Error Handling in QTP

There are 2 ways in which we can handle errors in QTP.

1. Err object.
2. Recovery Scenarios.

Sample code to handle the error is given below

If err.number <> 0 Then

print err.description

else

print "there  was no error in above statement"

end if 

Whenever any error occurs in the script, We get the message window with detailed description of the error.

But when we are executing the scripts, we do not want this message box to appear to come as this will halt the execution of the script.

To prevent message box from appearing, we use below statement above the block of code.

On error resume next

more statements

With On error resume next in place, QTP script runs even though error exists in the code. We can capture those errors using Err object as stated earlier.

When you are debugging the scripts, you should not use On error resume next statement as it will suppress the errors and you will not be able to figure out the issue in your script.
