Problem: Replay QTP 9.5 script with Firefox 2 / 3

[QADBA]

Hi,

i've recorded some scripts with IE and i want to replay the scripts in Firefox, but that doesn't work. I use QTP 9.5 and Firefox 2.0.16 and 3.0.1 are installed. I also installed the plugins for FF 2 and 3.

If i want Firefox 3 to replay the script, QTP shows following error: "Unable to launch the browser. The specified browser is not instlled."
But the browser is definitely installed, including the plugin.
If i check installed addons in Firefox 3, it shows me that QuickTest Professional 9.5 PlugIn 9.5 is installed, but incompatible and therefor deactivated.

If i want Firefox 2 to replay the script, QTP starts running, but nothing works. Every test failures.
If i check installed addons in Firefox 2, it shows me that no addon with the name "QuickTest Professional 9.5 PlugIn 9.5" is installed.

Can someone help me, please?
Why Firefox 2 doesn't recognize the QTP 9.5 plugin?

I solved one problem. Firefox 2 now recognizes the plugin.

But the other problem still remains.
If i want Firefox 2 to replay the script, QTP starts running, but nothing works. Every test failures.

Hello @all,

anyone here, who knows how to install the Firefox plugin for QTP?
Seaching forums/help/documentation has not proved satisfactory.

So i tried to install the plugin, but nothing seems to work.

On XP with Firefox 2 the plugin is recognized, but the script failures on every line.
On XP with Firefox 3.0.1 the plugin is recognized, but it is deactivated because it is incompatible.

On Vista with Firefox 3.0 the plugin is installed on the same way, but Firefox doesn't recognize the plugin.

So i'm not able to replay the recorded scripts with Firefox.
Is it because of the plugin-installation?

Thanks in advance,
QADBA

Hi,

As far as i concerned, it works fine with QTP 9.2 and firefox 2.

I recorded below script in IE6 and ran the script in firefox. It worked fine.

Code:

Browser("Browser").Page("Yahoo! Mail: The best").WebEdit("login").Set "xyx"
Browser("Browser").Page("Yahoo! Mail: The best").WebEdit("passwd").SetSecure "abc"
Browser("Browser").Page("Yahoo! Mail: The best").WebButton("Sign In").Click
Browser("Browser").Page("(4 unread) Yahoo! Mail").Link("Inbox (4)").Click
Browser("Browser").Page("Inbox (4) - Yahoo! Mail").Link("Urgent Requirement:LOAD")

If the same is not working in QTP 9.5 firefox 3, then both are not compatable or might be an issue in QTP95.

Regards,
Uday

It works great in IE 7 but not in FF.
