Question 4. What Is Model Based Test Technique?
Answer :
Model-based testing is an application of model-based design for designing and optionally also executing artifacts to perform software testing or system testing. Models can be used to represent the desired behavior of a system under test (SUT), or to represent testing strategies and a test environment.
LoadRunner TutorialQuestion 5. How Does Tosca Testsuite Supports Model Based And Risk Based Testing?
Answer :
Tricentis Tosca helps you to define your test cases by first scanning the application. The automation model contains the automation logic which is decoupled from the test logic specified as a test case. Once the required models are defined, they can be used to execute both manual and automated test cases with input & verification data. These models are dynamic, synchronized with the application under test, and can be updated to reflect any changes in the application, thereby eliminating the maintenance challenges of traditional approaches.

When using the command xb value what is the meaning of the value inside the
When using the command {XB[Value]}, what is the meaning of the value inside the[]?The name of the Buffer. The name of the Buffer. What are the correct steps for using ExplicitName? 1.Add the Configuration ParameterExplicitNameto the Module Attribute 2.Set the Value to True or define a Value Range 1.
XBuffers require the syntax {XB[<Buffername>]} and the ActionMode Verify. The Buffer name may include numbers, but must not consist only of numbers. To re-use the value that you saved to an XBuffer, use the syntax {B[Buffername]} .
This preview shows page 34 - 37 out of 43 pages. for this is {XB[Buffername]}. With {XB} you must always use the ActionMode Verify, NOT Buffer.
Tosca allows values or control properties to be saved to a global buffer for variables and to be extracted at any position during test execution. Any existing buffer values can be accessed via the Settings dialog (see chapter "Settings - Engine").
