Failing Tests since Feb 17

Well im not sure how to really put it properly, but somehow since this Monday all my VM and tests are failing randomly with either a :
Exception occurred. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80020009 (DISP_E_EXCEPTION))

OR

Value does not fall within the expected range.


All the tests were behaving properly the day before.

I had version 15.72.60 installed, but before that date and it seemed to be working correctly.

What I tried so far without any luck:

  • Rebooting my machines
  • Loging Off/On of the TE accounts
  • Reinstalling TE with the same version
  • Reinstalling TE 15.71.4 (same problem)

Running the test manually with testcomplete  doesnt seem to be having this issue. 

I've seen other report of this issue which seems to say that it is an issue with V15.72.60  but if this was the case i would expect that rolling back would fix the issue. 

Any help appreciated on how to resolve this.

    I recommend opening a case with support.  There have been quite a few posts here about the latest version.  It would not be abnormal for the app to have not rolled back 'clean'.

      Well initially i thought the issue was with TestExecute, but thinking about it i highly think it is the TestAdapter since my builds were working find one day and suddenly all failing. Will open a case as mentionned.

    We are also having the same issue, I have created a support ticket, for us, every version update comes with new surprises.

      Yes this is awful, it happens so often, to the point that im scared of updating anything.

      In that case since im using classical pipeline, im being forced to use their updates of the testadapter.

      If only they would release the versions so that im offered a choice so that i can decide to use prior version.

      This comes at the worst possible time as we are currently in a release cycle and all our teams are monitoring our builds which now all fails...

        They have rolled back the test execute version, just in case if it helps anyone.

    Would be nice if testcomplete could have a tracker like
    https://www.jenkins.io/changelog-stable/
    You can press the sun if update goes ok, press cloud if you have issues and lightning if you have major problems and had to roll back. It has saved me many times, Especially in the past when we relied on a lot of unstable plugin. I always wait until at least 20 suns
