Descriptive Programming
Background
Quick Test Professional (QTP) while recording stores all the properties required to define
web objects in its object repository. When the script is run the object repository is used to
identify the objects in the application.
When an operation is recorded on an object, Quick Test Professional adds the appropriate
test object to the object repository along with its properties. Once the object along with its
property is added in the object repository, statements can be added in the Expert View of
the tool to perform additional methods/functions on the added object.
The statements are added usually by entering the name (not case sensitive) of each of the
objects in the object's hierarchy as the object description, and then add the appropriate
method.
Concept of Descriptive Programming

Instructing Quick Test Professional to perform methods on objects without referring to
the object repository or to the object's name is done using descriptive programming.
By providing Quick Test Professional with a list of properties and values that are required
identify the object or objects in an application one can perform any desired
method/function using these objects.
Such a programmatic description is very useful while performing an operation on an
object that is not stored in the object repository to perform the same operation on several
objects with certain identical properties or to perform an operation on an object whose
properties change dynamically during every run.
Why Descriptive Programming based scripting framework

Following are the advantages of Descriptive Programming based framework
Script independent of Object Repository makes it more robust.

Reduces rework in an environment where object properties change regularly.
Reduces Test Case preparation time after a generic code is created.
Generic code can be used for any kind of Web Application which increases
reusability.
Single script is used for test case preparation : single script, multiple usage

Application failures can be accurately identified.
Condition based testing Captures hidden controls on the application which are
visible on the fulfillment of certain criteria thereby reducing the count of invalid
defects
Contents on a Web Page

A typical Web Page will have the following class objects
WebList Refers to the dropdown.

WebEdit Refers to the text/edit box.
WebCheckBox Refers to the check box.
WebRadioGroup Refers to the radio button.
WebElement Refers to all the web objects on an HTML page.
Image Refers to an image on the screen.
Link Refers to the hyperlink on the screen.
WebTable Refers to the Web Table on the screen.

Function Library
1.) Common Function
Use
Common Function gets all the objects of a screen along with its properties in an Excel
sheet.
Arguments
Common Function has five arguments
1. excelSheet: The existing sheet in C drive
2. snameBrowser: The name of the Browser
3. stitlePage: The Title of the Page
4. val: The type of control
5. val2: The value of Property HTML tag in case of WebElement otherwise Blank
Code and Explanation

Content of Common Function
Set Obj=Description.create()
Creates an object of Description Class
If val = "WebElement" Then

Obj("micclass").Value = val
Obj("html tag").Value = val2
Set List=Browser("name:="&snameBrowser).Page("title:="&stitlePage).ChildObjects(Obj)
If the Class is WebElement, the object is defined by two properties, micclass and html
tag.
List will contain all the childobjects of type WebElement with the mentioned html tag.
objcount=List.count()
rowCount = excelSheet.UsedRange.Rows.count
Page 4
1/25/2015
258322243.doc
objcount contains the number of childobjects of type WebElement with the mentioned
html tag.
rowcount contains the number of filled (used) rows of the excel sheet.
For j=0 to objcount-1
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "A") = snameBrowser
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "B") = stitlePage
If val2 = "SPAN" Then
arr2=List(j).GetROProperty("html id")
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "F") = arr2
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "D") = arr2
'MyArray = Split(arr2, "_", -1, 1)
'No=Ubound(MyArray)
'excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "D") = MyArray(No)
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "C") = val
arr1=List(j).GetROProperty("innerText")
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "G") = arr1
rowCount = rowCount + 1
Else
rr2=List(j).GetROProperty("innerhtml")
'MyArray = Split(arr2, ",", -1, 1)
'No=Ubound(MyArray)
'excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "D") = MyArray(No)
End if
Next
Populates the excelSheet with controls, properties value i.e identifier

If the value of Html tag is SPAN then get value of the html id and populate it in
excelSheet into column F
Splitting the html id with _ as separator and storing the last part of the html id into
column D
Populate the column C with WebElement
Populate the column G with the value of innerText
Otherwise
Get the value of innerhtml and populate it in column F and column D
Split the value of innerhtml separated by comma and last portion of the value into
columnD
Populate the column C with WebElement
Page 5
1/25/2015
258322243.doc
Else
Obj("micclass").Value = val
Set List =Browser("name:="&snameBrowser).Page("title:="&stitlePage).ChildObjects(Obj)
arr1=List(j).GetROProperty("Name")
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "E") = arr1
MyArray = Split(arr1, "$", -1, 1)
No=Ubound(MyArray)
excelSheet.Cells(rowCount + 1 , "D") = MyArray(No)
arr3=List(j).GetROProperty("value")
If val = "Image" Then
End If
If val = "WebRadioGroup" Then
End If
Next
End if
End Function
For Classes other than WebElement,

