What is contained in the GUI map? - a) WinRunner stores information it learns about a window or object in a GUI Map. When WinRunner runs a test, it uses the GUI map to locate objects. It reads an object’s description in the GUI map and then looks for an object with the same properties in the application being tested. Each of these objects in the GUI Map file will be having a logical name and a physical description.b) There are 2 types of GUI Map files.i.Global GUI Map file: a single GUI Map file for the entire applicationii.GUI Map File per Test: WinRunner automatically creates a GUI Map file for each test created.
How does WinRunner recognize objects on the application? - a) WinRunner uses the GUI Map file to recognize objects on the application. When WinRunner runs a test, it uses the GUI map to locate objects. It reads an object’s description in the GUI map and then looks for an object with the same properties in the application being tested.
Have you created test scripts and what is contained in the test scripts? - a) Yes I have created test scripts. It contains the statement in Mercury Interactive’s Test Script Language (TSL). These statements appear as a test script in a test window. You can then enhance your recorded test script, either by typing in additional TSL functions and programming elements or by using WinRunner’s visual programming tool, the Function Generator.
How does WinRunner evaluates test results? - a) Following each test run, WinRunner displays the results in a report. The report details all the major events that occurred during the run, such as checkpoints, error messages, system messages, or user messages. If mismatches are detected at checkpoints during the test run, you can view the expected results and the actual results from the Test Results window.
Have you performed debugging of the scripts? - a) Yes, I have performed debugging of scripts. We can debug the script by executing the script in the debug mode. We can also debug script using the Step, Step Into, Step out functionalities provided by the WinRunner.
How do you run your test scripts? - a) We run tests in Verify mode to test your application. Each time WinRunner encounters a checkpoint in the test script, it compares the current data of the application being tested to the expected data captured earlier. If any mismatches are found, WinRunner captures them as actual results.
How do you analyze results and report the defects? - a) Following each test run, WinRunner displays the results in a report. The report details all the major events that occurred during the run, such as checkpoints, error messages, system messages, or user messages. If mismatches are detected at checkpoints during the test run, you can view the expected results and the actual results from the Test Results window. If a test run fails due to a defect in the application being tested, you can report information about the defect directly from the Test Results window. This information is sent via e-mail to the quality assurance manager, who tracks the defect until it is fixed.
What are the different modes of recording? - a) There are two type of recording in WinRunner.i.Context Sensitive recording records the operations you perform on your application by identifying Graphical User Interface (GUI) objects.ii.Analog recording records keyboard input, mouse clicks, and the precise x- and y-coordinates traveled by the mouse pointer across the screen.
What is the purpose of loading WinRunner Add-Ins? - a) Add-Ins are used in WinRunner to load functions specific to the particular add-in to the memory. While creating a script only those functions in the add-in selected will be listed in the function generator and while executing the script only those functions in the loaded add-in will be executed else WinRunner will give an error message saying it does not recognize the function.
How to modify the logical name or physical description of the object? - Using GUI editor
How Winrunner handles varying window labels? - Using regular expressions
How do you write messages to the report? - report_msg
How you used WinRunner in your project? - Yes, I have been WinRunner for creating automates scripts for GUI, functional and regression testing of the AUT.
Explain WinRunner testing process? - WinRunner testing process involves six main stagesi.Create GUI Map File so that WinRunner can recognize the GUI objects in the application being testedii.Create test scripts by recording, programming, or a combination of both. While recording tests, insert checkpoints where you want to check the response of the application being tested.iiiDebug Test: run tests in Debug mode to make sure they run smoothlyiv.Run Tests: run tests in Verify mode to test your application.v.View Results: determines the success or failure of the tests.vi.Report Defects: If a test run fails due to a defect in the application being tested, you can report information about the defect directly from the Test Results window.
What in contained in the GUI map? - a) WinRunner stores information it learns about a window or object in a GUI Map. When WinRunner runs a test, it uses the GUI map to locate objects. It reads an object’s description in the GUI map and then looks for an object with the same properties in the application being tested. Each of these objects in the GUI Map file will be having a logical name and a physical description.b) There are 2 types of GUI Map files.i.Global GUI Map file: a single GUI Map file for the entire applicationii.GUI Map File per Test: WinRunner automatically creates a GUI Map file for each test created.

Have you performed debugging of the scripts? - a) Yes, I have performed debugging of scripts. We can debug the script by executing the script in the debug mode. We can also debug script using the Step, Step Into, Step out functionalities provided by the WinRunner.
How do you view the contents of the GUI map? - a) GUI Map editor displays the content of a GUI Map. We can invoke GUI Map Editor from the Tools Menu in WinRunner. The GUI Map Editor displays the various GUI Map files created and the windows and objects learned in to them with their logical name and physical description.
