Alternate IDE

So I'm using python to script my tests and the built in IDE/code editor is not very good especially when it comes to code completion of custom classes.

 

Is there any way I can use an alternate IDE like Visual Studio and import TestComplete's  'standard' library? or anything resembling this? TestLeft doesn't have all the goodies TestComplete has like region checkpoints.

    Hi,

     

    No, there is no way for this.

    Either you are using TestComplete and has access to TestComplete-specific objects (Sys, Checkpoints, Project.Variables, etc.) or you are using third-party editor. In the latter case you still will be able to type a code like Sys.WaitProcess("notepad", 30000) but without any additional support from the editor.
