how to recognize menu options in dp in qtp

[Ankur]

@Satyavathi, webapp, Rajashekhar:

Here is a sample recording for your reference. Use VB and ActiveX add-in only, since this is a windows based application.

Normal Recording:

Code:

SystemUtil.Run "C:\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Professional\samples\flight\app\flight4a.exe","","C:\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Professional\samples\flight\app\","open"
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Agent Name:").Set "mercury"
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Agent Name:").Type  micTab
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Password:").SetSecure "4791e267c9e855ee42eecb1f216641f320bd96f9"
Dialog("Login").WinButton("OK").Click
Window("Flight Reservation").WinMenu("Menu").Select "File;New Order"
Window("Flight Reservation").WinMenu("Menu").Select "Analysis;Reports..."
Window("Notepad").Close
Window("Flight Reservation").Close

In Descriptive Programming: I have only changed the first line to DP for your understanding. You can change the all the lines and check by yourself.

Code:

SystemUtil.Run "C:\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Professional\samples\flight\app\flight4a.exe","","C:\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Professional\samples\flight\app\","open"
Dialog("text:=Login", "nativeclass:=#32770").WinEdit( "nativeclass:=Edit", "attached text:=Agent Name:").Set "mercury"
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Agent Name:").Type  micTab
Dialog("Login").WinEdit("Password:").SetSecure "4791e267c9e855ee42eecb1f216641f320bd96f9"
Dialog("Login").WinButton("OK").Click
Window("Flight Reservation").WinMenu("Menu").Select "File;New Order"
Window("Flight Reservation").WinMenu("Menu").Select "Analysis;Reports..."
Window("Notepad").Close
Window("Flight Reservation").Close

Both codes above are working fine and there is no problem in recognizing the menu options.

@Rajashekhar: A word of advice-- Use analog/low level recording only when you have no other means left to record application. It can create problems with different screen sizes and monitor resolutions.
