What is ER Diagram
The Entity-Relationship (ER) model was originally proposed by Peter in 1976 [Chen76] as a way to unify the network and relational database views.
Simply stated the ER model is a conceptual data model that views the real world as entities and relationships. A basic component of the model is the Entity-Relationship diagram which is used to visually represents data objects.
Since Chen wrote his paper the model has been extended and today it is commonly used for database design For the database designer, the utility of the ER model is:
it maps well to the relational model. The constructs used in the ER model can easily be transformed into relational tables.
it is simple and easy to understand with a minimum of training. Therefore, the model can be used by the database designer to communicate the design to the end user.
In addition, the model can be used as a design plan by the database developer to implement a data model in a specific database management software.

What is ETL
ETL is a short for Extract, Transform and Load. It is a data integration function that involves extracting the data from outside sources , transforming it into business needs and ultimately loading it into a datawarehouse
ETL is an abbreviation for "Extract, Transform and Load".This is the process of extracting data from their operational data sources or external data sources, transforming the data which includes cleansing, aggregation, summarization, integration, as well as basic transformation and loading the data into some form of the data warehouse.
E: Extraction of data from the homogeneous/heterogenous sources.
T: Transforming/modifying the source data by applying some transformations like Filter, Expression, Router, Joiner,
L: Loading the Transformed data into corresponding Target tables.

What is FrameWork
It basically depends upon the type of Framework being used - datadriven, modular, keyword based or hybrid Framework.
Test automation Framework is a set of assumptions, concepts and practices that provide support for automated software testing.
Test script modularity Framework:
The test script modularity Framework requires the creation of small, independent scripts that represent modules, sections, and functions of the application-under-test. These small scripts are then used in a hierarchical fashion to construct larger tests, realizing a particular test case.
It is called as modular since we are breaking the scripts into modules - a few of which are compile modules or reusable. This is the simplest of all Frameworks.
Data Driven Frameworks:
Test scripts are executed and verified based on the data values stored in one or more central data sources or databases. These databases can range from datapools, odbc sources, csv files, excel files, dao objects, ado objects, etc.
The establishment of several interacting test scripts together with their related data results in a Framework used for the methodology. In this Framework, variables are used for both input values and output verification values: navigation through the program, reading of the data sources, and logging of test status and information are all coded in the test script.
Thus, the logic executed in the script is also dependant on the data values.
Keyword-driven Framework:
Keyword-driven Framework separates much of the programming work from the actual test steps so that the test steps can be developed earlier and can often be maintained with only minor updates, even when the application or testing needs change significantly.
It consists of driver, control scripts etc
It is set of rules defined for developping and organising the test scripts.There are diffrent types of Framework are available namely modularized type of framework, library based, data driven, keyword driven and hybrid framework.
You can use any of these Framework for automation. It depends on the project and its criticality.
Hybrid Framework:
Hybrid Framework represents combination of other different framework in order to maintain code/scripts. You can choose some external files for updation of fields in the projects/application(say excel sheets or text files) and you need to import the file to the script, so whenever u want to update the script by different set of value you just need to update the external files which will effect on the automation script

Seelct the relevant subject folder created before in QC
Click on OK
Login to QC, in Test lab, select the testscripts uploaded and click on Run
Create a new Subject in Test Plan

What is FrameWork in QTP
1)Framework defines how to approach for scripting .Framework may change form company to company & project to project.
It may be recording or descriptive
…………………………………….
Automation Framework is nothing but Common Name Conviction where all the team members should follow same names(like OK ...)while updating in the object repository in order to
avoid confusion.
……………………….
Automation Framework is nothing but the way we r doing automation is represented in a systematic way with proper planning like Initial Setup(setting up shared
repository..), Tool configuration,Test Data files,library
files,Script generation,Enhancements,Synchronisation,Exception
handling,Batch test,maintaning the scripts....all whichever
related to our automation plan.
…………………………………
Automation Framework is nothing but a set of guidelines designed by expert to accomplish a task in an
effective,eficcient and an optimised way. there are 4 different types of Framework 1)linear 2)
modular 3)keyword 4)hybrid max we follow keyword Framework
keyword Framework is nothing but creating a software
structure like
1)scripts 2)object repository 3)test data 4)recovery
scenario 5)log files 6)library files etc
1)create scripts and save it in scripts component
2)create shared o.r and save it in o.r component
3)create test data and save it in test data component
Etc after creating all these components include the files or
components to script or qtp and execte the script
………………………………….
Automation Framework is one....it is a test plan for automation testing which drives entire automation testing
in a sytemamatic and scientific manner to execute the test script like Main Script--->DriverScripts--->Environment variables, Library files, Functions, Test Data(data table -
Parameterization.
Here MainTest Script will call the DriverScripts
DriverScripts will call the required Env, Lib files,
Func.....etc.
So the entire test will be executed/carried out in a flow like explained above.(This comes under Keyword Driven Framework).
………………………………………….
In real time projects, we use to call, Framework as a folder. This folder contains the components such as ,
Object Repository, logs ,test data,script,result...etc. so whatever files are created to develop a script are stored
in a separate folder, which is nothing but a Framework.
