HelloIs it possible to add/manage test items using script &nbsp;rather than TestComplete Project Editor?&nbsp;

Hi Dana, &nbsp; Currently, there's no way to add test items programmatically. We have a corresponding suggestion in our DB - I've added your vote to it. Thanks!

Example of what &nbsp;I would like &nbsp;to do using scripts is:&nbsp;http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/55015/#WorkingHere 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 &nbsp;a hope was somebody clever can &nbsp;help me with this&nbsp;&nbsp;

Sorry, thought you were talking about tested apps. My bad.&nbsp;As far as I know you cannot do it programmatically and you can only drag&amp;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 &nbsp;&nbsp;

Hi Tanyado 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 &nbsp;there seems to be no need for us to develop our own at this time. However I found close to impossible &nbsp;to manually modify TestItems every time we add a test.&nbsp;
