Analyzing Test Results & Reporting

Analyzing the Test Result is not a responsibility of QTP. After Running Tests, User (Test Engineer) has to analyze the test result. and send defect reports.

QTP Result Window:

After Running/Executing a test, then QTP Provide result window. we export test result from result window in Document (.Doc), HTML, XML and PDF formats.

Status of the Result:

QTP has 4 types of result status

a) Pass
b) Fail
c) Done
d) Warning

Defining our own Result:

Generally QTP provides, test results, if we use qtp tool features like checkpoints. suppose if we use flow control statements (conditional and Loop statements), then we have to define our own result.

For defining our own results, QTP is providing an utility object called "Reporter"

by using reporter, we can define our own results.
