Playback causes Application Error Crash


I've got an application running (LBPasswd.exe) and when I'm registering a key-word test everything goes smoothly, the test is recorded properly. When running the test, I get this application error (see attached screenshot - it's a fatal crash) coming from either the OS or our application.


 


I've googled for this issue and the only thing that made sense is that there may be an interroperability issue between .NET and VB6. I guess that TC9 was developped using .NET technologies but it's only my guess.


 


What is puzzling me is that by itself, the application does not generate any error messages. It only occurs when playing back a recorded test.



I've opened the code on my end to see if anything quirky is done memory-wise with the VB6 objects and their destructions.



Any help is more than welcome !

  • Hi Patrick,


     


    As far as understand, the error doesn't appear when you work with the application without TestComplete, right? In this case, please follow the steps below to help us investigate this:


    1. Run the Report Generator tool located in <TestComplete>\Bin\ReportGenerator.exe.


     


    2. Select the "Launch/attach to TestComplete" option.


     


    3. Run another instance of the Report Generator tool.


     


    4. Select the "Track application launch" option, specify your application executable name and click Next. The Report Generator tool will wait until the application is launched, and then will track all events in it.


     


    5. Reproduce the problem.


     


    6. Click the "Generate..." button in all instances of the Report Generator tool and save reports to a local folder.
