I didn't know anything about business components (I had heard of them - that's all), so I read a little about them. Now I know very slightly more than zero.
If I understand correctly, with business components you the tech person basically has QTP learn the page(s) to create objects in a repository. Then the business person basically builds a test plan by using these objects - I guess dragging-and-dropping them into the test plan. Somehow (I don't know how this part works) the business steps and objects get connected to functions that the technical person created. Is that right?
So how are the way business components are used different, conceptually, than creating global actions in a script?
Can the business-oriented person writing the test plan do IFs, handle erorrs, etc? or is all that supposed to be done in the functions the developer writes?
I'd like to know more about the business component idea. It sounds like it has possibilities.
