What alternatives exist for running QTP tests in batch?

automated-tests, qtp

Solution

The canonical way to do this is via Quality Center, if you don't have QC you can use QTP's automation model from a `vbs` file. The documentation for this is available in `Start -> Programs -> QuickTest Professional -> Documentation -> Automation Object Model Reference`

Problem

We are in the process of implementing automated regression testing for our applications, and are looking for a solid batch-testing utility. We have QuickTest Professional 10.0, and it comes bundled with 'Test Batch Runner' which appears to be deprecated. It appears in previous versions there was 'Multi-Test Manager', which has been discontinued as well. What alternatives exist, if any?
