    Hi,

      Before addressing the query few additional details are needed.

    1. Is it a WPF cefsharp application?

    2. What is the version of the testcomplete you are using.

     

    Did you try preparing the CEF based application link mentioned in the smartbear portal? Meanwhile you can go through the below mentioned links and inform about the outcome

     

    https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/general/preparing-browsers/cef.html

    I am working on a CEF based application using testcomplete 11.31 and so far with the links provided above and with a few workarounds able to automate the application

        Thank you for reply.

      1.We are lunching cef application from from Winform application.

      2. I am using testComplete 12

       

      I have gone through both processes

      1. Hook the application by commnad line parameter

      2. Manually the instrument of cef application

        Hello Santosh,
          If I understand correct you are having a Winform process through which the CEF based application will be invoked? In that case I am afraid that the objects will not get recognized in this scenario. In order to get accessibility to CEF based applications you have to add the CEF application under "Tested Apps" and launch that application through test complete.
        The only possible solution what I am seeing here is if you have access to your developers ask them to inject cefhook code as mentioned in Smartbear link provided earlier while building the application exe and provide the build.
