Welcome To Automation Testing

Before starting with tips of automation of SAP using QTP Let me give a small introduction of SAP and QTP.

SAP stands for System Applications and Products. It is the name of both the online financial and

Administrative software and the company that developed it. SAP is made up of individual modules that perform various organizational system tasks.



Quick Test Professional (QTP) is an automated functional Graphical User Interface (GUI) testing tool that allows the automation of user actions on a web or client based computer application.

It is primarily used for functional regression test automation. QTP uses a scripting language built on top of VBScript to specify the test procedure, and to manipulate the objects and controls of the application under test. It supports many applications through the support of add-ins.



We will be using SAP add-in with QTP to work on the SAP automation.

CreateObject in QTP/vbScript


CreateObject is function which creates a reference to the specified object. You can then use the reference object to access the methods/properties of the specified object.

As createobject returns a reference to object, you must use Set to assingn it to a variable.

Set objExcel=CreateObject(“Excel.Application”)
‘Adding a workbook
Set objWorkBooj= objExcel.Workbooks.Add
‘Activating the sheet
Set objSheet=objWorkBook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
‘Writing values to excel
objExcel.Cells(row,column)=<”Your value>”

Below is the list of most commonly used objects. I hope you find it useful.
