How to manage Errors as not or Warnings with Testcomplete
Hi everyone in SmartBear Community,
Sorry for my aproximate poor, or roughly English. I hope you will understand me !
I have a simple Test Result question with an "WPF" application called "PI.UI.exe" made by my compagny.
I made some tests with this APP "PI.UI.exe".
This app depends on system environment and, sometimes, takes time to open or close.
So today I want to improve my tests to get more informations about application launching and closing.
I made these 2 python scripts which are detecting some expected objects :
START
import time
if Aliases.PI_UI.FrmPIMenu.Exists:
Aliases.PI_UI.FrmPIMenu.Focus()
else:
Log.Message("Slowddown detected with application launch, waiting 5 seconds")
time.sleep(5)
CLOSE
if not Sys.Process("PI.UI").Exists:
Log.Message("Application closed correctly")
else :
Log.Message("Application is still open. Waiting 5 seconds before Kill process")
time.sleep(5)
Sys.Process("PI.UI").Terminate()
It works well, but in normal case it return a Red Error in the log because Process PI.UI is not found.
I would like to manage and bypass this Error.
What I want is that TestComplete ignore this control and make the test Results GREEN instead of RED.
Do you me know if it's possible ?
This will make my robots happy

You can control by different ways:
- use the event, General events -> onLogError and when the error message is the wanted to ignore then you can lock the log system
- use the Log.Enabled property to switch off/on the logging system
- use a try/catch/finally to intercepet already known errors
Each one has advantages and disadvantages, try them to learn them and choose the best suited to you :)
Below on on my complete event management, look the part about skip
/* --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gestionnaire des évènements d'erreur - Prend en charge les répétitions de messages identiques - Prend en charge les conditions d'ignorance de la remontée d'erreur - Prend en charge la transformation d'erreur d'object inexistant en simple avertissement - Transmet une capture écran au log - Applique une mise en forme spécifique --------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ function GeneralEvents_OnLogError(Sender, LogParams) { // Message d'erreur identique alors on met de coté if (LogParams.MessageText == Globals.LASTERRORLOG) { Globals.SAMEERRORCOUNT++; LogParams.Locked = true; } else { // Gérer les erreurs que l'on souhaite ignorer let skip = false; for (let i = 0; i < Globals.MESSAGETOSKIP.length; i++) { skip = skip == false ? aqObject.CompareProperty(LogParams.MessageText, cmpContains, Globals.MESSAGETOSKIP[i], false, lmNone) : true; } // Condition pour ignorer remplie if (skip) { Log.Message(LogParams.MessageText); LogParams.Locked = true; } else { // Transformer les erreurs d'objet inexistants en warning if ((Globals.IGNORENOTFOUND) && ((aqObject.CompareProperty(LogParams.MessageText, cmpContains, "Unable to find the object", false, lmNone)) || (aqObject.CompareProperty(LogParams.MessageText, cmpContains, "The object does not exist.", false, lmNone)))) { Log.Message(LogParams.MessageText, LogParams.AdditionalText, pmHigher, qa.system.logWarning, screen); LogParams.Locked = true; } else { // Gérer les répétitions if (Globals.SAMEERRORCOUNT > 1) { Log.Message("Erreur '" + Globals.LASTERRORLOG + "' répétée " + Globals.SAMEERRORCOUNT.toString() + " fois !", "", pmNormal, qa.system.logInfo); } Globals.LASTERRORLOG = LogParams.MessageText; // Dérouter le gestionnaire d'évènement avant de faire un log d'erreur let f = GeneralEvents_OnLogError; GeneralEvents_OnLogError = null; // Récupérer la capture d'écran existante ou en générer une let screen = qa.system.lastExceptionScreen != null ? qa.system.lastExceptionScreen : Sys.Desktop; let addInfo = ((LogParams.AdditionalText == null) || (LogParams.AdditionalText == "")) ? qa.system.lastExceptionStack : (LogParams.AdditionalText != qa.system.lastExceptionStack) ? LogParams.AdditionalText + '\n' + qa.system.lastExceptionStack : LogParams.AdditionalText; Log.Error(Globals.LASTERRORLOG, addInfo, pmHighest, qa.system.logError, screen); Globals.TESTRESULT = false; GeneralEvents_OnLogError = f; Globals.SAMEERRORCOUNT = 0; LogParams.Locked = true; } // Réinitilaliser la capture d'écran et la stack qa.system.lastExceptionScreen = null; qa.system.lastExceptionStack = ""; } } }In both sections of code, you should be using a "Wait" method before testing for "Exists".
So, replace
if Aliases.PI_UI.FrmPIMenu.Exists
with
if Aliases.PI_UI.WaitAliasChild("FrmPIMenu", 20000).Exists
and replace
If Sys.Process("PI.UI.exe").Exists
with
Sys.WaitProcess("PI.UI", 20000).Exists
Doing an "Exists" check the way you were doing it won't work... you can't check the "Exists" property of an object that does not exist... So, the "Wait" processes return a "stub" object if the object is not found with the "Exists" property set to False.
