  • Hi Chan,



    Currently, there is no built-in feature for that in TestComplete. You may create a keyword test or script that would perform the needed test in a loop. For instance, the following JScript code executes the DoTesting() routine for 10 minutes:



    function RepeatedTest()

    {

       var TestStopTime;

        TestStopTime=aqDateTime.AddMinutes(aqDateTime.Now(), 10);  

        while (aqDateTime.Compare(TestStopTime, aqDateTime.Now())>0)

        {

          DoTesting();

        }

    }





    Alternatively, you can execute the same test several times by creating a Test Item and setting its Count property. See the Test Items Page (Project Editor) help topic for details.



    Besides that, SmartBear is about to release a new load test automation tool - LoadComplete, where the continuous load feature is implemented visually. Join LoadComplete Webinar to learn more about this tool.

    I found there are new reports available in loadComplete but not in TC 8.5. Any reason since TC should include all testing tool?



    Thank you

  • Hi Chan,





    LoadComplete is going to be the only product intended specifically for load and performance testing of web applications.





    The Load Testing functionality in TestComplete will not evolve further.
