Importing DP Objects from a tsr or bdb file

You can import DP objects that are created using UFT into Qualitia Automation Studio. Simply export the DP objects on UFT as a tsr or a bdb file and import the file in Qualitia Automation Studio.

  • After importing DP objects, Quailtia does not update or remove the existing DP objects. It only adds the new DP objects.

  • If any object name and its class for an imported DP object conflicts with an existing object, then Qualitia appends it with '_' followed by a sequential number (starting from 1) in the object name.

  • The description of the imported DP objects includes the name of the bdb or tsr file and the hierarchy of the object in the bdb file.

  • If an object in the bdb or tsr file does not contain any properties, then Qualitia sets micClass property as the object property.

To import objects from a tsr or a bdb file:

  1. Open the desktop project in which you want to import the DP objects.

  2. From the Expand Menu, click Develop.

  3. Click the Objects tab.

  4. In the left pane, click the DP object tree node.

  5. Click Import.

  6. Locate the tsr or bdb file that you want to import and click OK.

If the importing of DP objects fails, then Qualitia displays error messages. To troubleshoot the importing errors, see the Import_Log.txt file located in the following location:
