Loading Custom QuickTest Professional Add-in When Starting Test From Quality Center

Whenever QuickTest Professional (QTP) is launched from Quality Center (QC), QTP is launched with the default addin ... that is Web Addin (mostly). This can be modified. There is a Template that QC launches which has this addin configured. So Modify the QuickTest Professional Add-in template test to your Addin Settings.

Here are the steps you will need to follow to modify the QTP add-in template test:
1. Launch QTP without connecting to QC.
2. Open up the relevant template from the file system. For example, if you are using QTP 9.1, you need to open up: "\Program Files\Mercury Interactive\QuickTest Add-in for Quality Center\bin\Templates\Template91". You will notice that the last two digits of the script name conform to the version of your QTP. 
3. Once opened, go to File->Settings. 
4. In the Properties tab, click the Modify button and add the relevant add-ins.
5. Apply the changes and save the script. All your generated scripts from QC will now include those add-ins.
