IE 11 crashes now after converting projects from JScript to JavaScript

I am one of the lucky guys who ran into the JScript performance problem after updating my windows 10 to version 1803.

https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-General-Discussions/TestComplete-and-Windows-10-April-2018-Update-version-1803/td-p/166281

 

Smartbear support suggested to convert my projectsuite to JavaScript. After a few modification:

https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/scripting/specifics/javascript-for-jscript-users.html

 

The tests are running again but I encountered another problem. I got sporadically IE (11.228.17134.0) crashes when using the Close() - method on the browser object. 

Testlog messages are:

The iexplore.exe process crashed. (Exception code: 0xC0000005.)

The process "iexplore" was closed.

 

 

After several IE crashes the IE freezes and the test execution stucks.

Anyone has an idea how I can fix that?

 

Thanks in advance!

    Are you closing IE at the end of your test?  I know Chrome starts getting cranky if there are many copies open at once.

      Hi Marsha,

       

      thanks for your reply.

      Yes I use the Close() method at the end of a testscript. Each test opens and closes the IE (clear cache, delete history,...) in order to have the same starting point.

      In my test runs there are always only one instance of IE open.
