Running a test in QTP

Here you will run the test you recorded.
1) Start QuickTest and open the Recording test.
If QuickTest is not already open, choose Start > Programs > QuickTest Professional > QuickTest Professional.
· If the Welcome window opens, click Open Existing.
· If QuickTest opens without displaying the Welcome window, choose File > Open
or click the Open button.
In the Open Test dialog box, locate and select the Recording test, then click Open.

2) Confirm that all images are saved to the test results.
QuickTest allows you to determine when to save images to the test results. In this lesson, all images should be saved to the test results.

Choose Tools > Options and select the Run tab. In the Save step screen capture to test results option, select always.

Click OK to close the Options dialog box.

3) Start running your test.
Click Run or choose Test > Run. The Run dialog box opens.
Select New run results folder. Accept the default results folder name.
Click OK to close the Run dialog box.
Watch carefully as QuickTest opens your browser and starts running the test. In the browser, you can see QuickTest perform each step you recorded; a yellow arrow in the left margin of the test tree indicates the step that QuickTest is running.