Set the property of the object Obj as micclass and assign it the value which is passed
into the function
Get the value of html id and the name of all the child objects of object Obj and populate it
into column F and E
Split the name values separated by $ and populate the column D with the last portion
of the name values
If the micclass value of object Obj is WebRadioGroup, populate the column G with
the value of the Property value.
2.) Search Function

Use
Search Function searches the identifier from the Excelsheet
Page 6
1/25/2015
258322243.doc
Arguments
One argument is passed in this function.
excelSheet: The existing sheet in the C: drive

Function Search (excelSheet)
Variables
Dim X, XL, Row, iRow , xRow, T, Bname, Ptitle
X: It is used to store the value of field from the datatable

XL: It is used to store the cell value of column D from excelSheet
Row: Row contains the count of the used row or filled rows in the excelSheet
iRow: iRow is used for searching the row which contains the specified datatable field in
excelSheet
T: T is used for storing the value of the Type column of the datatable
vRow: vRow is used to store the value of the vRow column of the datatable, controls the
flow of the script, It acts as a Handler of the script
vRow = DataTable.Value("vRow", dtGlobalSheet)
DataTable.SetCurrentRow(vRow+1)
T = Datatable.Value("Type", dtglobalSheet)
Stores the value of Column Type of the datatable

If T = "Next" Then
wait 5
Call NextScreen(excelSheet)
vRow = vRow + 1
End If
Next is used for identifying the navigated screen and populating the excelSheet with all
the objects and its properties.
When T = Next, NextScreen(excelSheet) function is called.
NextScreen is used for identifying the navigated screen and populating the excelSheet
with all the objects and its properties.
Page 7

258322243.doc
NextScreen function has been discussed in detail later.

If T = "CheckPoint" Then
Dim oinf, inf
inf = DataTable.Value("Otherinfo", dtglobalSheet)
oinf = Split(inf, ",", -1, 1)
Call Common (excelSheet, oinf(0), oinf(0), "WebElement", oinf(1))
Row = excelSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
End If
For T = Checkpoint, Otherinfo field in the datatable of the script provides the browser
name and the html tag of the Web Element which needs to be checked.
Browser Name and HTML Tag is retrieved using the split command where the
delimiter/splitter is ,
This browser name and HTML tag along with the Page Title* is passed in the common
function.
*Page Title is same as browser name in the current application. If it changes then
Otherinfo will have Browser Name, Page Title, HTML Tag. Arguments in the Common
Function will be changed to the following in the above case.
Call Common (excelSheet, oinf(0), oinf(1), "WebElement", oinf(2))
XL = excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "D")
Do Until (X = XL or iRow = Row)
iRow = iRow + 1
Loop
Initially iRow=2
Keep iterating, until X=XL or iRow=Row ie keep iterating through the loop until the field
value from datatable is matched with that of the excelSheet or iRow is equal to the last
row count of the excel sheet.
Increment iRow value by one in each iteration.
Exit from the loop gives the row no containing the field
Datatable.Value("Browser", dtglobalSheet) = excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "A")
Get the Browser name on the Row Number as iRow

If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "WebList" Then
Prp = excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "F")
End If
If the column C of iRow is WebList,

Store the value of column F of iRow into variable Prp
Page 8
1/25/2015
258322243.doc
If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "WebEdit" Then
If DataTable.Value("Otherinfo", dtGlobalSheet) = "Check" Then
Prp = excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "G")
Else
End if
End If
If the column C of iRow is WebEdit

Validate the value of Otherinfo in datatable if the value is Check then store the value of
column G of iRow into variable Prp else store the value of column F of iRow into
variable Prp.
If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "Image" Then
End If
If the column C of iRow is Image

If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "WebRadioGroup" Then
MyString = excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "F")
Prp = MyString
End if
If the column C of iRow is WebRadioGroup

If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "Link" Then

Prp = excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "E")
End If
If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "WebElement" Then
Call ClearCell(excelSheet, "WebElement")
End If
If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "WebCheckBox" Then
End If
If excelSheet.Cells(iRow, "C") = "WebTable" Then
End If
Similarly for other controls

Search = Prp
vRow = vRow + 1
Page 9
