Validating Password field

[John087]

Hi, I am brand new to QTP and I would like to know how to validate the password field using QTP. The password field has the following constraints:

Password can contain 6 to 12 characters
Must be a combination of at least 3 of the below conditions
1. Lower Case
2. Upper Case
3. Numerics
4. Special Characters like (@#$%^&*-)

Example: Password123, P@12346, pass@123 etc. etc.

Would be great if you can help me out.

Thank You

Hi,

You need to use regular expression for that.Try the below one.

Code:

Set RegEx = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")  'Create Object
RegEx.Pattern = "^(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[[@#$^&*_-]).{6,12}" 'Set the pattern
strResult=RegEx.Test(strText) 'Test string,Replace strText with ur pwd
If strResult=False Then
msgbox "Invalid Password"
Else
msgbox "Valid Password"
End If
Set RegEx =Nothing
