what is a file system object in QTP..

Answer / sreeprasad

File System is used to create file through scripting.We can

read, write and save data in txt file and use it after

wards during testing. Here is example of creating txt file

through FSO

Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2

Dim fso, MyFile

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set MyFile = fso.OpenTextFile("c:testfile.txt",

ForWriting, True)

MyFile.WriteLine "Hello world!"

MyFile.WriteLine "The quick brown fox"

MyFile.Close

Set MyFile = fso.OpenTextFile("c:testfile.txt",

ForReading)

ReadLineTextFile = MyFile.ReadLine ' Returns "Hello

world!"

It will create testfile.txt and enter "This is a test" in

that text file. You can later read that line "This is a

test" from this file while using

MyFile.ReadLine

We can save variables data during testing and then use that

data in future instances of testing and then delete that

file.

Answer / bala

In simple terms "Filesystemobject" is an object model which
is used to handle the drives, folders, and files of a
system or server.

If an user needs to work Driver, Folder, Files properties,
methods or events then the first step he need to setup is
filesystemobject.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need an example.

but
layer1---F.S.O--------layer3
