Problem with Testing PowerBuilder Application using TestComplete

Hi,

          I'm using test Complete 7 to test PowerBuilder (Window)Applications. Actually my intensionis to perform Regression Testing With TC. I recorded the TestCases with Older version Application Exe(Tested apps is older version exe) and wish to run those test cases with Newer version Application exe.(tested apps with newer version exe) In my testcase i'm using Property check for capturing the Window Caption.test cases ran properly with okd version. For changing the tested apps i did not change the tested apps in testcomple Ide. from my physical Folder location i have replaced the source code with newer version. But my test cases are failing because of changing the name mapping. Even though Window is same. Can anyone provide clarity to my question. Can any one help me how to perform regression testing? i have referred the help document.



Regards

    Hi,



    Most probably, the problematic objects are recognized by properties that have changed their values. You need to check your Name Mapping scheme (see the "Modifying Mapping Criteria" help topic) - look at the properties by which your objects are mapped and on the same properties in the Object Browser. If values of some properties in Name Mapping and in the Object Browser are different, this causes the problem. You should use only properties with stable values to map your objects.
