Difference between QTP and WINRUNNER?

QTP:

Quick Test Professional is a software testing product now owned by HP. the tool allows the user to build up a suite of automated test scripts that can be run with repeated and consistent results. it is good for regression testing whenever new patches or upgrades to apps are in test.

Win Runner:

HP/Interactive WinRunner is an automated functional GUI testing tool that allows a user to record and play back UI interactions as test scripts.

As a Functional test suit, it works together with HP QuickTest Professional and supports enterprise Quality Assurance.

HP WinRunner software is standard, functional testing software for enterprise IT applications. It captures, verifies and replays user interactions automatically, so you can identify defects and determine that your business processes work as designed.

The software implements a proprietary Test Script Language (TSL) that allows customization and parameterization of user input.
