Introduction
This
document is intended to give some brief on writing the utility functions for
basic functionalities of Siebel complex control objects using QTP. We have
written the few basic library functions for Siebel complex controls such as
Sieblist, SiebCalendar and siebcalculator. In automation, it is important to
automate the basic functionalities to ensure that the particular object is
present then do appropriate actions upon it. In this document we would like to
share utility scripts for complex controls (siebPicklist, siebCalendor,
siebList and siebcalculator) and script to connect to oracle database to manage
the test data in the siebel database.
Complex Control Objects:
Following are
complex controls that appear in the Siebel application.
Utility
functions for siebcalculator, SiebCalendar, SiebList and SiebPickList are
covered in this BOK.
These
objects are the quite complex controls present in most of the siebaplets in
Siebel application. Since the occurrence of these objects is more, utility
functions for these objects will be more efficiently reused. Following check
points are covered in the below mentioned function libraries.
1.
Set the control object to logical name.
2.
Check if object exists. If the object exists, select the object.
3.
If the object does not exist, raise an error message.
Advantage:
These
scripts can be reused in any script by supplying appropriate input data.
Script for siebPickList: The siebPickList object is a child of the SiebApplet Object, SiebList Object,
and SiebCurrency Object.
So following utility functions can be associated to the scripts having its
parent objects siebApplet object, Sieblist object and SiebCurrency object.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Input
Parameter : objSiebApplet (Object) - representing Siebel Applet object
uListObject - representing the logical name
of siebPickList object
uData - representing the data to be selected
from pick List
Return
Value : True /False
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Public

getObjectProperties( "SiebPickList ",uPickListObject,4)

available."

Else

For i = 0 to uCount -1
If i =0 Then

objControlRef.GetItemByIndex(i)

the SiebPickList " & uPickListObject & " First Item "

Script
for SiebList
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Input
Parameter uSiebList- representing the
logical name of SiebList
'Description Returns the rows count
of the siebList.

error

Script for SiebCalculator:
The SiebCalculator object is a child of the SiebApplet Object, SiebList Object,
and SiebCurrency Object.
So following utility functions can be associated to the scripts having its
parent objects siebApplet object, Sieblist object and SiebCurrency object
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Input
Parameter strSiebToolbar (String) - Logical name of SiebToolbar Object
'Description sets the SiebToolbar object to logical name
& checks whether object exists and clicks the toolbar item
'Calls error Handler in case of any error
'Return Value True /False
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
public Function

End if

End Function
Script for SiebCalendar:
The
SiebCalendar object is a child of the SiebApplet Object, SiebList Object,
and SiebCurrency Object.
So following utility functions can be associated to the scripts having its
parent objects siebApplet object, Sieblist object and SiebCurrency object.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Input
Parameter objSiebApplet (Object) - representing siebel Applet object
strEditObject (String) - representing the
logical name of SiebText object
Description sets
the SiebCalendar object to logical name & checks whether
object
exists. If the object exists, the Popup method opens the object and selects the value and closes the object.
Calls error Handler in case of any error
Return Value True /False

Pulling Data from a Siebel Table
If you want to pull out all the visible data from a
SblTable or a Sieb tabular object (such as a SiebList object) into an external
file, you can loop through each cell in the table and then save the information
to an external file.
Public
Function Retrivedatasiebeltable(Byval usiebList,urowcount,ucolumncount)
Set objControlRef =
objSiebApplet.SiebList(uSiebList)
Siebel Database Connection using QTP:
Following
script is used to connect the database and insert the data which will be used
for testing. Basically this script is used to populate the test data. Similarly
one can write functions to update the data in the database, to retrieve the
data to test if the correct data is loaded in to the database or not.
Public Function
InsertData(dbStatus,dbSubStatus,dbOrderNumber,dbServiceId)
UID =
datatable(“Userid”,dtGlobalsheet).value
Pwd =
datatable(“Pwd”,dtGlobalsheet).value
ConnectionString="Provider=MSDAORA.1;User
ID=”UID”; Password=”Pwd”;
Data
Source=Datasource;Persist Security Info=False"
Set
DBobjconn=Createobject("ADODB.Connection")
DBobjconn.ConnectionString
DBobjconn .open
If
DBobjconn is Nothing Then
InsertData="DBcouldnotbeconnected"
Else
Dim dbTableName
dbOutputId=DataTable("OutputID",dtGlobalsheet)
If Not dbOutputId ="" Then
dbDataId=dbOutputId
Else
dbDataId=DataTable("InputID",dtGlobalsheet)
End If
dbEnvironment=Ucase(DataTable("Environment",dtGlobalsheet))
dbTableName="DATA_BANK"
dbCreatedBy=DataTable("User_ID",dtGlobalSheet)
dbExcel=DataTable("ExcelFileName",dtGlobalSheet)
DbArray = Split
dbStreetNumber=DataTable("StreetNumber",dtGlobalSheet)
dbPostCode=DataTable("PostCode",dtGlobalSheet)
strCAD=" "
dbInsertQuery="Insert
into "& dbTableName &"(Data_Id,Status
,SubStatus,Order_Number,Service_Id,Created_By,Modified_Date,Environment,SCHEDULE_ID,PostCode,StreetNumber,CEASE_CADATE)
Values('"&dbDataId&"','"&dbStatus&"','"&dbSubStatus&"','"&
dbOrderNumber&"','"&dbServiceId&"','"&dbCreatedBy&"',SYSDATE,'"&dbEnvironment&"','"&dbArray(0)&"','"&dbPostCode&"','"&dbStreetNumber&"','"&dbCAD&"')"
DBobjconn.Execute
(strInsertQuery)
DBobjconn.Execute
("Commit")
InsertData=True
End If
DBobjconn.Close
End Function