When you create GUI map do you record all the objects of specific objects? - a) If we are learning a window then WinRunner automatically learns all the objects in the window else we will we identifying those object, which are to be learned in a window, since we will be working with only those objects while creating scripts.
What is the purpose of set_window command? - a) Set_Window command sets the focus to the specified window. We use this command to set the focus to the required window before executing tests on a particular window.Syntax: set_window(, time);The logical name is the logical name of the window and time is the time the execution has to wait till it gets the given window into focus.
How do you load GUI map? - a) We can load a GUI Map by using the GUI_load command.Syntax: GUI_load();
What is the disadvantage of loading the GUI maps through start up scripts? - a) If we are using a single GUI Map file for the entire AUT then the memory used by the GUI Map may be much high.b) If there is any change in the object being learned then WinRunner will not be able to recognize the object, as it is not in the GUI Map file loaded in the memory. So we will have to learn the object again and update the GUI File and reload it.
How do you unload the GUI map? - a) We can use GUI_close to unload a specific GUI Map file or else we call use GUI_close_all command to unload all the GUI Map files loaded in the memory.Syntax: GUI_close(); or GUI_close_all;
What actually happens when you load GUI map? - a) When we load a GUI Map file, the information about the windows and the objects with their logical names and physical description are loaded into memory. So when the WinRunner executes a script on a particular window, it can identify the objects using this information loaded in the memory.
What is the purpose of the temp GUI map file? - a) While recording a script, WinRunner learns objects and windows by itself. This is actually stored into the temporary GUI Map file. We can specify whether we have to load this temporary GUI Map file should be loaded each time in the General Options.
What is the extension of gui map file? - a) The extension for a GUI Map file is “.guiâ€.
How do you find an object in an GUI map. - a) The GUI Map Editor is been provided with a Find and Show Buttons.i To find a particular object in the GUI Map file in the application, select the object and click the Show window. This blinks the selected object.ii.To find a particular object in a GUI Map file click the Find button, which gives the option to select the object. When the object is selected, if the object has been learned to the GUI Map file it will be focused in the GUI Map file.
What different actions are performed by find and show button? - a) To find a particular object in the GUI Map file in the application, select the object and click the Show window. This blinks the selected object.b) To find a particular object in a GUI Map file click the Find button, which gives the option to select the object. When the object is selected, if the object has been learned to the GUI Map file it will be focused in the GUI Map file.
How do you identify which files are loaded in the GUI map? - a) The GUI Map Editor has a drop down “GUI File†displaying all the GUI Map files loaded into the memory.
How do you modify the logical name or the physical description of the objects in GUI map? - a) You can modify the logical name or the physical description of an object in a GUI map file using the GUI Map Editor.
When do you feel you need to modify the logical name? - a) Changing the logical name of an object is useful when the assigned logical name is not sufficiently descriptive or is too long.
When it is appropriate to change physical description? - a) Changing the physical description is necessary when the property value of an object changes.
How WinRunner handles varying window labels? - a) We can handle varying window labels using regular expressions. WinRunner uses two “hidden†properties in order to use regular expression in an object’s physical description. These properties are regexp_label and regexp_MSW_class.i.The regexp_label property is used for windows only. It operates “behind the scenes†to insert a regular expression into a window’s label description.ii.The regexp_MSW_class property inserts a regular expression into an object’s MSW_class. It is obligatory for all types of windows and for the object class object.
What is the purpose of regexp_label property and regexp_MSW_class property? - a) The regexp_label property is used for windows only. It operates “behind the scenes†to insert a regular expression into a window’s label description.b) The regexp_MSW_class property inserts a regular expression into an object’s MSW_class. It is obligatory for all types of windows and for the object class object.
How do you suppress a regular expression? - a) We can suppress the regular expression of a window by replacing the regexp_label property with label property.
How do you copy and move objects between different GUI map files? - a) We can copy and move objects between different GUI Map files using the GUI Map Editor. The steps to be followed are:i Choose Tools - GUI Map Editor to open the GUI Map Editor.ii.Choose View - GUI Files.iii.Click Expand in the GUI Map Editor. The dialog box expands to display two GUI map files simultaneously.iv. View a different GUI map file on each side of the dialog box by clicking the file names in the GUI File lists.v.In one file, select the objects you want to copy or move. Use the Shift key and/or Control key to select multiple objects. To select all objects in a GUI map file, choose Edit > Select All.vi.Click Copy or Move.vii.To restore the GUI Map Editor to its original size, click Collapse.
How do you select multiple objects during merging the files? - a) Use the Shift key and/or Control key to select multiple objects. To select all objects in a GUI map file, choose Edit > Select All.
