Ignoring Runtime Error

Hi ! How can I ignore Runtime Errors ?  In my project, sometimes TestComplete (or TestExecute) is a way too fast for the webapp, and when the code tried to do some thing (like toArray() on an obj...

    FindAll returns an array of the tested objects, otherwise it return an empty array, which will have a length of zero.

    Within your function, you should also check that page actually exists, so that the method FindAll works.

    Also, be careful when reassigning variables ar = ar.toArray()

Change your code, do so something like this

function getElement_global(...)
{
    var objects = page.FindAll(prop, value, level, refresh);
    if (objects.length > 0) {
        var ar = objects.toArray();
        ...
    } else {
        // objects is null
    }
}

You need to check the returned value of FindAll, in this case the length. Anything greater than zero, implies that it has returned something. 

Also, the code that calls this function needs to deal with null value too.

Doesn't work : 

And I think it's normal. The resulting object (when FindAll doesn't find something) has no length property. 

EDIT : okay I understand ! Sorry for the confusion ! Find methods return a Stub Object when they found nothing, and FindAll methods always return an array. (empty if nothing found).

So in this case, the error isn't here, but in the "page" object passed as parameters.
