Hi All,
Can any one pls tell me what exactly the meaning of Installation Testing. For example if i want to test the installation of a new software. What are all steps need to follow.

For instance, if you have a .exe file. Installation testing would be whether you are able to install it properly on various platforms (this software supports).
With QTP I am not sure you can test this though. (As to my knowledge).
You can run a .exe file though.
Hope it helps you.

Why not ? I'm doing installation software testing almost 2 year. Course there are a lot of problems with testing with QTP but it works.
1. I run installation package and wait for setup finishes
2. Verify all neseccary files on HD after installing in accordance with requirements
3. Test registry keys
4. Run all applications after installaltion
5. Do reinstall, uninstall and so on.
All i do with QTP.
