How Quick Test works with Objects?

What are Object Properties?
A set of characteristics that defines an object’s appearance, values, state and identity in an application.
QTP captures these object properties during recording.

Logical Name – Logical name is a value QuickTest usually takes from one of the object properties (like TEXT) to refer to the object in the recorded script.

Object Repository


What is Object Repository?

Object Repository is a location within the test structure where QuickTest stores object information captured during recording.

The Object Repository can be used to:
  • Rename logical names for readability.
  • Add a new object in the repository.
  • Configure the object properties used to identify an object.

  • The Object Repository can be Per Action or Shared.
  • The shared repository can be used by multiple actions of the same test or by actions from different tests. Test object properties are prone to frequent updation.
  • Per Action object repository is used by one or very few tests.Test object properties are modified less frequently.
