How to Add check points

Checkpoint —Specifies the time interval (in seconds) during which QuickTest attempts to perform the checkpoint successfully. QuickTest continues to perform the checkpoint until it passes or until the timeout occurs. If the checkpoint does not pass before the timeout occurs, the checkpoint fails.

For example, your application or Web site may include a form with an edit field into which the user types the user name. You may want to test whether your application or Web site reads this information and displays it correctly in a dialog. You can insert a text checkpoint that uses the built-in environment variable for the logged-in user name, to check whether the displayed information is correct.
