Testing field visibility based on checkbox selection - anthony1carr - 04-02-2012
I have a page which will make input fields visible/invisible depending on the user type selected using checkboxes.
We currently have 13 different user types to select from and up to 12 fields for each user type.
In a nutshell, I would like to:
- Select user type A
- ensure all fields are present for that user
- Deselect user type A and select user type B.
I'm relatively new to QTP, so i'm looking for the best way to approach this problem. Should I use data tables, creating a column for each user type with field names in each corresponding row ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, some code examples would be great.

Hi,
It would be better if u use datasheet or separate .xls file which will handle all the different combinations required for ur application because in future if some changes come then it would be easier for u to handle the changes.But please code in such a way that if any extra field is added for a particular user then it should be handled in datasheet only not in ur code .,, ur code must be so generic.
