Winrunner Interview Questions and Answers
What is the use of Test Director software?
TestDirector is Mercury Interactive’s software test
management tool. It helps quality assurance personnel
plan and organize the testing process. With TestDirector
you can create a database of manual and automated tests,
build test cycles, run tests, and report and track
defects. You can also create reports and graphs to help
review the progress of planning tests, running tests,
and tracking defects before a software release.
Have you integrated your automated scripts from
TestDirector?
When you work with WinRunner, you can choose to save
your tests directly to your TestDirector database or
while creating a test case in the TestDirector we can
specify whether the script in automated or manual. And
if it is automated script then TestDirector will build a
skeleton for the script that can be later modified into
one which could be used to test the AUT.
What are the different modes of recording?
There are two type of recording in WinRunner.
Context Sensitive recording records the
operations you perform on your application by
identifying Graphical User Interface (GUI) objects.
Analog recording records keyboard input, mouse
clicks, and the precise x- and y-coordinates traveled by
the mouse pointer across the screen.
What is the purpose of loading WinRunner Add-Ins?
Add-Ins are used in WinRunner to load functions
specific to the particular add-in to the memory. While
creating a script only those functions in the add-in
selected will be listed in the function generator and
while executing the script only those functions in the
loaded add-in will be executed else WinRunner will give
an error message saying it does not recognize the
function.
What are the reasons that WinRunner fails to identify an
object on the GUI?
WinRunner fails to identify an object in a GUI due to
various reasons. The object is not a standard windows
object. If the browser used is not compatible with the
WinRunner version, GUI Map Editor will not be able to
learn any of the objects displayed in the browser
window.
What is meant by the logical name of the object?
An object’s logical name is determined by its class.
In most cases, the logical name is the label that
appears on an object.
If the object does not have a name then what will be the
logical name?
If the object does not have a name then the logical
name could be the attached text.
What is the different between GUI map and GUI map files?
The GUI map is actually the sum of one or more GUI
map files. There are two modes for organizing GUI map
files. Global GUI Map file: a single GUI Map file for
the entire application. GUI Map File per Test: WinRunner
automatically creates a GUI Map file for each test
created.
GUI Map file is a file which contains the windows and
the objects learned by the WinRunner with its logical
name and their physical description.
How do you view the contents of the GUI map?
GUI Map editor displays the content of a GUI Map. We
can invoke GUI Map Editor from the Tools Menu in
WinRunner. The GUI Map Editor displays the various GUI
Map files created and the windows and objects learned in
to them with their logical name and physical
description.
When you create GUI map do you record all the objects of
specific objects?
If we are learning a window then WinRunner
automatically learns all the objects in the window else
we will we identifying those object, which are to be
learned in a window, since we will be working with only
those objects while creating scripts.
