How can I create a test script in QTP which performs right click operation under any windows folder?

Question

I want to create a test script in QTP which when I execute does 'Right mouse button' operation on any windows folder and select any specified Popupmenu eg. Refresh.

I have added the folder under QTP OR and its reflects the black folder area as 'WinList'.

This is the added OR hierarchy that I added: Window("abc").WinObject("Items View").WinList("Items View")

So Basically i want to perform RMB Operation over this WinList and select any option under the PopupMenu.

Answer 1

Use Description Object for collecting data of all object which you are interested in. Here is nice how-to. Then spy object (to click on - in your case WinList object) and manage its properties by WinListEntry.SetToProperty("propertyName","valueToSet") to locate and click custom menu entry.

Answer 2

Window("abc").WinObject("Items View").WinList("Items View").Click micNoCoordinate, micNoCoordinate, micRightBtn

should do the job.

I hope you get the pun intended ;-)
