Sergei -
Thanks for replying. In LoadComplete, I need the scripting/programmability that TestComplete provided, especially the ability to extend my load tests to do the things I need.
For e.g., for the application I'm testing, the business wants me to do the following:
1. Run a Search
2. Based on the Results of the Search, execute one of 4 actions. It could be different on each iteration.
The reason they want this is because that's how the application is used in production. The tool must be able to emulate this behavior closely. With only Record-and-Play in the current version of LoadComplete, no such thing is possible (or so I was informed by Product Support).
I was very happy with the old version of TestComplete which provided me the ability to modify the OnRequest & OnResponse handlers. Not to mention the extensibility of being able to log messages etc. I can't find a means to even log a message to the output in the new LoadComplete. This is very counterproductive.
I can understand SmartBear taking features *out* of TestComplete so as not to cannibalize the revenue from LoadComplete. But how come that feature wasn't also put *into* LoadComplete at the same time?
