Log is not visible in testcomplete

Hi,

im using Testcomplete 11. Several times recently, unfortunately not reliably reproducable, Testcomplete will not show the log of a testrun.

 

The test is executed at night using windows sceduled tasks and a batch script to launch testcomplete. The test has been run (I get emails from the test) but it will not show up in the logs in testcomplete itsself. However when I browse to the location on the harddrive where logs are located, there is a folder created for that testrun (time & date are correct). The difference to logs which do show in testcomplete is, that there is no file RootLogData.dat.

 

Has anyone ever encountered this issue?

 

Thanks,

Christian

    Most likely this reason:

    The tested application crashed and test complete cant handle that, meaning the Runner is still trying to execute the test but cant (it just sits their).

    After a while the pc gets turned off (again windows task). Testcomplete does not get the chance to fully write the log.

     

    Why the Runner can not continue after this application crash I dont know.

      hi,

       

      on the "GeneralEvents_OnLogError" maybe you could write "Runner.Stop(True)"

       

      The boolean true means that it stops only the current test and jumps to the next one.
