We can suppress the regular expression of a window by replacing the regexp_label property with label property

Winrunner Question 33: How do you copy and move objects between different GUI map files?

How do you copy and move objects between different GUI map files?
We can copy and move objects between different GUI Map files using the GUI Map Editor. The steps to be followed are:
 
  • Choose Tools > GUI Map Editor to open the GUI Map Editor.
     
  • Choose View > GUI Files.
     
  • Click Expand in the GUI Map Editor. The dialog box expands to display two GUI map files simultaneously.
     
  • View a different GUI map file on each side of the dialog box by clicking the file names in the GUI File lists.
     
  • In one file, select the objects you want to copy or move. Use the Shift key and/or Control key to select multiple objects. To select all objects in a GUI map file, choose Edit > Select All.
     
  • Click Copy or Move.
     
  • To restore the GUI Map Editor to its original size, click Collapse

Winrunner Question 34: How do you select multiple objects during merging the files?

How do you select multiple objects during merging the files?
 
  • Use the Shift key and/or Control key to select multiple objects. To select all objects in a GUI map file, choose Edit > Select All.

Winrunner Question 35: How do you clear a GUI map files? How do you filter the objects in the GUI map?

How do you clear a GUI map files?

We can clear a GUI Map file using the “Clear All” option in the GUI Map Editor.

How do you filter the objects in the GUI map?
GUI Map Editor has a Filter option. This provides for filtering with 3 different types of options.
 
  • Logical name displays only objects with the specified logical name.
     
  • Physical description displays only objects matching the specified physical description. Use any substring belonging to the physical description.
     
  • Class displays only objects of the specified class, such as all the push buttons.

Winrunner Question 36: What is the purpose of GUI map configuration? How do you make the configuration and mappings permanent?

What is the purpose of GUI map configuration?
GUI Map configuration is used to map a custom object to a standard object.

How do you make the configuration and mappings permanent?
The mapping and the configuration you set are valid only for the current WinRunner session. To make the mapping and the configuration permanent, you must add configuration statements to your startup test script

Winrunner Question 37: What is the purpose of GUI spy?

Using the GUI Spy, you can view the properties of any GUI object on your desktop. You use the Spy pointer to point to an object, and the GUI Spy displays the properties and their values in the GUI Spy dialog box. You can choose to view all the properties of an object, or only the selected set of properties that WinRunner learns.

Winrunner Question 38: What is the purpose of obligatory and optional properties of the objects?

For each class, WinRunner learns a set of default properties. Each default property is classified “obligatory” or “optional”.
  • An obligatory property is always learned (if it exists).
     
  • An optional property is used only if the obligatory properties do not provide unique identification of an object. These optional properties are stored in a list. WinRunner selects the minimum number of properties from this list that are necessary to identify the object. It begins with the first property in the list, and continues, if necessary, to add properties to the description until it obtains unique identification for the object.

Winrunner Question 39: When the optional properties are learned?

When the optional properties are learned?
An optional property is used only if the obligatory properties do not provide unique identification of an object.

Winrunner Question 40: What is the purpose of location indicator and index indicator in GUI map configuration?

In cases where the obligatory and optional properties do not uniquely identify an object, WinRunner uses a selector to differentiate between them. Two types of selectors are available:
 
  • A location selector uses the spatial position of objects.
The location selector uses the spatial order of objects within the window, from the top left to the bottom right corners, to differentiate among objects with the same description.
 
  • An index selector uses a unique number to identify the object in a window.
The index selector uses numbers assigned at the time of creation of objects to identify the object in a window. Use this selector if the location of objects with the same description may change within a window.
