Steps to move from Gmail to Hotmail



Some of the top reasons to move from Gmail to Hotmail:
  • Hotmail & Facebook work well together. You can update your Facebook status, chat with Facebook friends, view their updates, and comment right from your Hotmail inbox. You can't do this from Gmail.
  • You can easily share lots of photos and large attachments. Hotmail lets you share hundreds of photos or other files in one message using the integrated online storage from SkyDrive. You can't do this in Gmail.
  • Hotmail works great with Office. Using the Office Web Apps, Hotmail lets you view and edit Office docs for free right in your inbox. Gmail doesn’t work well with Office.
  • Hotmail lets you get a handle on graymail. With customizable categories and scheduled sweeps, you can quickly clean up things like newsletters, social updates, and daily deals so you only see the mail that really matters to you. Gmail doesn’t have Sweep.

How to make the switch from Gmail to Hotmail in three easy steps

  1. Create a Hotmail account. If you don’t already have one, you need to create a Hotmail account. The best way to do this is to get a new email address either @hotmail.com or @live.com. Or, if you already have an email address you want to keep using, you can keep using it and sign up here. You don’t have to use our domain.
  2. Import your old messages from Gmail. You’ll probably want to keep your old email and contacts so we’ve made it simple to bring them in. TrueSwitch is an easy tool which will import your email and contacts and forward any new email to Hotmail for 90 days. Go to the TrueSwitch site and follow the steps there. When you sign back in to Hotmail, you’ll notice that it’s beginning to import your emails (this could take a few hours if you have a lot of emails to bring over).
  3. Connect your Gmail account. This step is optional, but if you want to make sure you receive future messages from Gmail, you can have Hotmail automatically get all new emails that are sent to your old Gmail account. These are the steps to connect your accounts:
a. In your inbox, click Options and then More options.
b. Click Sending/receiving email from other accounts.
c. Click Add an email account.
d. Provide your Gmail account details.
That’s it—you’re ready to go! And you can add other accounts too—from Yahoo, AOL, or other providers.

Difference between Ranorex and QTP


  • Ranorex has much higher object identification capability and supports far more technologies.
  • Ranorex has image-based recognition.
  • Ranorex has Record-Replay functionality (Ranorex Recorder) for Windows and web applications
  • Ranorex provides seamless integration for 32 & 64 bits
  • Ranorex is far more powerful, being built on the .NET Framework
  • Ranorex does not require you to learn a scripting language, because it is written in pure .Net code. Therefore, allowing you to use one of three languages (C#, VB.Net, and Iron Python)
  • Ranorex offers a more flexible and standard test automation interface.
  • Ranorex based test automation modules can be created as a simple executable builds, with a standard .NET compiler.
  • Ranorex is a pure .NET API.
  • Ranorex automation library (API) is based on .NET, therefore, allowing you to integrate it into existing test environments and to combine existing automation tasks with Ranorex.
  • Ranorex has smart and easy to read automation code, because of the use of Ranorex repository, which separates GUI identification information from automation code. The code is easy to read, object oriented and therefore acceptable for typical developers too.
  • Ranorex provides you the ability to do test automation in your own environment.
  • Ranorex uses standard and modern programming techniques.
  • Ranorex allows testers with less programming knowledge, to create professional test modules with Ranorex Recorder.
  • Ranorex Recorder provides user code actions , which allows developers to provide special validation or automation methods for their testers with less experience in programming.
  • Ranorex targets to get everything automated.
  • Ranorex offers great object recognition, especially for modern GUI technologies like: .NET 2.0, WPF, Silverlight, Web Applications, Adobe Flex/Flash, and Support for 3rd party controls like Infragistics or DevExpress.
  • Ranorex supports all the technologies through the Ranorex Plug-Ins.
  • In the future, we’re planning to create an open and documented interface for our users to write their own Plug-Ins, which provides the maximum of object recognition for your own applications.
