QTP 11 Patches for IE 9

QTP 11 Patches for IE 9:

I am trying to set up a QTP Framework in my current company and therefore we decided to start with using the trail version. We faced some issues while installing the QTP evaluation version. Just thought to share it, so that if anyone else has the same issue then it might help them as well.

Issue: After installing the QTP 11 evaluation pack we are not able to record the script for web application.

Environment: QTP 11, Windows 7, IE 9

Solution: For IE 9 we need to install 2 patches QTPWEB_00073, QTPWEB_00078 these patches are available in the QTP 11 Patches folder.

After installing these patches we were able to create the script for our web application. Bingo J

Software Testing is an easy job?

After a long time i am writing my new post. The reason was simple wasn't able to think of some interesting topic. Now got the one based on my experiences in one of my company.

Every tester will agree with me that Testing isn't an easy job but people outside the testing circle or people who have got very little knowledge of testing thinks that testing is an easy job.

So how you going to deal with such kind of people who just come to you with  a deployment change and ask you that this is the change just test it and give me sign off. Will you just do what they say?  I am not writing this after reading this in some article or book i am writing what i have gone through. Ok let's start it as short story to make the whole understandable and interesting.

We have got three character in this story:

 1. Mr Head ( They always say that "Quality needs to be maintained". In our story will address them as B.) 

2. Mr Manager (He is always worrying about Delivery. In our story will address them as M)

3. Tester (Tester's who are handling multiple jobs. In our story will address them as T)

So the story goes like this: Our Tester T has joined new company where no process exists in fact there is no Testing team and the responsibility of setting up a testing process has been given to T.

First Week:

M & B: Hello T welcome to the team. You know what expectations we have from you; we know setting up a process will take time and we do have many lined up projects so you keep on working on the projects as well as works out on the process implementation.

T: Yeah, I understand will take care if that but you have to give time. Testing cannot be done just like that.

M & B: Oh yes of course we understand that, you do the work your way.

T: Ok then will work on documentation first and will set up internal QA process and then we can propose it to rest of the team.

M & B: ok good. Go ahead as per you plan.

Second Week:

B: Ok T so now we need to have proper documents of all our applications which we don't have. Start working on that.

T: Ok will check out what i can do as i am also new to the applications; I have already started working on process documents but will start work on application document as well. Will go through whatever is available in the system

Third Week:

M: There is a new requirement go through it and plan your testing.

B: We have a organized KT session for you, attend those and raise your concern.

B: There is a request for enhancement you need to test those. Plan it.

T:  ???????

What do am I going to start now….hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The story goes on like this for rest of the weeks.

Will publish the next part about what Steps T has taken to organize the QA stuff. As it is live story so will have to wait for some time to get the part2 of this.

Till then Happy Testing :)
