Multiple browser version problems

Question

Hi All,I'm currently doing some investigative work for an extensive piece of automation for a client of mine.&nbsp;One issue they have flagged up is as follows. They have (in the past) done some automation with QTP. The problem was, the tests were developed on "machine A" - running IE8. They then wanted to run the tests on "machine B" - running IE10.Bang!Can anyone offer any hints and tips for creating tests in TestComplete that will be resilient against browser version "anomolies"?!Thanks!

You can use separate NameMapping configuration for each browser version

The structure of the elements themselves will be the same, but the will correspond to different real objects according to the browser pecularities.

Thanks Gena - I think that's just what I need. The downside I guess is a bit of a development overhead in the early days, but going forward should allow for a fairly easily maintained test structure ... :)
