i am setting up the environment for Testing Flash Web application. And i am following
Preparing Flash and Flex Applications for Testing with the Debug Version of Flash Player.
In that, i couldnt understand this step.
what should i do in that step, and why it is required
The reason being is that TestComplete does not support testing a flash application directly. It needs to use the web code via a web page to access the flash application. So, by creating a wrapper page that you then run that contains your flash application, this gives TC access.
As for "what should you do in that step"... it's a step that needs to be done by someone who has access to the flash development environment. There are four options presented as ways of creating that page. Pick the one that works best for you. Probably easiest for a non-developer would be the manual creation one.
Thanks Robert.
But I didn't understand the first point mentioned in Manual Creation
Replace MyApp.swf with the name of the tested application’s SWF file.
here, what is meant by "name of the tested application's SWF file"?
Your flash application is most likely compiled as a file with an extension of SWF. In that sample HTML file in the help topic, there is a spot that says "MyApp.swf". Say your application is compiled as a file called "widget.swf". Put that in place of MyApp.swf.
If you don't actually have a SWF file... then you might not have a flash application that can be tested in this method.
