Object Repository Concepts in qtp

Object Repository: It is a place where qtp stores the objects(Ex:buttons or Check Boxes) information.

There are two types of Object Repositories

i).Local Object Repository

By default if we record any test,that goes to Local Object Repository.

We can edit or delete object properties. Only that test can use that object repository.

If we create shared object repository,other tests can also

use that shared object repository. We can’t edit object properties.
