Hi all,

QTP: 9.0

I am using descriptive programming and would like to use recovery scenario. Recovery should call my user-defined function. Everything works fine, on error the recovery function is called. But the code inside the function is not run and in the report I see the following:

Error: Element not found.

Function call is in the report described like this:

Call the function: RecoveryFunction1
defined in: C:\QT\Library_Recovery.vbs
using the arguments:
1. The object of the current test step
2. The method of the current test step
3. The actual method's arguments
4. The actual method's result

When the error appears (and therefore recovery function is called) on an object, which is defined in repository (e.g. not using DP), recovery function is run properly.

So my question is - does recovery work only on objects defined in repository? If so, is there any other way to recover from an enexpected error when using DP?

Any help would be appreciated.

I've frequently used DP in recovery scenario's custom functions.
I usually use .ChildObjects on the function's Object parameter, and go on from there.

Are you sure the DP command is written properly? Try using it outside the recovery scenario and see if that works.
