For example: If you are testing Java based UI controls, you would need Java add-in. For Siebel app, you need Siebel add-in. UFT is quite versatile and supports a large number of technologies. This, in-fact, is one of the main reasons behind the popularity of <strong>UFT.<\/strong> For instance, Selenium, though an extremely popular <strong>automation testing tool<\/strong>, is limited to web based testing and does not support windows based applications.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the complete list of add-ins and technologies supported by <strong>UFT:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>.NET:<\/strong> You would need a .NET add-in to test UI objects in Silverlight, .NET webforms, .NET Windows Forms and WPF apps.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Active<\/strong> X: You would need to load Active X add-in. Note that Siebel and Active-X add-ins if loaded together, may cause conflict during record time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Delphi:<\/strong> A Delphi add-in is required to test Delphi controls created in Delphi IDE based in Win32 VCL library.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flex:<\/strong> A flex add-in is required to be loaded to test applications opened in Adobe Flash player debugger. This add-in has a large set of dependencies on Adobe flash player, Adobe flash player debugger and Adobe Air. Make sure you go through the UFT_AddinsGuide.pdf available at C:\\Program Files (x86)\\HP\\Unified Functional Testing\\help\\UFT_AddinsGuide.pdf. Additional Reference: Complete support matrix for UFT.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Java:<\/strong> You need a Java add-in to test Java UI objects. Here it is important to mention that UFT does not depend on server side technologies (use a tool tip here to define server side technology) at all to identify objects. Hence an application built in server side technologies like Java, PHP won\u2019t affect UFT at all.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mobile: HPE<\/strong> has progressed a lot when it comes to mobile testing. UFT Mobile add-in uses Mobile center to test mobile applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oracle:<\/strong> Enable Oracle add-in as well as Web add-in ( and optionally Java add-in) to test Oracle applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>PeopleSoft:<\/strong> You would need to enable PeopleSoft add-in to test PeopleSoft applications. This mimics web add-in and no special configuration is required.<\/li>\n<li><strong>PowerBuilder:<\/strong> PowerBuilder add-in is required to test PowerBuilder applications. This is a windows based add-ins.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Qt framework:<\/strong> Qt add-in can be used to test applications developed using Qt framework for mobile devices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>SAP Solutions:<\/strong> You can use the SAP Web testing support provided with the UFT Add-in for SAP Solutions to test user-interface objects in Web-based SAP applications. These applications include SAP<\/li>\n<li>Enterprise Portal, Internet Transaction Server, SAP Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and the Interaction Centre Web Client.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Siebel:<\/strong> Siebel add-in can be used to test both standard interactivity and high interactivity applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Standard Windows:<\/strong> UFT can test any application developed using Win32 API. It does not require use of any extra add-in hence you will not find a Standard windows add-in in the Add-in manager.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stingray:<\/strong> The UFT Stingray Add-in recognizes and records on supported Stingray Objective Grid and Stingray Objective Toolkit controls.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Terminal Emulator:<\/strong> You would need a Terminal Emulator add-in to test objects in terminal emulator applications. Make sure you configure your TE settings so that it can work with UFT.<\/li>\n<li><strong>UI Automation:<\/strong> Use UI Automation for Windows applications that have implemented UI automation provider interfaces.<\/li>\n<li><strong>VisualAge Smalltalk:<\/strong> You can use the UFT VisualAge Smalltalk Add-in to test VisualAge Smalltalk user-interface controls.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Visual Basic:<\/strong> Use Visual Basic Add-in to test Visual basic applications. This is a simple Windows based add-in with no dependencies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Web:<\/strong> This is one of the most frequently used add-ins in UFT. For any web based application testing, you need to load web add-in.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Windows Runtime:<\/strong> You can use Windows Runtime add-in to test Windows store applications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a ref=\"magnificPopup\" href=\"http:\/\/vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/qtp-Add-In-Manager.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-56073 size-full\" title=\"qtp add in manager\" src=\"http:\/\/vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/qtp-Add-In-Manager.png\" alt=\"qtp\" width=\"582\" height=\"568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/qtp-Add-In-Manager.png 582w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/qtp-Add-In-Manager-300x293.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 582px) 100vw, 582px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are certain default add-ins that are shipped with UFT installation (Also shown in the red box in the image above) :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>ActiveX<\/li>\n<li>Mobile<\/li>\n<li>UI Automation<\/li>\n<li>Visual Basic<\/li>\n<li>Web<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/practice\/startPracticeTest\/Selenium-WebDriver-Questions\">Free Selenium Practice Tests | Go To Selenium Practice Test Now<\/a><\/h3>\n<h3>Apply for Selenium Certification Now!!<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-Selenium-Professional\">http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-Selenium-Professional<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Add-In Manager Add-ins in UFT are a way to ensure UFT identifies objects in a corresponding environment.
