Rational Rose

JavaBeans, and CORBA

component standards.

27. What is the purpose of comparators inanalyzing the results?Ans: purpose of comparator is analysing

the result of verification point.comparator compares the result ofbaseline verification point dataagainst the actual verification pointdata.

28. What is the purpose of the wait state?What is the use of Global.sbl file in

Rational?Ans: Robot provides lobal.sbl file for the

convenience of the users. It a blanklibrary source files. You can addprocedures to it or make your ownwait statement is used to wait theapplication for that particular periodof time and that will move of later forexample wait(20), means thisstatement will wait for 20 sec and itwill move from that statement

29. Symbol for comments in Rational?

Ans: " ' "........a "singe quote"...... ( " ' " ) isused to comment statements inRational Robot script. By placing asingle quote...the statement turns

30. Purpose of inserting delay values in thescripts of Rational?Ans: Wait values are useful when the

application requires an unknownamount of time to complete a task.

Using a wait value keeps theverification point from failing if thetask is not completed or if the datais not accessible right away.

31. What is the purpose of comparators inanalyzing the results?Ans: purpose of comparator is analysing

the result of verification point.comparator compares the result ofbaseline verification point dataagainst the actual verification pointdata.

32. Explain user defined data type with anexample..?Ans: user must create the data type if none

of the standard data types containsthe kind of values that user want

to supply. For example user needa database column named COLOR &the values should be red, blue,green, yellow, etc .but in predefineddata type there is no such datatype. So we have to create a userdefined data type named color &havepredefined values RED, BLUE,GREEN.1) To create user defined data type inrational robot in TestManager>>click Tools>>managedata types.

2) Click new.3) Type name (color) &description>>click ok4) Click yes when prompted to enternew data values now. Insert red,

green, and yellow, blue5) Click save

33. What is the use of Global.sbl file inRational?

Robot provides lobal.sbl file for theconvenience of the users. It a blanklibrary source files. You can add

procedures to it or make your own

34. What is the difference between rationalrose and QTP?Ans: Quick test professional is a powerful

functional testing tool. Its very userfriendly interface tool. It mainly fasttests creation, easier maintenance,and more powerful data-drivingcapability. Identifies objects with

testing,

35. What is the difference between RationalRose and UML?Ans: The UML is the Unified Modeling

Language. It is a collection ofdiagrams, terms, profiles, etc. that oneuses to design and develop complexsystems and software. The UML iscontrolled by a standardsorganization, the Object ManagementGroup (OMG). The current version ofthe UML is 2.1.

IBM Rational Rose is one of manytools for building UML models. Theproblem with Rose is that it stoppedwith version 1.5 of the UML. Therewere some follow-on products(Rational refers to them as RSx).

Depending on what you are doing,there are other tools that may bebetter for your job. For example, if youare trying to design a complex systemor trying to build a real time orembedded application, you should use

Rational's Rhapsody (IBM boughtTelelogic this year, so Rhapsody isnow under the Rational banner, butnot all sales people know that).

Rhapsody has two main advantagesover Rose. First, Rhapsody generatescomplete application code from classdiagrams, state charts, activitydiagrams and flow charts. The code itgenerates (C, C++, Java, and I thinkAda) is very tight, easy to read anddebug, and looks like the code you'd

write by hand. Second, Rhapsodysupports UML 2.1, so you get ports,structured classes, and other usefulextensions.

36. Where the data pool values are stored?Ans: Data pool values are stored in text file

with .CSV extension

37. How do you analyze results afterplayback?Ans: Test manager opens the result

window with appropriate comparator.

38. What is purpose of RationalAdministrator?Ans: Rational Administrator is a tool for

managing associations betweenrational artifacts such as test datastores, requisite pro projects, clearquest databases and rose models.With the help of rational administratorwe can: Create and manage rationalprojects. Create and maintain usersand groups. Upgrade project assetssuch as requisite pro databases andtest data stores. Enable a rationalproject for use with unified change

management.

39. Where the data pool column names arestored?Ans: In data pool specification (.spc) file

40. What is Data pool?Ans: Data pool is test data that supply data

values to the variable in script duringplayback. Data pool values are storedin file with .CSV extension. Data poolcolumns name are stored inspecification file with .spc extension.

Data pools are mainly created to runthe script multiple times withoutinterruption.

41. How many verification points are therein Robot and what are they?Ans: There are 13 verification points in

rational robot they are XML, text,menu, object data, object properties,clip points, window exist, windowscan, file exist, file scan, website scan, website exist and some other.Probably there are some changes in

this list.

42. When does a plug-in get started?Ans: Each plug-in can be viewed as having

a declarative section and a codesection. The declarative part iscontained in the plug-in.xml file. Thisfile is loaded into a registry when theplatform starts up and so is alwaysavailable, regardless of whether a

QBankPage No:6


plug-in has started. The code sectionis laze loaded by default. They areactivated only when their functionalityhas been explicitly invoked by theuser.

43. How to config a plug-in to startautomatically during platform starts up?Ans: Define the 'Eclipse-AutoStart=true'

header in Manifest file.

44. What are extensions and extensionpoints?Ans: Loose coupling in Eclipse is achieved

partially through the mechanism ofextensions and extension points.When a plug-in wants to allow otherplug-ins to extend or customizeportions of its functionality, it will

declare an extension point. Theextension point declares a typically acombination of XML markup and Javainterfaces, that extensions mustconform to. Plug-ins that wants toconnect to that extension point mustimplement that contract in theirextension.

The key attribute is that the plug-inbeing extended knows nothing aboutthe plug-in that is connecting to itbeyond the scope of that extension

point contract. This allows plug-insbuilt by different individuals orcompanies to interact seamlessly,even without their knowing muchabout one another.

45. What is the class path of a plug-in?Ans: The OSGi parent class loader. (Java

boot class loader by default); theexported libraries of all imported plug-ins; the declared libraries of the plug-in and all its fragments.

46. How to access UI objects from a non-uithread?Ans: Use Display.getDefault ().asyncExec

(new Runnable()...)Display.asyncExec causes the run()method of the runnable to be invokedby the user-interface thread at thenext reasonable opportunity. Thecaller of this method continues to run

in parallel, and is not notified when therunnable has completed.

47. Do we need to explicitly invokeorg.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image.dispose()?

Ans: Application code must explicitly invokethe Image.dispose() method torelease the operating systemresources managed by each instancewhen those instances are no longerrequired. This is because that theJava finalization is too weak to reliablysupport management of operatingsystem resources.

48. How to fire a key event in my test codeto make the program act as if a userpressed a key?Ans: Two ways to implement it in code:

generating OS level key event useDisplay. Post (Event) or useWidge.notifyListeners(...) to just notifya widget's listeners

49. What is a Rational Rose?Ans: Rational Rose is a tool/editor which

can is used for designing purposes,mainly for object oriented concepts,like u can draw class diagrams,sequence diagrams, static structures,block diagrams etc etc, the basicarchitecture of a project.

50. What is the use of RationalAdministrator?Ans: Use the Rational Administrator to:

1. create and manage projects.2. Create a project under configurationmanagement.3. Create a project outside ofconfiguration management.4. Connect to a project.5. See projects that are not on yourmachine (register a project)6. Delete a project.

7. Create and manage users andgroups for a Rational Test data store.8. Create and manage projectscontaining Rational Requisite ProProjects and Rational Rose models.9. Manage security privileges for theentire rational project.10. Configure a SQL anywheredatabase server.
