Running tests with TestExecute rather than TestComplete

I have a test environment that has both TestExecute and TestComplete installed. I use connected applications technology to use the TestComplete engine to run my tests. But is there a way to tell the engine to use TestExecute rather than tie up a TestComplete license? I want to ensure the few TestComplete licenses we have are available when writing new tests whereas the TestExecute license is for the test environment only. But I want to keep TestComplete installed on the test environment in case I ever need to use it on there. Is there a way to set the order in which the licenses should be used?

    Hi Mat,


     


    This may do the trick :) You can request a temporary TestExecute license from our Support team to activate it on another LM PC. 


     


    Another idea is to specify the product (TC or TE) that will be used by their program IDs. 


    TestComplete's ID - TestComplete.TestCompleteApplication.9


    TestExecute's ID - TestExecute.TestExecuteApplication.9


     


    Refer to this thread - there is sample code there that may give you some clue.
