.net application plugin/support crashes during script playback
pseudo code: Sys.Process("Infinity").WinFormsObject("frmCATFRAMS").someobject.click(); //after the control is clicked the application performs a CPU intensive task Sys.Process("Infinity")...
- Tanya,
I was skeptical so I gave this a try.
Predictably this proposed solution had no impact on the issue I am experiencing.
If the .Find method times out during CPU intensive application processing extended properties are no longer available. I am still unable to work around this without setting the Auto-wait timeout to a value greater than the applications process time. From your code the "mainForm" in this scenario does exist, but is currently "Unresponsive" while processing....during that "Unresponsive" state I am performing a .Find on the form...
(mainForm.Find(prop,propVal,depth) )...the Find method appears to be waiting up until the auto-wait timeout and then causes the .Net plugin support to crash or become unavailable.
I was able to find a "fix" for this by increasing the projects auto wait timeout to be greater than the applications "non-responsive" load time. What appears to be happening is that the .Find method achieves the autowait timeout and then causes the .Net plugin to fail.
Pseudo code to reproduce:
1. object.Click();
//Long application load that causes the application to become non-responsive
2. object.Find(prop,propVal,depth);
3. autowait timeout is reached (application is still non-responsive)
4. application finishes processing and is now responsive
5. .Find method failed to find the object due to auto wait timeout being less than the applications load time.
6. Extended properties are unavailable until the plugin is reinitialized, Test Complete is restarted, or the test application is restarted.
Hopefully someone else finds this useful, or someone at SmartBear can reproduce the issue and get this fixed in a future update :).
