Testing Fly Out Menu in QTP

Question

I am looking for ideas to trigger the actions for fly-out menus using QTP.

I am testing a Web App using QTP. The application has \"cascaded\" or hierarchical fly-out

Answer 1

If Click doesn't do the job then there are probably other events that the web app is expecting that are not simulated by QTP. One way to work around this is to turn on Web's Device Replay mode:

Setting.WebPackage("ReplayType") = 2 

After this line in the test whenever QTP sees a Click step it will replay it by moving the mouse over the element and simulating a click so all the events that are fired by human beings will be fired.

To go back to the default event replay mode set "ReplayType" to 1.
