How to Data Drive a Test Script Using IBM - Rational Functional Tester - RFT

Steps for data driving a script are as under:

8 Inch Tv Monitor

Step - 1: Creation of a Project: Project is the first & foremost workbench required to store the test assets which are needed for testing any application.

8 Inch Tv Monitor

Step - 2: Beginning of the test script recording: Involves two steps like:

a) Choice of Datapool record selection order: While playing back, the test script accesses various records in the datapool either sequentially or randomly. Thus choice out of these two options is done from the "Datapool Record Selection Order" box from the Select Script Assets dialog box.

# Sequential order: Records are accessed by the test script in a sequential order as they appear in the Datapool.

# Random order: Every record gets accessed by the test script randomly once from the Datapool.

b) Finish the selections: Click "Finish" to minimize the Functional Tester window and launching the Recording Monitor.

Step - 3: Navigation across the application to a point desired to be data driven:

# Click "Start Application" on the Recording toolbar.

# Now do necessary actions across the application as desired to be recorded in the test script.

Step - 4: Data Driving the test:

a) Opening of the Insert Data Driven Actions page after halting the recording of the test script. To do this; click "Insert Data Driven Commands" on the "Recording" toolbar,

b) Key in the initial values which are desired to be seen in the Datapool in the fields required to be data driven in our application under test.

While recording is halted, we avoid recording of unwanted actions in the test script by populating such fields.

Step - 5: Selecting the test objects: Under "Populate then Select Test Objects" select the test objects through either of the two methods:

Method -1: "Press and drag hand to select test objects" is used to select an object and all the descendents of the selected object. This is the most common and direct method of selecting an object.

Method -2: For opening the Select Object to Data Drive page, "Use selection wizard to select test objects". To do this click on the "Drag Hand Selection" method with its options, alternatively click on the "Test Object Browser" method.

Step - 6: In case we had opted for method -1 under Step - 5 above i.e. "Press and drag hand to select test objects"

a) Use the mouse to drag the hand shaped, "Object Finder tool", to the object in the application which is desired to be selected. RFT automatically outlines this object with a red border.

b) Now release the mouse button.

The Data Drive Actions page shall open now. The information about the objects selected by us appears under the DataDriven Commands table.

For viewing the line of the code inserted by RFT in our test script, we need to place the mouse pointer over a row in this table for data-driving our application.

Step - 7: In case we had opted for method -2 under Step - 5 above i.e. "Use selection wizard to select test objects", click on "Selection method" arrow for making a selection out of either of the further two methods:

Method -A: "Drag Hand Selection" method is used to include only the selected object, the selected object and the immediate children of the selected object, or to include the selected object and all descendents of the selected object.

Method -B: "Test Object Browser" method is used to browse for the object desired to be selected.

Step - 8: In case we had opted for method -A under Step - 7 above i.e. "Drag Hand Selection" method

a) Select or clear the option "After selecting an object advance to the next page".

b) Use the mouse to drag the hand shaped Object Finder tool, to the object desired to be selected in the application. RFT automatically outlines this object with a red border.

c) Release the mouse button.

d) Click on "Next" if we opt for not selecting the option "After selecting an object advance to next page".

e) Click on one of the following options:

# "Just the selected object"
# "Include the immediate children of the selected object"
# "Include all descendents of the selected object"

Step - 9: In case we had opted for method -B under Step - 7 above i.e. "Test Object Browser" method

a) Browse the object tree to find the object required to be data-driven.

b) Click on the part of the tree required to be selected. Then Click "Next".

c) Click on one of the following options.

# "Just the selected object"
# "Include the immediate children of the selected object"
# "Include all descendents of the selected object"

d) Click "Finish".

The Insert Data Driven Actions page opens & presents all the information filled in under
"Data Driven Commands" and "Selected Command Description".

Step - 10: Click "OK" to finish the data-driving process for the script. This closes the "Insert Data Driven Actions" page and RFT presents a Datapool containing all the data gathered from the application.

Step - 11: Perform all other actions in the application, which we want to record. The actions can be like: Recording a verification point or inserting desired script support functions into the script such as such as a call script command, log entry, timer, script delay command, or comment etc.

Step - 12: Close the application, if we want closing of the application to be part of the script.

Step - 13: Click on "Stop Recording" on the "Recording" toolbar, to append all the recorded
Information to the test script and update the Datapool with new variables and associated initial values.

