Did you notice that when you install QTP, you have ActiveX, Visual Basic and Web add-ins installed\/available by default.<\/p>\n

Now there would be many situations where you are working on some application which needs some additional add-ins to be installed. For example, let us assume that you want to automate a Java Application and for that you need to install Java Add-in. You can follow the below mentioned steps to add\/install Java Add-in (or for that matter any other add-in) –<\/p>\n

1. Go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs and select QuickTest Professional from the list. Click on Change button.<\/p>\n

\"Control

2. After you click on Change button from the Control Panel, QTP Setup Wizard would be displayed.<\/p>\n

\"QTP

QTP Setup Wizard - Welcome Screen<\/p><\/div>\n

3. Click on Next button in ‘QTP Setup Wizard – Welcome Screen’. ‘QTP Setup Wizard – Maintenance Type’ screen would be displayed.<\/p>\n

\"QTP

4.\u00a0 From ‘QTP Setup Wizard – Maintenance Type’ Screen, select Modify<\/strong> radio button and click on Next button. ‘QTP Setup Wizard – Custom Setup’ Screen would be displayed.<\/p>\n

\"QTP

QTP Setup Wizard - Custom Setup<\/p><\/div>\n

In the above screen, you will notice that all the options other that QuickTest Professional, ActiveX Add-in, Visual Basic Add-in & Web Add-in have a cross mark next to them. This means that the options with cross mark next to them are not currently installed and then ones with no cross mark are currently installed.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

5. Click on the small black down arrow next to the Red Cross for Java Add-in. Clicking on it would show a small menu with 3 options as shown in the below image.<\/p>\n

\"QTP

6. From the 3 options that are displayed, select ‘Entire feature will be installed on local hard drive<\/strong>‘<\/span>. Once this option is selected, you would notice that the cross mark next to Java Add-in is removed.<\/p>\n

\"QTP

7. Click on Next button twice. QTP would install the Java Add-in and once the installation is finished, you would see the ‘Installation Complete’ screen.<\/p>\n

\"QTP

8. Click on Finish button. The Java add-in installation is successfully completed.<\/p>\n

9. To see if the newly added add-in is available or not,open QTP and check the Add-in Manager page that comes at Start-up. Here you would be able to see the Java add-in displayed together with the other available add-ins. (If you are not able to view the Add-in Manager page at start-up, read How to Enable or Disable Add-In Manager at Startup in QTP<\/a> article)<\/em><\/p>\n

Please note that when you add a new add-in (other than the default ones) in QTP, you should make sure beforehand that you have a valid license for that add-in. This is because when you open QTP, it will first check for the license for QTP as well as the installed Add-ins. If you don’t have a valid license for any of the add-ins that you have installed, you will not be able to use that add-in.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
