Ways to send keyboard input to an application using QTP

In most of the applications while testing using automation tool like QTP we need to pass a keyboard stroke through script.

Normally we will be using Analog recording to enter Keyboard strokes, but i recomment not to use record and playback instead you go for functional calling method (Like making the script a dynamic while entering a keyboard stroke, which i will be mentioning how to make it a dynamic later in my other post).

We can use different type of methods as per our requirement.


1. Use the simplest .Type ( key ) to send keyboard input.

Eg: Window("Notepad").WinEditor("Edit").Type micF5

Above example explains how to enter F5 command.
