Add feature to create Bug/Issue in Azure DevOps from TestComplete
I had check the TestComplete documentation and could not find any feature to Create Bug/Issue in Azure DevOps from TestComplete logs directly. So can you implement this feature in TestComplete as it would be helpful to automate the process of posting bug on failure. As currently I can see it is only possible to create issue in Jira, Bugzilla and QAComplete only.Hirendra17 days agoOccasional ContributorNew Idea33Views2likes5CommentsGlobal Items in TestComplete
Every project has his Stores, NameMapping, TestedApps etc in a Project Suite project scoped. My idea is, that if you have a common objects that can be re-used by multiple projects, recordings, name mapping objects, instead of having to re-import them for every project in your suite, you have the option to also have them globally on Project Suite Level, to be then shared over the various projects instead of each project having to it's own version of Name Mapping, Tested Applications and such. Example: Project A -> user recordings, namemapping from base solution Project B --> user recordings, namemapping from base solution What it is today and what it could be: If you use global namemapping, user recording that your projects digest, then you only have to update/modify them in one place, instead of all your projects. I do would have the option still to have project scoped, namemapping, recordings etc next to the globally ones.KevinVM5 months agoEstablished MemberNew Idea71Views6likes2CommentsSupport Delphi 12

If I have a Function that has default parameter values set when I add that function into the test with Run Script Routine it should pull through the default parameter values. Currently, it just sets them all to None and sometimes you just want it to use the defaults and have to spend time setting each one. For example, if I add the below function to Run Script Routine it should automatically set user = 'Test' and id = 123 in the Run Script Routine. def TestFunction(user = 'Test', id = 123): Then if the Function is modified and a new Parameter is added with a default parameter, Run Script Routine should add the new parameter with the default at the run time. The log should show a warning like the intelligent fix does and ask if you want to apply the fix going forward. Currently, the tests will fail with an exception indicating that the parameter count is incorrect.frasd065 months agoEstablished MemberNew Idea29Views4likes0CommentsUpdate Testcomplete to support more recent browsers

TC15 can’t display the objects underneath our product, so we could not add “Checkpoints” on the objects from the product UI to validate testing requirements.

Let's say you don't like the name you gave an object in the NameMapper. When you change the name of that object, the name will also be updated in any and all Keyword tests which this object was used in. However, the name will Not be updated when used in script tests. It would be nice if the name would be updated in Scripts. Sometimes we think of better naming conventions and want to rename some objects.torus6 months agoContributorNew Idea1.3KViews22likes5CommentsShared NameMapping Object
I have a feature suggestion which might help elevate the experience of multiple people working on the same project at the same time. I find the NameMapping object is the hardest item to merge in a project even with the built-in tool it is not always easy to merge 2 versions of it together. Generally, with development and Git each person would have their own branch to work from with new features and then merge it together once done. But again this runs into the issue of merging the NameMapping object together. One of the best ways I have found to work is to have just the NameMapping folder on the network drive and the local instance of the project pointing to the network drive NameMapping folder. This allows people to work in their own branches while mitigating the issue of merge conflicts with the NameMapping object. Also, there are far fewer popups about modified files as only the NameMapping object is shared among all the testers, however then the issue comes in ether you need to copy the NameMapping folder into your local instance before committing to the repo or having the NameMapping folder in its own repo. Both are not the best to work with. As I have outlined above I have found having the NameMapping object on a network drive and then linking it to the local instances of TestComplete to be the best way to work as it allows people to work in their own branches while keeping a single NameMapping object up to date on the network drive. However, this has the issue of not including the NameMapping object as part of the local Git Commit/Push. Why not allow the best of both worlds, add a new feature where you have a local NameMapping object that is on your local PC then in TestComplete, you have the option to set up a Master NameMapping object which can be placed for example on a network drive. If there is no NameMapping object in the Master location copy the NameMapping object from the local drive to the Master location. If there is already a Master NameMapping object in the location it will tell you it will overwrite the local NameMapping object with the master. TestComplete must then monitor the master NameMapping object and if an update is made to it, the user must be notified about the change and prompted to pull the change into their local cached NameMapping object. When changes are saved to the local cached NameMapping object push them to the Master NameMapping object on the Network drive. To take this one step further integrate it into your existing NameMapping object merge tool, so for example, if I have added items to my local cached NameMapping object and I get notified that there have been changes to the Master NameMapping object let me choose to merge the changes together so I don’t lose what I have done. Then I can save the merge NameMapping object. I feel like this system will work well as it will allow multiple people to work from different branches on their local PC’s while ensuring that the NameMapping object is kept up to date. Then when the changes are Committed and Pushed the local cached NameMapping object will be included. This will mean that when the tests are run from a Pipeline like Azure DevOps even if the agent does not have access to the network drive the tests can run from the local NameMapping object.frasd068 months agoEstablished MemberNew Idea53Views4likes0CommentsAllow module variables and parameters in NameMapping
Currently, TestComplete allows to use only Project Variables to be used for modifying property values in NameMapping.

