OpenURL

This action opens the specified URL. Qualitia user can specify the browser and browser version in the parameters section to be used when opening URL.

Ensure that you have enabled UFT on your execution browsers (IE, Firefox, and Google Chrome).
Ensure the browser version installed on your execution device is compatible with UFT.

Input Parameters:

Parameter Name	Parameter Description	Mandatory	Data Type
Browser Type	Enter the browser name in which you want to open the URL. Parameters can be as follows: IE: This will open URL in Internet Explorer. Firefox: This will open URL in Mozilla Firefox. Chrome: This will open URL in Google Chrome.	Yes	String
URL	Enter the URL to be opened.	Yes	String
Browser version	Enter the major and minor version of the browser installed on testing machine. For example, if browser version is 54.9.0.3323, then enter only 54.9.	No	String
Path	This parameter is applicable only when using Google Chrome browser. Enter the absolute path of the chrome.exe from the Google Chrome installed location.	No	String

Example:

OpenURL “Chrome” “http://www.google.com” “53.8” “C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe”

When using this action, Qualitia defines its own set of system variables which can be used later when executing test cases. These variables are stored in Qualitia with their expressions (TRUE or FALSE). Following is the list of system variables that Qualitia stores when executing the OpenURL action.

$$_ISIE: If browser type is set as IE (Internet Explorer), then this expression is stored as TRUE. Here, other two ($$_ISFIREFOX and $$_ISCHROME) are stored as FALSE.
$$_ISFIREFOX: If browser type is set as FIREFOX (Mozilla Firefox), then this expression is stored as TRUE. Here, other two ($$_ISIE and $$_ISCHROME) are stored as FALSE.
$$_ISCHROME: If browser type is set as CHROME (Google Chrome), then this expression is stored as TRUE. Here, other two ($$_ISFIREFOX and $$_IE) are stored as FALSE.

Note: It is recommended to close all the unnecessary browsers before starting the test execution or object spying using UFT.

Example:

OpenApplication "C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe"

PressKeys

This action sends one or more keystrokes to the active window (as if typed on the keyboard).

Input Parameters:

Parameter Name	Parameter Description	Mandatory	Data Type
strKey	Enter the key which you want to press from the key board.	Yes	String

Example:

You can use PressKeys action to open the Find dialog on the browser, which is done manually using Ctrl + F. While using the PressKeys action, the data to be passed is ~^F where ^ means Control. See the list below for the keys and their meaning).

The action returns 0, if the key is pressed successfully else it will return 1 in any other case.

Note: If a PressKeys action does not execute on an Inactive Screen, refer to PressKeys Action does not Execute on an Inactive Screen.

Important Note:

The data to be passed here is only ^F. However ^ has a special meaning in QAS, it must be preceded with an escape sequence ~. Hence the data passed is written as ~^F.
Make sure to prefix an escape sequence which is a tilda for the following characters which has a special meaning in Qualitia. The characters are {,}, ^, ~
Example:

If key to be sent is {F1}, enter data as ~{F1~}.

```
To send {TAB}, enter data as ~{TAB~}.
```

To send {ENTER}, enter data as ~{ENTER~}.

Use the PressKeys action to send keystrokes to applications that have no automation interface. Most keyboard characters are represented by a single keystroke. Some keyboard characters are made up of combinations of keystrokes (CTRL+SHIFT+HOME, for example). To send a single keyboard character, send the character itself as the string argument. For example, to send the letter x, send the string argument "x".

You can use PressKeys to send more than one keystroke at a time. To do this, create a compound string argument that represents a sequence of keystrokes by appending each keystroke in the sequence to the one before it. For example, to send the keystrokes a, b, and c, you need to send as "abc". The PressKeys method uses some characters as modifiers of characters (instead of using their face-values). This set of special characters consists of parentheses, brackets, braces, and the:

plus sign "+",
caret "^", (use with an escape character [~])
percent sign "%",
and tilde "~"

Enter these characters by enclosing them within braces "{}". For example, to enter the plus sign, enter the string argument "{+}". Brackets "[ ]" have no special meaning when used with PressKeys, but you must enclose them within braces to accommodate applications that do give them a special meaning.

