Answer / praveenkumar

There 3 types of Ordinal Identifiers

* 1) Index based
* 2) Location based
* 3) Creation Time



Index Based



* When using Index based ordinal identifier, while
recording , QTP will assign a value to INDEX property of an
object
* The value is based on the order in which the object
appears within the source code.
* The first occurrence has value 0
* Index property values are object-specific.
* Therefore, if you use Index:=3 to describe a WebEdit
test object, Quick Test searches for the fourth WebEdit
object on the page.
* Likewise , you use Index:=1 to describe a WebButton
test object, Quick Test searches for the third WebButton
object on the page





Location Based

* When using location based ordinal identifier, while
recording , QTP will assign a value to LOCATION property of
an object to uniquely identify the object.
* The value is based on the order in which the object
appears within the window, frame, or dialog box, in relation
to other objects with identical properties.
* The first occurrence of the object is 0.
* Values are assigned in columns from top to bottom, and
left to right.



Creation Time

* When using creation time ordinal identifier, while
recording , QTP will assign a value to CreationTime property
of an WebBrowser
* The Identifier is only available for the Web Environment
* This value indicates the order in which the browser
was opened relative to other open browsers.
* The first browser that opens while recording receives
the value CreationTime=0 and succeeding browsers are give
values 1 , 2 , 3 … an so on

Answer / shivangi

i think in this scenario QTP will be cofused which button
should be selected....

so what we will do we will prefer low lwvwl recording
because in low level recording whatever object is clicked it
captures the co-ordinates aswell.... X axis & Y Axis....
so this way QTP will recognise the buttons separetely bcoz
they will be located on diffrent location on the same web
page.....
