Hi Deva,

 

Testing Windows Store application requires TestComplete’s Web module. Is it installed and activated?

Hi Tanya,

 

Yes, both desktop & web modules are installed. Refer below for the image,

As told earlier, we have also enabled 'Enable support for testing windows store applications (requires restart)' under test complete options and added 'DirectUIHWND and Windows.UI.Core.CoreWindow' to the UI Automation of current project properties. We get process listed as in the below image.

    Deva,

    Check the class name of the VSyncHelper window in TestComplete’s Object Browser, and try adding it to the UI Automation list of accepted window.

    Also, please check that you enabled the Enable support for testing Windows Store applications property in the current project settings. Sometimes, people change it in the default project settings.

    Does this help?
