Requirement Req0003

Req0003 – Scenario Details

Step 1 - The user presses OK, without entering any information

Step 2 A) Popup dialog is displayed. B) Popup title : Flight Reservations C) Message type : Exclamation D) Message text “Please enter agent name”

Step 3 – Close the dialog.

Repository

Process Design – Req0003 First we need a regular invoke application process (

Already done in InvokeApp function ) Then we need to verify that the invoke app process

was done successfully, before accessing the dialog. If the process failed, it means that the 'Login'

dialog was not displayed and hence there’s no point to continue testing.

Then the Req0003 process starts where user leaves all the textboxes blank and hits the [OK] button of 'Login' dialog.

Check if 'Flight Reservation' dialog popped-up - Req0003a

Load the messages repository The expected messages will be stored on an MS-Excel

datasheet. We call that datasheet "Messages Repository"

Test requirements Req0003b to Req0003d Close the pop-up dialog.

Implementing Business Req0003 Open the test busLogin, action busLoginMng Menu : File Open Test

Implementing Business Req0003 Add a new step case “req0003” ( remember to

write the string in lower case )

Implementing Business Req0003 To generate an error message we have to hit the 'OK' button

without entering any data or irrelevant data in 'Login' dialog'. So we need to implement an “OK” click. Business layer ( does not actually execute WinButton.Click )

' ** clicking OK

RunAction "guiLogin [guiLogin]", oneIteration, "OK"

Later, in guiLogin we’re going to actually execute the WinButton( “OK” ).Click action.

Implementing Business Req0003 'OK' click will be implemented in the CheckDialog reusable-

action, so we add just the call to the existing action. Menu : Insert Call to existing action Select Test guiLogin and reusable-action CheckDialog. Remember to use the relative path!!

Relative Path

Business Req0003 – Final Look

Notice that you now have 2 external reusable actions, and 1 internal.

Implementing OK Step

Open the guiLogin test, guiLogin reusable-action. Add the following code. Case "ok" in lowercase.

Case "ok" : Dialog( "Login" ).WinButton( "OK" ).Click

Implementing CheckDialog

Req0003a?

ReportmicFail

popup dialog with title “Flight Reservations” should exist, otherwise test fails and cannot continue.

' ** Checking if dialog exist.

If Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Exist( 1 ) = False Then

Reporter.ReportEvent micFail, Parameter.Item( "MsgId" ), "Dialog was not found."

ExitAction( micFail )

End If

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Activate micLeftBtn

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").CheckProperty "ispopupwindow", True, 1000

If the 'Flight Reservations' dialog exists, we then check if it is a pop-up dialog.

In order to check this we use CheckProperty method of Dialog object.

The property “ispopupwindow” will return True if the dialog is a popup window, else False.

' ** Checking if dialog exist.

If Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Exist( 1 ) = False Then

Reporter.ReportEvent micFail, Parameter( "MsgId" ), "Dialog was not found."

ExitAction( micFail )

End If

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Activate micLeftBtn

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").CheckProperty "ispopupwindow", True, 1000

Loading an existing data source

Load message

Repository

Using OO methodology, we separate data from implementation.

We need to load a message repository. The message repository is an excel datasheet

that holds all the system messages.

Creating an external data source Create the following excel datasheet

Rename to Messages

Creating an external data source

SETTING

Automation

FR.xls

Load messages headers

Select the CheckDialog Data Table in QTP. If you don’t see the CheckDialog Data Table

Menu : View Data Table Right-click the table join cell.

CheckDialog

Select from the popup menu : File Import From file.

CheckDialog

Messages Datasheet

ID – Every message has to have a unique identifier ( id ) for this purpose we'll use the custom format MSGxxxx. i.e MSG0043 ( Message No. 43 )

MsgString – The original string on the popup message box.

IconType – a number representing : 16 : vbCritical 32 : vbQuestion 48 : vbExclamation 64 : vbInformation

Messages Datasheet

TitleString – The original title of the pop-up message.

