HP QTP 11.5 new Features
The latest version of HP-QTP 11.5 (UFT) Unified Functional Testing has hit the market and here are the brief points about new features in the tool
 
Earlier HP has 2 tools
1. QTP for GUI applications functional testing  
2. Service Test for web services Testing (GUI less testing)
In QTP 11.0 they have introduced a new concept that the service test script (written in service test) we can call in the middle of the QTP-script, so we can have GUI Test developed in QTP and GUI Less script developed in services test can run in the same Test.
Now in
QTP 11.5 Unified Functional Testing (UFT) = Quick Test Pro(QTP) + Service Test(ST)
This is the major change we see in QTP. So now QTP and Service Test will be a part of UFT 11.5 software. This has been done to do end-to-end testing.  QTP (GUI testing tool) and Service Test (API testing tool) will be available from a single interface, so we no need to have 2 different tools now.
New Modern IDE
QTP’s IDE  the interface has changed completely new look and feel looks like below, the IDE window has
a) have a new IDE aligned with modern dev IDEs (like Eclipse).
b) have many new features such as script editing, coding, MDI, checkpoints, auto completion etc
 
 
Image Based Automation – Using HP UFT Insight
Using HP UFT insight, you can simply recognize controls in the application by their appearance. This feature would enable you to record any object displayed on the screen, even if UFT is not able to recognize the Object’s technology.
Debug multiple scripts
This is one more important feature. We can now debug two or more scripts at the same time from within UFT’s IDE.
Checkpoint on PDF files
Apart from existing checkpoints, we can now directly compare PDF files and run checkpoints on them.
Support Open Source CI Systems
HP UFT 11.5 will support open source Continuous Integration(CI) systems like Jenkins and Hudson. [For people with non-development background - CI is a practice normally used in a multi-developer environment where all developer codebases are merged with the main codebase several times a day]
Mobile Testing Support
Realizing the ‘explosive’ growth of mobile (smart-phones + tablets) platform, HP is putting a lot of focus on this new age tech. UFT 11.5 will provide a better support for mobile testing. With the help of HP UFT Mobile, HP claims that you will be able to create mobile platform agnostic scripts, hence a script created for iOS would be expected to work for Android. The mobile application testing solution will support emulators as well as real devices. The real devices can be sourced from the public cloud of shared real devices and/or private cloud of dedicated real devices.