To send bracket characters, enter the string argument "{[}" for the left bracket and "{]}" for the right one.
To send brace characters, enter the string argument "}" for the left brace and "{" for the right one.
To send a key combination that includes Ctrl key such as Ctrl + N send "~^n"

Some keystrokes do not generate characters (such as ENTER and TAB). Some keystrokes represent actions (such as BACKSPACE and BREAK). To send these kinds of keystrokes, enter the associated arguments as shown in the following table:

Key	Argument
BACKSPACE	~{BACKSPACE~}, ~{BS~}, or ~{BKSP~}
BREAK	~{BREAK~}
CAPS LOCK	~{CAPSLOCK~}
DEL or DELETE	~{DELETE} or ~{DEL~}
DOWN ARROW	~{DOWN~}
END	~{END~}
ENTER	~{ENTER~} or ~
ESC	~{ESC~}
HELP	~{HELP~}
HOME	~{HOME~}
INS or INSERT	~{INSERT~} or ~{INS~}
LEFT ARROW	~{LEFT~}
NUM LOCK	~{NUMLOCK~}
PAGE DOWN	~{PGDN~}
PAGE UP	~{PGUP~}
PRINT SCREEN	~{PRTSC~}
RIGHT ARROW	~{RIGHT~}
SCROLL LOCK	~{SCROLLLOCK~}
TAB	~{TAB~}
UP ARROW	~{UP~}
F1	~{F1~}
F2	~{F2~}
F3	~{F3~}
F4	~{F4~}
F5	~{F5~}
F6	~{F6~}
F7	~{F7~}
F8	~{F8~}
F9	~{F9~}
F10	~{F10~}
F11	~{F11~}
F12	~{F12~}
F13	~{F13~}
F14	~{F14~}
F15	~{F15~}
F16	~{F16~}

To send keyboard characters that are comprised of a regular keystroke in combination with a SHIFT, CTRL, or ALT, create a compound string argument that represents the keystroke combination. You can do it by preceding the regular keystroke with one or more of the following special characters:

Key	Arguments
Shift	~+
Ctrl	~^
Alt	~%

When used this way, these special characters are not enclosed within a set of braces.

To specify that a combination of SHIFT, CTRL, and ALT should be held down while several other keys are pressed, create a compound string argument with the modified keystrokes enclosed in parentheses. For example, to send the keystroke combination that specifies that the SHIFT key is held down while:

e and c are pressed, enter the string argument "+(ec)".
e is pressed, followed by a lone c (with no SHIFT), enter the string argument "+ec".

You can use the PressKeys action to send a pattern of keystrokes that consists of a single keystroke pressed several times in a row. To do this, create a compound string argument that specifies the keystroke you want to repeat, followed by the number of times you want it repeated. To do this, use a compound string argument of the form {keystroke number}. For example, to send the letter "x" ten times, you would send the string argument "~{x 10~}" where you need to ensure that you enter a space between keystroke and number.

The only keystroke pattern you can send is the kind that is comprised of a single keystroke pressed several times. For example, you can send "x" ten times, but you cannot do the same for "Ctrl+x".
You cannot automate the PRINT SCREEN key ~{PRTSC~} to an application.
To send a space, enter the string "

ComparePattern “[a-z]~{0,5~}[0-9]~{5~}“ "YuIFp96062" "false"

Here the ComparePattern action shall verify that data mentioned matched the specified pattern .The action will return 0, if the data matches the specified pattern , else it will return 2 if the data does not match the pattern. In any other case it will return 1.

If the pattern is using Qualitia's special characters like {,},/,^ then they should be prefixed with /.