ButtonId – a number representing : 1 : vbOK 2 : vbCancel 3 : vbAbort 4 : vbRetry 5 : vbIgnore 6 : vbYes 7 : vbNo

CheckDialog Reusable Action

From Menu Edit Action Action Properties

CheckDialog Reusable Action

Add input parameter MsgId.

Insert a new expected message

Loading the datasheet ( Message Repository )

If PathFinder.Locate returns the excel path, then the datasheet will be loaded and replace the local sheet.

Every action in QTP has a "Local Sheet" If the excel file was not found, the action is aborted, not the

script.

'** Loading datasheet

frXls = PathFinder.Locate( "DAT\FR.xls" )

If frXls = vbNullString Then

msg = "FR.xls was not found under DAT folder."

Reporter.ReportEvent micWarning, "Loading Datasheet", msg

ExitAction( micWarning )

End If

DataTable.ImportSheet frXls, "Messages", DataTable.LocalSheet.Name

Find the relevant MsgId

At this point the datasheet is loaded. As we continue testing during the project, we’ll

have more messages. To retrieve the particular message from the

datasheet, we need the row number. How do we get the row number? For this i used a programmatic “trick”.

The action input parameter ( MsgId ) format is always MSGxxxx, where xxxx is a four digit number ( 0001, 0002 ).

The 4 digit number prefixed with "MSG", will be the message id string.

Find the relevant MsgId

' ** Retrieving row number

rowNo = CLng( Mid( Parameter.Item( "MsgId" ), 4 ) )

DataTable.LocalSheet.SetCurrentRow rowNo

Assuming that “MsgId” = “MSG0001” Mid( “MSG0001”, 4 ) “0001”

Now we convert it to subtype long by using CLng function. CLng( “0001” ) 1

The row number is stored in rowNo variable. Then, we set the working row to rowNo, using SetCurrentRow method.

Checking the title string

Req0003b

ReportmicPass

Req0003d

ReportmicPass

Verification

At this point we know, that rowNo is 1, and we set the current row to 1.

Before we start accessing the information from row 1, we need to verify that our pointer is in the right “place”

We need to verify that column 'ID' from the datasheet, row 1, has the same value of Parameter.Item( "MsgId" ), which in this case will be 'MSG0001'.

So if something went wrong ( you forgot to pass the correct parameter, or forgot to add the MSGxxxx in excel ) the script won’t continue, it will stop and report a warning message.

Verification - Implementation

' ** Data verificationIf StrComp( DataTable( "ID", dtLocalSheet ), Parameter.Item( "MsgId" ) ) <> 0 Then

msg = "Message " & Parameter.Item( "MsgId" ) & " was not found."

Reporter.ReportEvent micWarning, "ID", msg

ExitAction( micWarning )

End If

The StrComp function, compares between two string arguments. If the strings are same the return value is 0, otherwise it will be either '-1' or '1'.

For more information please refer to StrComp documentation in QTP help.

The comparison is between the input parameter and the content of ID column.

Checking the title string

' ** Checking title using checkProperty checkpoint

If DataTable( "TitleString", dtLocalSheet ) <> vbNullString Then

With Dialog( "Login" ).Dialog( "FlightReservations" ).

.CheckProperty "title", DataTable( "TitleString", dtLocalSheet ), 1000

End With

End If

The If statement provides flexibility to the reusable action. i.e. what if I don’t want to check the title? : no problem, leave it blank in datasheet.

vbNullString represent an empty string in VBScript. DataTable TitleString is the value in column TitleString.

Checking the message string To check the message string we will use a dynamic

standard checkpoint. Be sure the dialog that contains the text “Please

enter agent name” is displayed. Caution : Only One instance of AUT should be

opened while inserting a checkpoint and recording. Menu : Automation Record Hotkey : F3 Toolbar :

Checking the Message String

The If DataTable statement is required to verify that MsgString column is not empty, in case we want to test it.

