Automating JMP Software testing?

We use JMP application for statistical analysis. I am trying to use QTP (record/playback) for this. But it does not work. Once it opens the application and tries to open a file, the JMP application shuts down. We compare two CSV files and generate matched pair analysis of Mean for various parameters.

Any recommendation on how to proceed?

If you do not have to use the QTP tool for this job, I'd recommend either

  1. Automate JMP using OLE automation to produce the results and analysis reports. Look in the JMP install dir under Samples\Automation\ for examples.

or

  1. Create a .jsl script file to produce the results and run jmp.exe c:\myscript.jsl and call the JSL Quit(); function to shut down when you're done.

That's what I see from the additional details you provided.

1) It's NOT a test automation job. QTP here is used only as GUI interaction tool. So may be you should consider first tool like AutoIt. It's free, by the way, and also has record/playback capabilities you needed from QTP.

2) Steps 27-41 are routine operations. Step 42 ("The matched pair differences should be zero") is a question, that requires investigation, especially if pair differences ARE NOT zero. How were you going to automate that using record/playback?

Thank you, Albert Gareev
