I have an <empty> Object Tree after pulling a TC project from a git repository.

I'm relatively new to TC, but have used other UI automation tools

 

Scenario: Creating/Sharing TC scripts between two machines (A & B) via git repository

 

Machine A

- Newly created TC Project with ONE simple TC Keyword script

- Mapped objects, Images, and associated files with this ONE script

- Script successfully replayed on Machine A

- Checked TC project into a git repository via Git Gui

- All files on local repository matches master

 

Machine B

- Successfully pulls TC project from master repository

- Machine B's local repository matches the files on Machine A's local repository, which matches master

- Open the TC proj and ran the Simple TC script.

- AUT opens but keyword  Keyword script failed

 

With the AUT open on Machine B, I used the Object Spy tool and selected a known mapped button.  I selected Highlight in Object Tree and it could not find it.  I went directly to the Object Tree viewer and it is blank.

 

If everything I created on Machine A is in the git repository, and Machine B pulled everything from the repository, why is my Object Tree blank on Machine B?  What did I do wrong or did I miss a step in pushing my changes to git?

 

Your help on this matter is greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

     

    So the problem that TestComplete won't recognize your application on Machine B, however it works on Machine A.
    I bet you have some 'machine-specific' properties in NameMapping. Check top-level objects in NameMapping repository as well as their properties.

      Thank you for that piece of information.  I've done Name Mapping at a lower level to handle dynamic GUIDs.  Let me take a stab at making the changes at a higher level.