NameMapping: Add "AND" clause which would require two or more unique xpaths to be true for the element to be identified. We would like the ability to use an "AND" clause which would require two or more unique xpaths to be true for the element to be identified. The reasons for this area as follows: We have had limited success using the “AND” condition within an xpath statement. We have had numerous cases where the expression is syntactically correct and confirmed by TestComplete in the NameMapping Annotation but it fails to find the specified text within the node/object. In other cases, it finds the desired object (viewGroup w/ text) but fails a property checkpoint using a cmpContains (text), returning a null string even thought the NamedMapping found the object based on that defined text. Example: xpath: //*[@className='android.widget.ScrollView/android.view.ViewGroup/android.view.ViewGroup[2]/android.view.ViewGroup' and @text="SR Zone Controller"] xpath: //*[@className='android.widget.ScrollView/android.view.ViewGroup/android.view.ViewGroup[2]/android.view.ViewGroup' and contains(@text,'SR Zone Controller')] The second and more concerning issue is the case where an object is discovered using a combined expression as shown below that correctly locates the object viewGroup which contains some specific text but fails a checkPoint operation. Example: xpath: //android.widget.ScrollView/android.view.ViewGroup/android.view.ViewGroup[2]/android.view.ViewGroup[*[@text="SR Zone Controller"]] We have had some success finding element using "FindElementByXPath, but this method is much more involved and difficult to implement. It would be so much easier for the user if an “AND” clause was added to the NameMapping XPATH statement as an enhancement to the “OR” clause. Note: We are working with a Mobile App and don't have the luxury of ObjectIDs or CSS for object identification.PetGin4 months agoOccasional ContributorNew Idea21Views1like0CommentsPlease support Chrome V107

we have been working with TestComplete for over 6 years now and it looks like we will be expanding rather than reducing test automation with TestComplete. We have different teams for different software products. There are often 2 people working on the same test automation project within a team. As we have integrated the TestComplete projects in the TFS source code management, it is no problem to check files in and out. What does cause us difficulties, however, is working on a file at the same time. This is about keyword tests but more about name mapping. Due to the XML structure and the GUIDs it contains, it is not possible to merge files after separate editing. However, this function would be very good and would significantly increase the effectiveness of everyday work with TestComplete. Now our request: Can you create a way to set up the project structure in such a way that merging is possible? Or can a tool be created within TestComplete that can handle the merging? There is the "Merge with" function for name mapping, but that is not what I mean and does not work in that sense. What would really make sense would be a project structure that allows files to be merged with a normal text editor or merge tool if they have been edited by 2 or more users at the same time. Can you implement something like this for TestComplete in the future?TestOfficer8 months agoOccasional ContributorNew Idea64Views2likes0Comments- twackerla2 years agoSenior Member714Views11likes1Comment
