Is there a way to fail the test by matching 2 strings?
Hi everyone,
I want to compare 2 strings and if they are not matching I want my test to fail? Is there a method to that with TestComplete & Javascript ?
Forum Discussion
Hi, When you evaluate and decide to fail, throw a message in the log as an error, and than stop execution as described in this article
You can accomplish this with one line of code provided you already have the values in variables. I don't do JavaScript so I can only offer an example in VBScript. The method you'll be using is aqObject.CompareProperty
aqObject.CompareProperty Method | TestComplete Documentation (smartbear.com)Call aqObject.CompareProperty(String1, cmpEqual, String2, true, lmError)That will log an error if the strings do not match.
You could always just post an error to the logs if it doesn't match like this:
EDIT:
You can then also add the value of the strings you wish to compare into the logs
But this just giving a result as -1, 0 or 1 I need my test to fail at that point and see a failure log in Script Test Log
just like aqObject.CheckProperty or OCR.Recognize.CheckTest methods..Check the result, and output the appropriate message using either Log.Error(), Log.Warning() or Log.Message(). Or use https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/reference/program-objects/aqobject/compareproperty.html
Thanks for your time and valuable inputs.
