Repository Types:

1. Shared Object Repository: [.TSR]

A Shared Object Repository contains test objects that can be used multiple actions or scripts or throughout the automation framework. For better maintenance purpose, shared object repository is the best option.

2. Per-Action Object Repository: [.MTR]

A Per-Action Object Repository contains test objects that can be used in one specific action.

NOTE:

1. Objects can be Added, Renamed, Updated and Deleted to any of the Object Repository.
2. Even Object Properties in the Object Repository can be Added, Renamed, Updated and Deleted.
3. For using Shared Object Repository, first we learn all the necessary objects in the application and stores in a specific location in the Automation Framework and the same to be mapped at File à Settings à Resources Tab.
4. Even Library Files [.vbs] also can be mapped at File à Settings à Resources Tab.
5. Object Repository Manager helps for saving, updating and deleting the object repositories.
6. You can merge two or more object repositories with the help of Associate Repositories feature provided by QuickTest.
7. In the object repository, you can make Regular Expressions to Objects or Object Properties to make them dynamic.
