Unified Functional Testing (UFT) – Application Testing (TESTUFT)

Specialized training, Testing

This course familiarizes testers and developers with HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT), a leading tool for automated testing of desktop and web applications. Participants learn the UFT interface and how to record, edit and execute tests to build reliable automation.

The syllabus covers advanced UFT features: working with the object repository, test parameterization using data tables and external files, structuring tests with Actions, basic VBScript scripting, synchronization, step generator and recovery scenarios.

THIS TRAINING COURSE WILL HELP YOU:

  • design, record and run automated tests in UFT
  • manage and use the object repository effectively
  • parameterize tests with data tables and external files
  • write basic VBScript to extend test logic

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

  • testers who automate functional tests
  • developers supporting automation efforts
  • QA engineers learning UFT best practices
  • automation engineers new to UFT