' ** Checking message using standard checkpoint

If DataTable( "MsgString", dtLocalSheet ) <> vbNullString Then

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Static("Msg").Check CheckPoint("Msg")

End If

Checking The message Type

The most important part of the checkpoint, is the location within the script in which you will insert it.

After checking the title code line, be sure that the cursor is now on a new blank line, after the MsgString code line.

To start recording, the dialog Login must be displayed.

Caution : Only One instance of AUT should be opened while inserting a checkpoint and recording.

Inserting a bitmap checkpointSelect Bitmap Checkpoint…

Inserting a bitmap checkpoint Select the icon with the finger pointer. In the “Object Selection” dialog, click OK.

Checkpoint timeout

Inserting a bitmap checkpoint

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Static("Icon").Check CheckPoint("Exclamation")

The Checkpoint command line will be added automatically to the code.

After pressing OK

STOP recording!!!

Checking The message Type

We have captured a bitmap for an exclamation message type ( vbExclamation or 48 ).

Message Boxes supports 3 more different types – vbInformation (64), vbQuestion (32) and vbCritical (16).

We need to add all the options* in this checkpoint for future implementations.

Find in the AUT different messages types, to add the bitmap checkpoints.

Don’t forget to change the checkpoint name. *Remark: There's no vbInformation type on

Flight Reservation Application.

Checking The message Type' ** Checking icon using bitmap checkpoint

If DataTable( "IconType", dtLocalSheet ) <> vbNullString Then

Select Case CInt( DataTable( "IconType", dtLocalSheet ) )

Case vbExclamation

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Static("Icon").Check CheckPoint("Exclamation")

Case vbQuestion

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Static("Icon").Check CheckPoint("Question")

Case vbInformation

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Static("Icon").Check CheckPoint("Information")

Case vbCritical

Dialog("Login").Dialog("FlightReservations").Static("Icon").Check CheckPoint("Critical")

Case Else

msg = "invalid IconType argument."

Reporter.ReportEvent micWarning, Environment("ActionName"), msg

End Select

End If

IconType column will have a numeric number or will be empty. After checking that the argument is not empty we convert the

string value “16” to value 16. The conversion is done by the CInt Function.

Checking The message Type We learn to capture the bitmap checkpoint for an

exclamation message type (vbExclamation or 48). There will be 3 more bitmap checkpoints need to covered:

vbInformation ( 64 ), vbQuestion (32) and vbCritical (16). Add the remaining 3 checkpoints as explained. Don’t forget to change the checkpoint name.

There's no vbInformation type on

Flight Reservation Application

vbExclamation vbQuestion vbCritical

Click <buttonId> implementation A standard dialog box can have 7 different

command buttons. Our reusable action will have to “deal” with all 7

types, because it is a generic reusable action. The button we need to press is defined in

buttonId column, which is a constant MsgBox number.

For this implementation we will use Descriptive Programming ( DP ).

Click <buttonId> implementation' ** Clicking the button if required according ButtonId

If DataTable( "ButtonId", dtLocalSheet ) <> vbNullString Then

With Dialog( "Login" ).Dialog( "FlightReservations" )

Select Case CInt( DataTable( "ButtonId", dtLocalSheet ) )

Case vbOK : .WinButton( "text:=OK" ).Click

Case vbCancel : .WinButton( "text:=Cancel" ).Click

Case vbAbort : .WinButton( "text:=Abort" ).Click

Case vbRetry : .WinButton( "text:=Retry" ).Click

Case vbIgnore : .WinButton( "text:=Ignore" ).Click

Case vbYes : .WinButton( "text:=Yes" ).Click

Case vbNo : .WinButton( "text:=No" ).Click

Case Else

msg = "invalid ButtonId argument."

Reporter.ReportEvent micWarning, Environment( "Action Name" ), msg

End With

End If
