We can go for descriptive programming in the following
situations
1).When application under test (AUT) is not ready.But if we
the objects and their properties then we can prepare the script
2).If same type of objects present in multiple pages then it
is difficult to maintain object repository then also we can
go for descriptive programming

4)we can improve performance if we use DP instead of using OR

Answer / siva

We no need to depend on OR.
we will write the property and values in the script
statements it self. so that qtp will identify based on that
properties. no need to depend on OR

ex: window("flightreservation")winedit("userid").set "siva"
with the above example it will go to identify the userid
edit box using OR

and where as in Discriptive programming.

window("attachedtext:flightreservation")winedit
("attachedtext:userid",.......(no of values to
identify).set"siva"

Answer / haribabu

hai siva

window("attachedtext:=flightreservation")winedit
("attachedtext:=userid",.......(no of values to
identify).set"siva"


this is correct script
if you want any dout
make a call i will explain

Answer / shamsher singh

There is 2 methods 1 using Object repository . 2 using
Descriptive programming.

In descriptive programming we can create own COM object and
use them in application.

Answer / ram.polavarapu

-descriptive programming is used to find more similar objects.
-there is no object repository for descriptive scripting so
size of the script is less executing is fast.
ex->
print the all links in Google page

dim link
set link=description.create
link("micclass").value="Link"
set a=browser("").page("").childobjects(link)
for i=0 to a.count-1
s=a(i).getroproperty("text")
print s
next

Answer / krishna

You dont have to use the Object repository.

u can write scripts using the Scenarios,u dont have to wait
for the application to come.

when i add the items to the repositry, the item is loading is "winmenu", but wn i write the script the tool is not able to recognise the item, i know that we need to define the mandatory or assitive properties here, but i am confused wt i need to difine here and on wt basis i need to select the properties and define it, can any one help me out on this.
