What is the exact difference between QTP and RFT ?

Answer Posted / bfakruddin

QTP - started by Mercury and taken over by HP
RFT - started by Rational and taken over by IBM

QTP has only one platform to develop scripts only in VBScript
RFT has two platforms - Visual Studio and Eclipse to develop
scripts in VB and Java respectively.

QTP - Object Identification differs with RFT, in RFT object
identification is on OOPS concept.

QTP uses lite weight scripting language. RFT uses powerful
language Java.

QTP has more inbuilt functionalities to overcome runtime
issues, in RFT we has to use more programming to resolve
some runtime issues.

RFT doesn't have Actions concept which is very useful
feature available in QTP.

QTP has descriptive programming feature. difficult to
develop program in RFT.

many differences between them. I prefer QTP to automate
which is very userfriendly.

QTP 11 has more advantages and beautiful features which are
not available in RFT.
