I have been doing some research about QTP and have not been able to find a definite answer; others I have spoken with say QTP is not the way to go.
What I am trying to do is test a 'pipeline' of tools that move process and move data from an .mdb, extract the data and parse it out into tables in a SQL database. My question is all of these tools run via 'faceless operation', there is no GUI; each tool, there is six, knows when to process the data by a trigger on the state of each file.
Is QTP the best tool to use to 'manually' start each tool, process the data and then start the next tool - taking the data to the 'finished' state? Again there is no GUI to reference in testing.
Thanks, I apologize if I posted this in the wrong place - first post
