QTP Keyword Driven Testing


First of all – Why is QTP Testing needed? And then Why is QTP Keyword driven testing important at all? The main advantage of KDT (Keyword driven testing) is its low cost for maintenance. If there is a change to the test case, only the test case file needs to be changed and the startup and driver scripts don’t even need to change. Result – Quicker turnaround and less cost. To know what all components and files are present in QTP testing – let us take a look at it in more detail.

The basic components of QTP Keyword driven testing framework are the control file, the test cases file, the startup script, the driver script and the utility script. The control file is the key of the Keyword driven testing approach and contains the list of all the test cases which need to be executed. Test cases file contains the detailed steps in which order a test case needs to be executed. The startup script executes the first step and initiates the sequence. Driver scripts read checks for the presence of keywords and calls the specific utility scripts for specific functions.

Software QA Testing is an essential part of software development life cycle since it lets you measure your software quality. Without testing, there is no way to verify that whether your software works correctly or not.
