Creating test data

Hi,



Completely new to Test Complete and automation. I have created a short test and ran with my web app, the test creates a user record only. It runs the test ok and completes it, but I was expecting it to create the data within the app itself. If i open the web app, I dont see the user record I created in the test.



Is this what should happen?



Thanks,

Jon

    If you performed all steps correctly and the record was not created, then this is a bug in your tested application.

    Thanks, that is what I thought, however if I perform the same test manually on the app, it does create a record without any errors.

    What would be likely to cause this? If the test is not completed, it should not say it has passed successfully.

    Is there something I need to add to the test to confirm it has actually created data?

    Hi,



    When the system create a records, does system return a successfull message, if so add check point to verify the message into your scripts.
