Overview

Extends IDispatch.


Applicability

Commonly used with QualityArchitect.

QualityArchitect is required for use of this interface.


Summary

This interface contains the following properties:

Property Description
IsDefined Boolean. If true, the verification point's metadata is fully specified. If false when a PerformTest method is invoked, the framework calls the DefineVP method on behalf of the test script in an attempt to get a full set of verification point metadata from the tester. Note that this property applies to the verification point metadata, not to the data itself that is captured in accordance with the metadata.
IsValid Boolean. If true, indicates that the verification point was correctly instantiated, successfully captured, and is in a valid state -- otherwise false.
VPComparator String. The progID of the IVerificationPointComparator component for this verification point.
VPData String. The progID of the IVerificationPointData component for this verification point.
VPDataProvider String. The progID of the IVerificationPointDataProvider component for this verification point.
VPDataRenderer String. The progID of the IVerificationPointDataRenderer component for this verification point.

This interface contains the following methods:

Method Description
InitializeFramework Specifies to the verification point framework the IDs of the components used by this verification point.
InitializeVP For internal use only.
