Low Level Recording - testingcareers - 04-19-2010
Can any one help me out what exactly is Low Level Recording mode and How to record the objects in Low Level Recording mode.
RE: Low Level Recording - Saket - 04-20-2010
from QTP Help - When working in tests, if you are unable to record on an object in the normal recording mode, or if you want to record mouse clicks and keyboard input with the exact x- and y-coordinates, you can record on those objects using low-level or analog recording.
for more details refer QTP help. the explanation there is sufficient to proceed with.
if you find any issue, let us know.

For example I am using a SAP application and I do not have the Add-In for SAP. Now If I record my SAP application in Low Level Recording mode. Does QTP recognize the SAP objects ?
RE: Low Level Recording - Saket - 04-20-2010
I have not worked with SAP applications, so will not be able to tell you how QTP behaves
I would advise you that it will be better to install SAP Add-in then start working on it.
That way QTP will be able to identify the objects, this is why the add-ins are there.
I dont think Low level recording will solve your issue
RE: Low Level Recording - testingcareers - 04-20-2010
I would like to know exactly the function of Low Level Recording. As per the definition and QTP Help, Low Level Recording is used to record the objects whether or not QTP identifies the object. If this is the case why do we need Add- In's ?
RE: Low Level Recording - Saket - 04-20-2010
We can not perform all the required testing using low level recording, specially in the case when we need to modify or do some changes in the script, i feel that would be difficult. To support objects on different platform QTP requires add-in for the platform. You can use Low level recording when QTP is unable to record on an Object or the environement is supported. Moreover it is preferreable to use when exact mouse and keyboard operations are important in your test.
hope this is clear now.
