    Hi,

     

    Unfortunately, in TestComplete IDE auto-completion for python works only if variable was declared or imported on the top level of the module:

     

    from some_module import variable1

variable2 = 222


class A:
    def __init__(self):
        self.variable3 = 333


def foo():
    variable4 = 444


'''
Auto completion will work only for variable1 and variable2
'''

    You can create the feature request for this case.
