na......post tht site as a new topic is better than posting all the
Q&A in tht site wat do u say all?

[ajithcharles]

I meant posting a Question fromthat site .. pple with experience canadd a practical sense to the definition. . .. i hope u got what i mean

Hi,


Thanks for the suggestions. As I am working on WinRunner only and am not aware of any other testing tool, I thought it would be nice to point to a place where we can getmore information regarding the topic. I don't mind posting the answers to the above questions.


I'm working for a product development company and hence my answers could conflict/agree with any other member's opinions. That's the reason why I din't post answers for that.


I am still interested to share my knowledge and also to learn new concepts from the world.