RFT window opens and the recorded script gets displayed in the editor window.

Flat Screen Plasma TV Provides a Wide Range of Viewing

At the time when flat screen televisions were initially introduced the technology that they were primarily based on were LCD and were made available in sizes that were smaller which were to be used in some television sets as well as in monitors for computers. These types of liquid crystal displays were ideal for laptop computers and the smaller sizes were ideal for other types of devices such handheld devices. Along with the launching of the flat screen plasma TV screen back in 1999, the television captivated world was sent into a mesmerizing shock.

8 Inch Tv Monitor

Before the debut of the flat screen plasma TV the bigger sized screens were dominated by rear projection which also unfortunately had a limited viewing angle to them. The only way that a viewer could get a clear, sharp image he/she had to sit right directly in front of the unit. The majority of them were very big and bulky, some of them as many as four feet deep. Because of the limited viewing angle, they weren't valued by the majority of people due to the fact that they could not see the picture clearly.

8 Inch Tv Monitor

With the arrival of the flat screen plasma TV and viewing angles in the range of 170 degrees, these bigger screens can be viewed by a much bigger audience while still being able to see a full clear picture. With the vast majority of the predated tapered versions of television screens, the picture frequently lost a good portion of it's detail close to the edges. With the newer flat screen plasma TV monitors, there isn't any loss of detail on the sides or towards the top and the bottom so the viewers can experience the full affect of the image being shown.

Size Matters In Terms of Diagonal Measurements

Back in the 1950's when televisions first made their introduction, the measurement back then of the screen frequently escaped most peoples logic. What the industry did was set the standard practice of taking the measurements on a diagonal manner. A 22-inch television was figured by taking a measurement from one edge of the screen to the other edge of the screen to arrive at the 22-inch mark.

When the measurement is taken at either a vertical or horizontal, the size was substantially less. Similar methods are utilized on today's flat screen plasma TV, however the majority of individuals have more interest in what is known as the aspect ratio of the image as well as the resolution that is presented.

The greatest difference in flat screen plasma TV's nowadays is the total size of the television. In terms of the older models, what is known as the cathode ray tube frequently was encapsulated within the case with as high as two inches on the sides. Even in a case like a 21 inch screen having measurements of roughly 16 inches wide, the case might still need as high as 22 inches or even more. A flat screen plasma TV monitor will typically be just an inch or so bigger than the total width of the screen and a lot more space is conserved because of the thickness of roughly four inches.

Canon, Nikon &amp; Sony Prosumer Full-Frame DSLR's

Introduction:

8 Inch Tv Monitor

The full frame DSLR market is heating up - by the end of the year three major vendors, Nikon, Canon and Sony, will all have Full Frame ProSumer DSLR's in the market place, all at a similar price point.

8 Inch Tv Monitor

The 12.1 megapixel Nikon D700, based on proven technology from both the Nikon D3 and Nikon D300, was announced back in July, and is already available. With an original MSRP of ,999.95, only 3 months after its announcement street prices have already dropped to around the ,750 mark.

Rumored for months, the 24.6 megapixel Sony Alpha A900 was finally officially announced on September 9th with an MSRP of ,999.95, and should be shipping within the next few weeks.

A few days later, Canon announced the 21.1 megapixel Canon EOS 5D Mark II, offering a very comprehensive feature set, as well as adding 1080p HD Video, while undercutting both the Nikon and the Sony with its ,699.99 MSRP. The camera should ship by the end of the year.

Three very different cameras, all at a very similar price point, make for an interesting choice for the consumer or professional with up to ,000 to spend on a prosumer DSLR.

Nikon D700:

The Nikon D700 has the excellent year old sensor out of the Nikon D3, in a body comparable to the Nikon D300. With the optional MB-D10 battery pack (which also fits the Nikon D300), the D700 can achieve an impressive 8 f.p.s., while capturing 14-bit files, at least until the buffer fills.

High ISO performance on the D700 is outstanding, equal to the Nikon D3. The Nikon D700 is also has proven Autofocus and Metering. However, it is the lowest resolution camera in the group at only 12 megapixels, and that will turn off a lot of potential buyers.

Canon EOS 5D Mark II:

The 21.1 megapixel sensor has a similar resolution to the flagship Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III, however it has a much broader ISO range. In fact, its ISO range exceeds even the Nikon D3 and D700 at ISO 50-25,600 (vs. ISO 100-25,600 for the Nikons).

