Understanding Insight Objects in
UFT 11.5
QTP
11.5 has new features which I have specified in http://venkatgn.blogspot.in/2013/05/hp-qtp-11.html
Apart
from the above specified features one of the most important features is how to recognize
the objects in application using “image”
of the object rather than the properties of the image.
The
below navigation explains how the object is recognized using “image” recording
in “insight mode”
·
Insight
is an image-based identification of object in the application.
·
UFT
stores an image of the object with insight test objects (Object Repository) and
uses this image as main description property to recognize object in the
application.
·
For
the objects UFT can also use ordinal identifier to uniquely identify the object
if 2 more more same images are there in the same page
·
Visual
relation identifier can also be used to identify the object based on its
relative position with respect to other near by objects in the
application. (up / left / right / bottom / above)
Adding Insight
Objects into object Repository:
UFT allow adding Insight object either in recording
Mode or manually in object repository:
1.
Insight
Recording: When we start recording in UFT, There is an option to select
recording mode. The recording modes in UFT are default, analog, Low Level
recording, and Insight recording. When we select recording mode as Insight
recording, UFT records object as insight object for images and identifies rest
of objects like edit box as window object WinObject and perform action on them.
2. Insight
Objects can be added through Object Repository. Go to Resources>Object
Repository. This will open Object Repository window. In Object Repository
window, Navigate to Object>Add Insight objects to Local. This can
also be added by icon as shown below.
Once
we click on Add Insight objects to local, UFT asks to select Learn Mode which
can be manual and automatic. Manual Mode provides magnifier to select minute
objects in the application.

Options available
to work with Insight in UFT 11.5:
UFT
11.5 provides following options for working with insight objects. Options for
Insight Object are at Tools>Options>GUI Testing>Insight. This
pane enables you to define options that customize how UFT handles Insight test
objects when creating test object, and during record and run sessions.
Options
to customize the insight object are as follows:
a. Save
the clicked coordinates as the test object’s Click Point when recording a test
object.
b. When
recording a test, display mouse operations.

test object image, maximum pixels around image, and maximum number of snapshots
to save when recording a test object
