How to create a folders inside projectSuite/project which folders will exist on the hard drive ?

Hello Salamat,

Yes, this can be done.  It's a bit awkward however. Just create the folders in TestComplete as you need and import your scripts to those folders (from whereever they exists on your drive or network).  They will become links (in the project xml).  TestComplete keeps the project structure in an XML file.

TestComplete itself doesn’t support automatic folder creation on the disk when organizing in the UI. You'll need to manage the physical structure outside of TestComplete, but once set up, it works well with external IDEs like PyCharm. To keep things organized long-term, use naming conventions and folder structures consistently in both TestComplete and your file system.

Step-by-step workaround:

1. Manually Create Folders on Disk
2. Move Script Files into the Folders
3. Organize in TestComplete virtual folders to reflect Disk structure
4. Update the Project Script in TestComplete by "Add -> Existing Item...".

Just use Windows Explorer to create your folders, and reference them accordingly using TestComplete. 

As noted in Organizing Items Into Folders | TestComplete Documentation - 

Creating a folder in the Project Explorer panel does not lead to creating a folder on a hard drive. The Project Explorer’s folders are used for logical organization of the projects’s contents, not for physical organization.
