we want to execute a particular block of statements among many blocks then we will choose switch case statement.

 Syntax: switch(choice) {

case “c1”:

 block1

                        break;          

case “c2”:

                        block 2

                        break;

            -----------

            Default: ------ // not mandatory

}

LOOPING STATEMENTS: Looping statements are used for executing a certain block of statements repeatedly and continuously for some number of times.

in java we have 3 types of looping statements

for loop

while loop

do…while loop

for loop: whenever we clearly know how many no of times the block should be repeated then use for loop.

syntax : for(initiation ;condition ;improvement)

            { 

---------------- block of stmts

 }

While loop: It is used for executing a block of statements repeatedly as long as the condition is being satisfied.

Syntax: while( condition) 

            { ------- block of stmts

            }

do---- while loop: It is used for executing a block of statements repeatedly as long as the condition is being satisfied, but first time execution will be done without checking the condition.

Syntax:  do {

 -------------block of stmts

}  while(condition) ;

ARRAYS:  Array is a special type of variable which can hold multiple values.

in java we have the following types of arrays

single Dimensional array

multi Dimensional array

object array
