what is syncurnisation point? what is the use of this in real time environment? plz explain?..

Answer / sai sankar

Synchronisation point is used in QTP to give a time map
between the tool and the application. With this feature(SP)
the tool(QTP) waits for the application to be completed for
certain actions (basically internal actions which takes
some time to be completed like updating a data in the
database etc) while executing the scripts.

Again we can use SP and also we can increse the Timeout
option in QTP from the same purpose.

But by using SP tool waits till the action process ends ,
while by using timeout option the tool waits for a specific
time period given by us ,irrespective of the fact that the
process /action is over or not.

Answer / rajesh

snychronisation point in your test script instructs
winrunner to stop execution untill the application being
tested is ready and then to continue the test[basically it
is used when ever there is multi-tasking or processing in
the application]

hope u got it now.

Answer / venkat

tool wait set of amount of time for an application to
respond to its input.during the test run th default amount
of time may not be enough, the tool continue to test the
application,before the application not ready.this leads to
error in the script.this is the synchronisation between
tool and the application.
the default amount of time the winrunner waits is 10
seconds.
the default amount of time the rational robot waits is 1
sec.

Answer / k.chandra sekhar

a) Synchronization point in your test script instructs
tool (like W/r or QTP) to stop execution until the
application being tested is ready and then to is multi
tasking or processing in the application
b) This is the main use of the real time

Answer / anonymous

Synchroni.p is used to tell qtp that it should wait for
some time to perform action on the SUT.
Whenver there is 3rd application involvement in testing, we
use this.

1 applic= qtp
2 applic=AUT
3 rd application- DBMS.
- web servers
every application take some time to perform action. Since
we don't know the behaviour of 3rd apli, we should use sync
point.

Answer / nandankumar

"Syncronization is a process of matching the speeds of both
Qtp and application in order to sync with each other to
obtain proper testing results".

3 ways we can do

1.by inserting the syncronization point statement
--by default qtp has 20 sec's for executing any test..but
if we insert sycronizatin point statement (time in milli
sec's)
suppose if we give 5000 millisec's(5 sec's) then it will
wait default time (20)+5 secs.
with in this time if qtp identifies the object information
then it will perfom the actions on the application..if not
identify that means the application is too slow not sync
with the qtp then it fails and shows us the error..

2.By inserting wait statement

wait(time in sec's)
if we suppose give
wait(50)
then it will wait blindly 50 sec's

3.Increasing the default time
by default we know that qtp has 20 sec's
we can increase this in menu item file -settings- 60 sec's
if we increase this blindly qtp will wait 60 secs and
perform action on aut.
