engadgetHD reports that Disney has jumped on the Hulu train… finally. Here’s to more selection available to stream to my TV. Sure, Hulu is no replacement for the broadcast television, but it definitely helps in the pinch when you missed your favorite show or were unable to record it. Just as we’d heard, Disney has worked out a deal with Hulu that includes taking a piece of the streaming video site, joining NBC Universal, News Corporation and Providence Equity Partners as owners and bringing Disney TV shows and movies to the site. Expect Lost, Desperate Housewives, Greek, General Hospital and the like so show up after the deal closes, no word on any delay periods and the only content not mentioned in the deal appears to be ESPN related properties. Also sadly missing from the announcement? Any word of increased HD streaming on Hulu, lets hope they take a page from ABC.com and get right on that.  My office has recently upgraded to QualityCenter 10, as several members of our team were having issues connecting to QC9 using Internet Explorer 8 with Windows XP SP3. This was as good a reason as ever to switch. We have been automating our smoke test suite in QuickTest Pro 9.5 over the past year and have recently upgraded to QTP10. The integration of QTP10 to QC9 was seamless and we had experienced no issues executing older scripts in the newer version of the tool. Of course, once we edited an older script, it was upgraded to the latest version. This is understandable. Once we upgraded to QC10, however, we started experiencing some trouble. All of our prior scripts had started to fail due to external script references not being found. Also, many scripts couldn’t find the associated object repository. This caused some minor panic in our team: potential lost work, hours of required rework, etc. We next attempted to edit our scripts in order to debug and figure out what we would have to do to fix these issues. That’s when we saw this message: This is the first time I had heard of the QuickTest Pro Asset Upgrade Tool for QualityCenter. After doing some research, it was determined that this tool was included on the QualityCenter 10 Installation DVD. The purpose of this tool is to upgrade all QTP scripts currently in your QualityCenter project. You will need to login to your project as a project admin and this tool must run on a machine that has QuickTest Pro 10 installed. There is another important step that took me a bit to figure out, mainly because I failed to read the documentation. Your local QuickTest Pro installation must have the folder pathing setup to find all external references your scripts may use. This includes paths (in and out of QC) for shared object repositories, function libraries, and other scripts. If this is not set up, the Asset Upgrade Tool will not be able to process your scripts. To set up your folder pathing, in QTP go to Tools –> Options –> Folders. Executing the upgrade tool is very straightforward, but please read the documentation carefully. The general process is to login to your project, analyze your project, then upgrade your project. It presents a full report of the analysis and upgrade process for your review. It is highly recommended that you make a backup of your project before your upgrade, as you never know what may happen. The upgrade process is done on an active project, which is different than many other QC upgrade tasks. That being said, ensure that no one is accessing the project while the upgrade is running. Once we had everything set up correctly and processed the upgrade, we found that we were now able to open our older scripts to edit in QTP10. We were also able to execute the scripts without error.
I know it has been quite a while since I have posted anything to the blog. I get busy with work, so it falls by the wayside. Also, Twitter has recently become a new fad of mine… as you may have noticed. In an effort to keep the blog somewhat fresh, I decided to integrate my Twitter feed into my posts. Unfortunately, I screwed up during the configuration and set the plugin to create a new blog post for each and every tweet… big mistake. So, I apologize for the flood of posts through the RSS feed yesterday. That particular issue has been resolved and now we should all see a daily digest of my daily tweets. Let’s hear it for technology! Another update I have made is for our mobile users… all none of you. If you access this blog from your web-enable mobile device, you will now see a much cleaner interface suitable for the tiny screen. I must say, I like the clean look of it. I will attempt to post more often than I have been.
