What is QTP?
Posted By Lax on January 25th, 2009 in QTP Lessons
QTP stands for: Quick Test Professional,which is an automated functional Graphical User Interface (GUI) testing tool created by Mercury Interactive and take over by HP.
QTP is a functional Regression testing tool which uses VB Script as the scripting language.As part of a functional test suite, it works together with Mercury Interactive Win Runner and HP Quality Center and supports enterprise Quality Assurance.
QTP License Models:
Three types of licenses are available from HP:
- Demo License: a 14-day demo license
- seat license: permanent seat license that is specific to the computer on which it is installed.
- Floating (Concurrent): Floating allows a license to be shared between machines at any given point in time. (1 floating license allows QTP to be accessible from an entire lab’s worth of PCs but can only have 1 instance Running at any given point in time).
QTP is a record and play back tool,which will record the user Actions on the Application under test (UAT) and imitate the user while running the recorded steps.

@ Hemika,
As far as testing web applications using QTP is concerned, we are posting it in couple of days with the step by step along with screen shots too.
Regarding Test Director,
1) you need integrate the test director with your QTP
2) Save your scripts in TD from your QTP
3) Open TD and select your desired test case and click on run from TD
4) If it is QTP installed machine, TD will automatically opens the TD and run the test case.
