QTP return codes.

[Terry Curran]

The usual method as recomended by Cognos is to execute the qtp and then
check the exit status
which in the Korn shell is the variable ?0 (question zero)

So your code becomes something like:

qtp auto=first_qtp
if !?0
then
   echo "Failure"
fi
qtp auto=second_qtp
if !?0
then
  echo "Failure"
fi

...

You don't actually need to check the numeric codes but they are as follows

1. Parser error
2. Exception error
3. Calculation error
4. Execution error
5. File output error
6. Terminate condition error

If the qtp program succeeds then it returns 0 (zero).

Subject: QTP return codes.


Hi all, can anyone tell me if there is a list of return codes that QTP uses;
i.e. if QTP detects a data conversion error does it return the same as a
deadlock for example. To enlighten you to the overall scenario, I have a
number
of QTP that I wish to execute from a Korn shell script and I am trying to
trap
any errors before I execute the next QTP. Alternatively is there a better,
cleaner way to achieve the same ?

I am using Powerhouse 7.33.D3 on AIX running on rs6000's.

Thanks in advance

    Ashley Dawkins.
