Pulling Test Data from a GitLab Repo

I would design my pipeline to either pull down from source code repository or from network share all related pieces (automation project, data, binaries, etc...) to set up the environment, than when ready I would execute my automation run.

If I understand it correctly, you are trying to have TestComplete project during the test run pull down data from GitLab and copy binaries from network drive. In that case you can achieve this using a git clone or git pull command. I have not tried the bellow example.

function PullFromGitLab() {
  // Create a shell object to run command line operations
  var shell = Sys.OleObject("WScript.Shell");
  
  // Define the local path where the repo should live
  var repoPath = "C:\\TestEnv\\DataRepo";

  // Check if the folder exists
  if (aqFileSystem.Exists(repoPath)) {
    // If it does, navigate there and run git pull
    var pullCmd = 'cmd.exe /C cd /d "' + repoPath + '" && git pull';
    Log.Message("Running: " + pullCmd);
    shell.Run(pullCmd, 0, true);
  } else {
    // If not, clone the repo into that directory
    var gitUrl = "https://gitlab.com/yourgroup/yourrepo.git";  // Replace with your actual repo URL
    var cloneCmd = 'cmd.exe /C git clone "' + gitUrl + '" "' + repoPath + '"';
    Log.Message("Running: " + cloneCmd);
    shell.Run(cloneCmd, 0, true);
  }
}

Note: on the agent or VM, per-configure Git and authentication. Also make sure you're using an HTTPS URL with a personal access token (PAT),
example: https://oauth2:YOUR_TOKEN@gitlab.com/yourgroup/yourrepo.git

P.S. if you like my post give a like, and if it solves your problem mark it as a solution.
