Explain about Table and DB Checkpoints?

Answer Posted / ramyab.mca@gmail.com

Hai.....

Table and DB Checkpoints: By adding table checkpoints to
your tests or components, you can check that a specified
value is displayed in a cell in a table on your
application. By adding database checkpoints to your tests
or components, you can check the contents of databases
accessed by your application.

The results displayed for table and database checkpoints
are similar. When you run your test or component, QuickTest
compares the expected results of the checkpoint to the
actual results of the run session. If the results do not
match, the checkpoint fails.

You can check that a specified value is displayed in a cell
in a table by adding a table checkpoint to your test or
component. For ActiveX tables, you can also check the
properties of the table object. To add a table checkpoint,
you use the Checkpoint Properties dialog box.

Table checkpoints are supported for Web and ActiveX
applications, as well as for a variety of external add-in
environments.

You can use database checkpoints in your test or component
to check databases accessed by your Web site or application
and to detect defects. You define a query on your database,
and then you create a database checkpoint that checks the
results of the query.

Database checkpoints are supported for all environments
supported by QuickTest, by default, as well as for a
variety of external add-in environments.

There are two ways to define a database query:

- Use Microsoft Query. You can install Microsoft Query from
the custom installation of Microsoft Office.
- Manually define an SQL statement.

The Checkpoint timeout option is available only when
creating a table checkpoint. It is not available when
creating a database checkpoint.

K,Byeeee...
