Add-In Manager

QTP supports almost all industry leading technologies. When ever you purchase a License for QTP 9.2 there are three default license are given for these three Add ins which you can see by default in the add in manager. They are

1. Active X Environment.
2. Visual Basic Environment.
3. Web Environment

If you select any of the add in environment then in the Object repository (will discuss later about this) all the objects of this environment will be loaded so that while recording a script and running it the Test Objects will recognize the Run Time objects (will discuss later about Objects).

There are other types of Add in Environments or platforms which QTP supports but these add ins Licenses have to be purchased in addition to the QTP 9.2 License. The cost depends on the type of License you purchase.


List of Paid Add- ins for QTP 9.2

1. Java/J2EE Environment.
2. .NET Web Forms Environment
3. Delphi Environment
4. .NET Windows Forms Environment.
5. SAP Environment.
6. Siebel Environment.
7. People Soft Environment.
8. Oracle Forms Environment.
9. Web Servers Environment.
10. TE (Terminal Emulator) Environment.


Out of the above Add ins Oracle Forms and Web Servers Environments are very costly.

IF none of the add ins are checked in the Add in Manager of QTP then Standard Windows Environment will be loaded by default.
