    Hello again, 

    I just find out that the issue is cause by not closing the driver in the methods that I called in my code. 

    DDT.CloseDriver(DDT.CurrentDriver.Name);

    This line solved issue for me.

So we have now established that there is nothing wrong with DDT. 

The main issue, is the code that you have written to perform the automation test with the browser. Since we have no idea about the web application and what it does, you will have to diagnose the issue yourself - somewhere in this post Marsha_R mention inserting a delay. TC will just execute each line of code, regardless whether the UI control appears or not. So you will have instruct TC to wait for the UI control to appear, before providing any input. 

Debug your script, to see how TC is interacting with your web application, and also see how your web application is responding. Also, do what Marsha_R has mentioned.