The sensor in 5D Mark II is a year newer than the sensor in the D700, and if the low light capabilities come even close to the Nikon D700's, then Canon have a very compelling camera on its hands with a significantly higher resolution over the Nikon. There are very few sample images floating round from the Canon, so it's too early to be sure, but the Canon has a lot of potential - we'll soon see how much difference an extra year of sensor development makes.

The big new feature on the Canon is the 1080p HD Video mode. For many, this feature is a gimmick at best, but for some this is a very powerful tool - the ability to use a significant range of high quality lenses, and have control over depth of field that just doesn't exist on consumer video cameras today. This will be a major selling point for some, and a nice to have for many.

Sony Alpha A900:

The Sony boasts the highest resolution of the three cameras, but falls short in two major areas: Its ISO performance is significantly narrower than its main rivals, and it only boasts 12 bit A/D conversion. For the vast majority of shooters, the 12-bit A/D won't make much, if any real world difference. The problem is more one of perception, a ,000 full frame DSLR is almost expected to have 14 bit A/D conversion in today's market.

Comparing the Cameras:

You drive up in your new luxury car, and the first question your neighbor asks: "How much horsepower has that thing got?" With cameras, it's megapixels - right or wrong, that's going to be the major selling point for the average consumer, with ISO capabilities a very close second.

In reality, very few photographers need more than 12 megapixels. If you are publishing to the web, 3 megapixels is usually more than sufficient - my large 1920 by 1200 monitor is approximately 2.3 megapixels. A 1080p HD TV is less than 2.1 megapixels.

Most high quality prints are printed at 300 dpi (dots per inch), 150 dpi prints still look very good. At 300dpi, an 8x10 photo requires just over 7 megapixels. A 16x20 print at 150 dpi also requires 7.2 megapixels. How many people who buy these cameras are going to print beyond that?

The main advantage of more megapixels is the ability to crop. This is especially useful for nature, wildlife and sports photographers that need as much reach as possible. What matters to them is pixel density - the more "pixels on target" you can get with your longest lens, the more you can crop and the more effective reach you have. However none of these cameras have the highest pixel density out there - if you need reach, you'd be better served with a Nikon D300 or the new Canon 50D. To get the same pixel density as the Canon 50D in a full frame sensor, you'd need a full frame camera with almost 40 megapixels.

Whether you like it or not, the attribute of the camera that makes the headlines is the megapixel number. From a marketing perspective, that puts the Nikon D700 at a major disadvantage to the Canon 5D Mark II. On paper the Canon also wins in the ISO race, but only just. Until the camera is out there in the marketplace, we won't know for sure just how good its low ISO performance is. The Canon also has 1080p Video, which as stated before, will be a major selling point for some, and irrelevant for others.

Where the Nikon beats the Canon, is about everywhere else that counts: It has a higher maximum frame rate (especially if you add the MB-D10 grip to get 8fps, which more than doubles the Canons), and on paper it also has a superior AF system and metering system. In the same way that having more horsepower is meaningless if the car can't put that power down on the road (think transmission, suspension, tires, traction control), the Nikon D700 is still a very compelling package, especially for those that shoot sport or action.

The Sony A900 wins the megapixel race, but the Canon is very close behind. However it loses badly when you factor in ISO performance. Canon also has a much wider range of very high quality lenses to back up the camera, and offers 14-bit A/D conversion verses 12-bit on the Sony for those looking for ultimate image quality. It also has video support, and is about 10% cheaper, so the Canon effectively makes the Sony A900 a non-starter for most people.

Then it comes back to Nikon versus Canon. Both companies have a large range of professional quality lenses and other accessories to back up the camera. The Nikon is the clear choice for the sports shooter. The landscape or studio photographer will lean towards the extra resolution offered by the Canon. If the ISO performance turns out to be similar for both the Nikon D700 and Canon 5D Mark II, then for the wedding photographer and photo-journalist that need the low light capabilities, the Canon's extra resolution will give it the edge. Unless that is, that they specifically don't want to have to deal with larger image files (takes up more room on memory cards, longer to upload, longer to post process etc).

For everyone else, either the Nikon or Canon should meet or more likely exceed their needs, however Canon has the marketing advantage with the headline number. If you've spent a lot of time shooting in public, then you know someone is going to come up to you at some point and say "Nice camera, how many megapixels has that thing got?"
