Adding objects to a local object repository:
An object can be added to the local object repository in one of the following ways:
1. Record some actions on the object; this will automatically add this object to the object repository. If you do not need the recorded statements in your script, you can delete them and it will not remove the added object from the object repository.
2. Add objects manually.
1. Go to Resources -> Object Repository.
2. In the Filter combobox, select “Local Objects.”
3. Go to Object -> Add Objects to Local.
4. Click on the object to be added to the repository.
5. If the Object Selection window appears, select the desired object, and click
6. If the Add Object to Object Repository window appears, select the appropriate option:
To add only the selected object, select the “Only the selected object” radio button. To add the selected object and its child objects of a specified type, select the “Selected object and its descendants of type” radio button. Then, select the checkbox next to the child object types that should be added.
7. Click
3. Manually define a new test object.
1. Go to Resources -> Object Repository.
2. In the Filter combobox, select “Local Objects.”
3. Go to Object -> Define New Test Object.
4. Select the appropriate Environment for your test object. For example, to add a Link object, select “Web.”
5. Select the desired test object class for the new object.
6. Enter a name for your test object.
7. Fill in the Test object details as needed. The Test object details area automatically contains the mandatory properties defined for the object class in the Object Identification dialog box. You can add or remove properties as required, and define values for the properties.
To add properties, click the “Add description properties” button (with the + icon). Select the properties to be added and click
To remove properties, select the properties to be removed, and click the “Remove selected description properties” button (with the X icon)

Note:
When you manually define an object, QuickTest Professional will not automatically add the object’s parent. If the parent objects are not present, you will need to define them as well. Once the objects are added to the repository, you can drag-and-drop them to their appropriate positions.
4. Add the object using the Active Screen.
1. In the Active Screen, right-click on the object to be added.
2. Select “View/Add Object.”
