    The answer is:

     

    It depends.  There are certain changes in objects, features, supported controls, etc., between version of TestComplete.  If you're using something that is only in TestComplete 14, then yes, they will fail.   But generally speaking, code written in 14 can run in 12....

    ...that is, assuming that you're not trying to develop a project (MDS or PJS) file in 14 and run it in 12... that is not supported.

    A rule of thumb... code written in lower numbered versions is fully supported in higher number version.  The reverse is not necessarily true and should be avoided if possible.
