Alternative for Wait Statement

[Veekay]

Hi,

My Web application sometimes takes 30 seconds to load a page and sometimes its 50 seconds and more.

so while using Wait(30) it fails sometimes and if i use more time..i have to wait till its completed..

Is there any other alternative statement for WAIT, so that once it is completed, QTP will move to the next execution ?

Thanks in Advance
Vijay

use waitproperty method.
This method is useful for test run synchronization. Unlike the Exist ro wait methods, the WaitProperty method enables you to synchronize the test run based on a specific object property. For example, you can instruct QuickTest to wait for a particular string to appear in a static text control:
' Wait up to 30 seconds for the string "Ready" to appear in the "Status" text control.
Window("Test").Static("Status:").WaitProperty "text", "Ready", 30000

Hi vijay,

sync method: Waits for the browser to complete current navigation.

Code:

'Wait till Gmail browser launches
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Sync

Exist statement:We can enter Exist statements to instruct QuickTest to wait for a window to open or an object to appear. Exist statements return a boolean value indicating whether or not an object currently exists.

Code:

'Wait till Gmail browser exists
Do while  
Browser("title:=Gmail: Email from Google").Exist(1) = False  
Wait 1
Loop

Wait Property method:wait until the specified object property value=expected value

Code:

Browser("Yahoo! Mail: The best").Page("Yahoo! Mail: The best").WebEdit("login").WaitProperty "Value", "Inbox", 3000
