detecting COM automation in testcomplete?

Is it possible to detect if testcomplete is controled via COM?



That is, have a jscript function check if it's running standalone, or via COM?

    The integration object, is when controling things from the outside world



    What I want to do, is to have testcomplete/testexecute know if it is being used via COM automation, and have some functions (or tests) run, only when it is used via COM, and not when running standalone.

    Hi Thomas,



    Try playing with the following TestComplete COM objects:



    Sys.OleObject("TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication", "").Manager

    Sys.OleObject("TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication", "").Manager.RunMode

    Sys.OleObject("TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication", "").Manager.State

    Sys.OleObject("TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication", "").Visible
