When you try to set qtest property "log" while the qtest object is

Error: Insufficient permission to perform this operation
This implies it could work with "sufficient permission". It can't.
Change the error message to:
Error: Property 'log' can not be set now
Can it be set later? ... if not, that error message is almost as confusing
as the original one. Maybe it's better to tell the users *when* they can set
the property?
I assume it's mostly about "This property cannot be set." and "This
property can no longer be set." ?
