Enhanced Object Spy Functionality: You can now use the Object Spy to spy on multiple objects during a single spying session. When you click the pointing hand, QuickTest is hidden, but the Object Spy remains visible. You can hover over different objects in your application and view the methods and properties of each one. When you want to return the focus to QuickTest to view methods and properties of a particular object, you click the object with the pointing hand.
Web Drag and Drop Support: You can now test drag and drop operations in your Web-based application using the new Drag and Drop methods, available for all Web test objects (except the container objects Browser, Page, and Frame).
You can use these methods to drag one Web object onto another Web object, to drag a Web object from one location in a frame to another, or to drag an item within a Web object to another location within that object (drag and pan).
Text Recognition Support for Windows-Based Environments: In recent versions of QuickTest Professional, text-capturing test object methods, reserved object methods, text/text area checkpoints, and text/text area output value steps were not available for objects in Windows-based environments (Standard Windows, Visual Basic, ActiveX, .NET Windows Forms, ActiveX, and Terminal Emulators).
In QuickTest Professional 9.2, you can use the text and text area checkpoint or output value commands to verify or retrieve text in your Windows-based objects. Alternatively, you can use the testobject.GetText (for Terminal Emulator objects), testobject.GetVisibleText, or testobject.GetTextLocation test object methods, or the TextUtil.GetText or TextUtil.GetTextLocation reserved object methods to capture the text you need.
When capturing text for a text/text area checkpoint or output value step, or using one of the above mentioned methods, QuickTest tries to retrieve the text directly from the object. If QuickTest cannot capture the text this way (for example, because the text is part of a picture), it tries to capture the text using a new OCR (optical character recognition) mechanism.
Whenever possible, it is highly recommended to check text from your application window by inserting a standard checkpoint, output value, or GetROProperty method for the object containing the desired text to retrieve the value of it's text (or similar) property.
