Query about checkpoints

[pkdhake]

Can we create checkpoints using descriptive programming?

[ravi.gajul]

Though built in check points are very usefull there are few limitations:

1. They do not support programmatic descriptions
   
2. They only support one condition to pass or fail.
   
3. They have limited reporting capacity.
   

However, we can define custom check points by checking whether or not the test object is available in application under test.This can be achieved in two ways.

1. Using .Exist
   
2. Using .ChildObjects.
   

.Exist returns a boolean value depending on the existence of the object
.ChildObjects ensures the existence of an object by counting the number of instances of an object.

Hope this helps

other than the options mentioned above we cannot write code for checkpoints. It is must to click on record button in qtp and insert checkpoint statement
