How to add TestItem programatically

a little google search, no?

Example of what  I would like  to do using scripts is: http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/55015/#Working



Here is some reasoning:

When I was using ODT approach it was done more less automatically and for the rest of the logging we used internally developed logging tool.

At this point I am exploring what newest version of TestComplete logging and error reporting has to offer and perhaps use that insted of developing our internal reporting and error handling.

Some of the readonly properties of the TestItem seem to be quite useful, but for that I have to have a very precise project TestItem structure. And I really do not want to do it manually. I am sure there is an easy solution that I am not aware of and  a hope was somebody clever can  help me with this  

Sorry, thought you were talking about tested apps. My bad. 



As far as I know you cannot do it programmatically and you can only drag&drop one item at a time into the testItems structure.

Thanks a lot. It will really help. With projects with many testcases it is unrealistic to manage everything manually and stay up-to-date all the time. On the other hand without having test cases organized, the LogItem.Status is not very useful. Thanks again for adding it to your TODO list   

Hi Tanya



do you have an idea where this feature will be included in the product? I found the reporting that is currently available in TestComplet quite useful and  there seems to be no need for us to develop our own at this time. However I found close to impossible  to manually modify TestItems every time we add a test.

 

Hi Dana,

Thanks Tanya

Do people organize tests really manually to get the advantage of stats and the summary or am I missing something? 

At the moment I have set of tests using individual folders to store the results, so, that satisfies my needs, however I did not find a way to get the summary that TestComplete povides other than manually organizing the TestItems. Is there any other way to get the same summary? 

With older versions of TestComplete and differen framework we ended up developing our own   solution. I really like what TestComplete offers in terms of reporting and would like to take advantage of it.

I'd like to add another vote for this enhancement. I have a test where I log in as several different users (the number varies) and would like the resulting test log have a project item for each user. I realize this could also be solved by being able to manipulate the log file's tree structure through script, but I wasn't able to find a solution for that either.

Hi Joe,
