QTP Question 31: How many types of Actions are there in QTP?

There are three kinds of actions:

non-reusable action—an action that can be called only in the test with which it is stored, and can be called only once.

reusable action—an action that can be called multiple times by the test with which it is stored (the local test) as well as by other tests.

external action—a reusable action stored with another test. External actions are read-only in the calling test, but you can choose to use a local, editable copy of the Data Table information for the external action

QTP Question 29: What are the properties you would use for identifying a browser and page when using descriptive programming?

“name” would be another property apart from “title” that we can use. OR We can also use the property “micClass”. ex: Browser(”micClass:=browser”).page(”micClass:=page”)

QTP Question 28: Explain the concept of object repository & how QTP recognises objects?

Object Repository: displays a tree of all objects in the current component or in the current action or entire test( depending on the object repository mode you selected). we can view or modify the test object description of any test object in the repository or to add new objects to the repository.

Quicktest learns the default property values and determines in which test object class it fits. If it is not enough it adds assistive properties, one by one to the description until it has compiled the unique description. If no assistive properties are available, then it adds a special Ordinal identifier such as objects location onthe page or in the source code.
