Cloning a Project makes a copy of a shared unit?

I am using one Name Mapping file that is located in \ProjectSuite\NameMapping\.





When I clone a project that is using this shared unit, it makes a copy of the NameMapping file and puts it into the cloned NameMapping folder.   The project now has it's own Name Mapping file. 



Is this the correct behavior?

  • Hi Ed,





    Yes. Despite the fact that the Name Mapping file is located in the project suite folder in your case, it is added to an actual project, not the project suite. As cloning means that TestComplete will create a copy of all the files included in the project, your Name Mapping file is copied too.
