Answer / firoz shaik

The disadvantage is:
As Akshar jain said, Screen resolution is very important.
sometimes these checkpoints will also check the system
configuration.

When you record the checkpoint, that may work in one
machine and may not work in another machine and the entire
script will fail.

One more important thing is that we will not be able to
know on what property the checkpoint holds until the
execution of the script.

I think this might add some more to what akshar jain has
said.
Thanks,
Need any assistance, mail me.

Answer / ramana

The main drawback is it cannot handle the erros

Answer / qtplearner

Used QTP 9.5.

Checkpoint as we know takes longer time to execute than
normal checking. In such cases defining amount of time
dedicated to a checkpoint can be reduced.
In case a checkpoint fails it shows which property has been
failed aslo showing passed properties as well in test
report.

Checkpoint is wonderful if used properly.
Thanks

Answer / akshar jain

i think the screen resolution is important if u r using
checkpoints like bit map chkpoint,in one system it may run
smoothly & in the other system the same test may fail

Answer / hemant kumar

Few big drawbacks with QuickTest Professional in build
checkpoints are:
1. The check always returns either pass or fail however;
there is no way to know the reason or the property that is
failing. (For example you use standard checkpoint and you
check more than one property at a time. Now if the check
point fails there is no way for you to know what property
failed, it will just say pass or fail)
2. Any properties you add to the object description in the
object repository manually, will not be displayed in case of
standard checkpoint. Which straight away means, you can't
check them using qtp standard checkpoint. You will have to
check them manually.

Answer / kiran

With check points, customisation to the results is not
possible..i mean yo cannot define the test scenario and
what is the result output.

Can we check environment variable value without existing of environment variable
