    In terms of TestComplete this is called Connected Application and I would recommend you to read the corresponding help section (http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/56563/).

I read over some of the documentation and examples and still having some difficulties trying to figure my issue out. 



Let's say I create a basic project suite with one project and three tests.  What method would you use to retrieve a list of projects within a suite (should return one in this case).  Then retrieve the list of tests within that project (should be three in this case).



It seems like you must know what the names are in advanced before working with the items for connected apps.



One last piece of info, I'm not trying execute or even run TestComplete at this point... just trying to retrieve some pieces about a project suite outside of TC.



Thx
