Installing Custom Process Guidance Packages in QuickTest
There are two ways to distribute and install custom process
guidance packages:
VarDropDown.fAnchorOpen("exwp160046", false);Install the process
guidance package from a zip file
VarDropDown.fAnchorClose("exwp160046", false);
VarDropDown.fDIVOpen("exwp160046", false);
- Create a folder that contains the Configuration.xml file and all the HTML data files
(as well as any files or folders referenced from the HTML files).
- Zip the folder and then send the .zip file
to all relevant QuickTest users or store it in a location that they can
access.
- In QuickTest, choose File > Process Guidance
Management. The Process Guidance Management dialog box opens.
- Click the Add button and browse to the .zip file. The package is added and its processes
are displayed in the dialog box.
VarDropDown.fDIVClose();
VarDropDown.fAnchorOpen("exwp159926", false);Install the process
guidance package via registry key
VarDropDown.fAnchorClose("exwp159926", false);
VarDropDown.fDIVOpen("exwp159926", false);
- Prepare the Configuration.xml file and the
data files.
- Place the data files in a local or shared network folder or on a Web server.
Ensure that the Address attribute of the Activity elements in the Configuration.xml file point to this
location.
- Copy the Configuration.xml to a local drive
on the QuickTest computer.
- Open the Registry Editor and find the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mercury
Interactive\QuickTest Professional\MicTest\ProcessGuidance\ConfFiles
- Add a value to this key with the path to the Configuration.xml file. The next time QuickTest is
opened, it will include the new package.
