What is custom checkpoint?

custom checkpoints are different from normal available Checkpoints in QTP. Custom checkpoints are used to compare the dynamic exact values from the Application to the expected values to decide the application correctness.

You use a custom CHECKPOINT to:

  • Verify dynamic values in the Test using output Parameters.
  • Validate the test outcome as acceptable or unacceptable by using a conditional
    statement.
  • Add a REPORTEVENT to Report if the test outcome is acceptable.
