FRAMEWORKS IN QTP

Framework:

                   Framework is a generic work (outline work) or a set of guidelines designed by an expert to perform a task in an effective, efficient and optimized way

Types of frame works: - (Mainly)

1.    Linear frame work

2.    Modular frame work

3.    Key-word driven frame work

4.    Hybrid frame work

5.    Data frame work

1.    Linear Framework

·         Generate the basic test

·         Enhance the test

·         Debug the test

·         Execute the test

·         Analyze the test

2.    Modular Framework:

·         Develop the individual components for each and every task

·         Make them as reusable components

·         Prepare the required drivers based on the end to end scenarios

·         Execute the drivers

·         Analyze the result

3.      Key word driven framework:

·         Create the folder structure as follows

·         Crate the required test data file and save them in the corresponding folders

·         Create the required shared repository files and save them in the corresponding folder

·         Create the required library files and save them in the corresponding folder

·         Create the required environment files and save them in the corresponding folder

·         Create the required recovery files and save them in the corresponding folder

·         Open the main test and associate all the required files to each

·         Develop the script in such a weather it executes based on the key words specified in the data table

Example:

                   Var= data table (“keys”,1)

Select case var

Case “L1”

Login( )

Ins ord( )

Logout( )

Case”L2”

Openord( )

Logout( )

Case “L3”

Login( )

Logout( )

End select

·         Specify the desired key words under the corresponding column in the data table and save the test in the corresponding folder
