End of life for QTP 8.2?

September 23rd, 2009 Posted in Testing Tools

The Question asked:

Does anyone know when the end of life is for QTP 8.2 and what type of support is currently available?

I am paying maintenance on QTP 8.2, does this also allow me to upgrade to version 10 at no charge?

Lastly, is QTP 10 and Functional Test the same product or are they two separate products? I know that Funtional Test 9.5 is QTP with the Add Ins bundled in. I am wondering if this holds true for version 10.

>>QTP 8.2 is already at the end of life (or DEAD), No vendor is offering QTP 8.2 anymore or its support, HP and HP Forums might help you out for basic issues, but everything is now changed to HP Functional tester (QTP 9.5).

I  am paying maintenance on QTP 8.2, does this also allow me to upgrade to version 10 at no charge?

>>If you are using HP Functional testing, you can upgrade to the latest version.

Lastly, is QTP 10 and Functional Test the same product or are they two separate products? I know that Funtional Test 9.5 is QTP with the Add Ins bundled in. I am wondering if this holds true for version 10.

>>In mercury days, these were sold as separate products like QTP, Winrunner & all add-ins separately…..

Later on QTP+WR+All add-ins were bundled and called as Functional testing.
