Xpath Based QTP Object Identification

Xpath object identification is a new feature in QTP 11. I would like to share an example for it using Google web page

Dim oPage

Set oPage=Browser("name:=Google").Page("title:=Google")

oPage.WebEdit("xpath:=//INPUT[@name='q']").Set "advancedqtp"'Entering value in Google textbox.

oPage.WebButton("xpath:=//INPUT[@value='Google Search']").Click'Clicking Google Search button.

Try it and enjoy

    QuickTest uses XPATH/CSS identifiers only when identifying objects and not when
    learning objects. Therefore, they are not available from the Object Spy or
    the Object Identification dialog box.You can add an object using Add object to local, and then for complex web objects to be identified more accurately you can add Xpath or CSS property after adding the object to Local and deleting Ordinal Identifiers.While learning the object you cannot find the Xpath or css property.

    Hi,
    This is Firoz, currently working on XPATH and CSS in QTP.
    Here is How I Do:
    In QTP we dont have direct facility to find the XPath for an object. We have another method called IE Developer Tool Bar, That is as follows :
    Click F12 in IE or Chrome. This shortcut(F12) is for IEDeveloper Tool bar.
    A new window will be opened clearly showing the html view of the current page ...
    A Pointer tip will be there. Click on the Pointer and goto your object and click on it. while hovering only you will get a border line surrounding your object.
    then apply xpath or css using these properties.
    for more information contact me : firozshaik27@yahoo.com
