Get all files stored in a folder inside Stores>Files

Hi,

I've got some files in Stores>Files.

To have them a little bit organised I've created folders (virtual folders because physically they are still in the root folder of Files in TestComplete project).



My question is.. Can I somehow get an array with all the files from an specific folder, instead of all the files within Stores>Files as Files.FileNamesList() does?



Thanks.

    Hi Sergi,

    to my knowledge there is no way to do this. Folders are only for the "by hand" management of the files under TC.



    As workaround I suggest you add a common prefix to the name of the files you want to  get together, but I agree this is not "optimal".



    If there is a suggestion to increase the role of the folder under Stores>Files, I agree to increase its ranking :-).

    Hi Christophe,



    in my case it would be very useful because there I have, for example, a folder for each version of my test object. Inside each folder there are some files(variable amount and filename for each version).

    Now, in my scripts I have to know the name of each file inside a specific folder.



    Every time I have a new version (thus a new folder) I have to have a hard-coded list of the available files in a particular folder.



    What I want to achieve is to hard-code only the name of the folder and be able to get dynamically the list of files inside a folder.
