QTP incompatible with Eclipse or any similar Java Application




There are more than a few reasons that you want both QTP and eclipse on your machine.

REASON: This is an issue with QTP, which adds some Java hooks globally, this breaks Eclipse at start time. Removing these will break QTP
When QTP is installed it creates/modifies several environment variables that Java applications use.

The setting for these values that are needed for QTP may cause problems for other Java applications, such as Eclipse.

There are scenarios where QuickTest Professional (QTP) java support environment variables (_JAVA_OPTIONS, JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS, IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS, _classload_hook) prevent specific applications from launching or functioning properly.


SOLUTION:There are some suggested workarounds from HP in the following support doc: (http://support.openview.hp.com/selfsolve/document/KM834284).
Suggestion three is worth trying and does not require updating HKLM registry.


These suggestions will allow to work around this situation even with the QTP java support variables in place and with corresponding values. Note that the conflicting application will not be recognized in a java context because it is being excluded from the java support mechanism.

Create a batch file (.bat) to start the conflicting java application similar as follows:

@echo off

Set _JAVA_OPTIONS=

Set JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=

Set IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS=



This approach will disable the java environment variables for the run session of the .bat file

@echo off

Set _JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xrunjvmhook -Xbootclasspath/a:C:\PROGRA~2\HP\QUICKT~1\bin\JAVA_S~1\classes\jasmine.jar

Set JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-agentlib:jvmhook

Set IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xrunjvmhook -Xbootclasspath/a:C:\PROGRA~2\HP\QUICKT~1\bin\JAVA_S~1\classes;C:\PROGRA~2\HP\QUICKT~1\bin\JAVA_S~1\classes\jasmine.jar

Software Testing @ Microsoft

Image
In continuation from my previous  series of posts  targeting testing in top few companies from the technology space. After  Software Testing @Facebook  and @Google  we shall now look at Microsoft: Testing@Microsoft Software Development Engineers in Test (SDETs) are usually just called Test and sometimes Software Testing. SDETs are responsible for maintaining high testing and qualityassurance standards for all Microsoft products. Software Development Engineers (SDEs) are often referred to as Software Development. SDEs write the code that drives Microsoft products and upgrades. Very few teams in Microsoft are still using SDETs to do significant amount of manual testing. Manual testing is mainly outsourced. Actually, as early as in 2004, for example, most of the manual testing of MSN Explorer was outsourced. Think about it this way: it just doesn't make sense for test manager to spend their headcount (SDETs) on something can be easily outsourced.  Until 2005, Microso

Trim / Remove spaces in Xpath?

Image
If you are wondering how you can trim the spaces in your xpath, this is how: The normalize-space function strips leading and trailing white-space from a string, replaces sequences of white-space characters by a single space, and returns the resulting string. Example : Which one is better? //td[starts-with(normalize-space(),'Text to Trim')] //td[starts-with(normalize-space(text()),' Text to Trim ')] The second option is better as it targets at the specific nodes More string functions in XPATH: Functions Description starts-with( string1 ,  string2 ) Returns true if the first string starts with the second string. contains( string1 ,  string2 ) Returns true if the first string contains the second string. substring( string offset length ) Returns a section of the string. The section starts at  offset (which is a number), and is as long as the value provided at  length. substring-before( string1 ,  string2 ) Returns the part of  string1  up unti
