No too long ago, I’ve published a recommendation regarding a small utility written by Tarun Lalwani – a resizer for the QTP intellisense pop-up.
It seems that HP’s QTP development team has noticed the review, checked out the utility, and have incorporated a similar feature into the next release of QTP. In the upcoming QTP 10 (Atlantis), you’ll be able to resize the intellisense popup just like you resize any other window / pane – just grab the border and drag. QTP will remember the last size you’ve set, even after you close it completely. This is a very welcomed feature, and while it may seem small at first, it can have a cumulative effect on our everyday productivity.
Now, beside demonstrating the blessed (and uncommon) ability to integrate new features into an ongoing schedule, I think this is quite a remarkable event in another aspect. It shows that HP is attentive to the QTP community’s needs. So if you have an idea for a feature or improvement – sound it out! While not every whim and desire will be answered, the good people at HP are listening, and you never know what might make a difference.
Thanks to Tarun Lalwani for his remarkable work, and to HP’s development team, for their willingness to listen and improve QTP and our work experience with it.

I have a suggestion for an improvement! I use QTP primarily for testing both SOAP based and RESTful web services, so I’m constantly dealing with XML checkpoints. I find that the XML Checkpoint Properties dialog is far too small for viewing a majority of the XML structure verification. So, I’m constantly resizing the XML Checkpoint Properties dialog so that I can obtain resonable viewing area of the checkpoints properties. Furthermore, as I move from one XML checkpoint to another the dialog does not retain the previous size that I was using. Therfore, my suggestion is to allow the size of the XML Checkpoint Properties dialog to be larger by default and retain the previous size of the dialog.
Thanks,
Tim Payne.
