Hi Paul,
In addition to Tanya's reply, also consider if your test code uses: a) dynamic and/or b) waiting for namemapped element.
Simple code samples that illustrate the above (untested VBScript):
Assume that you need to get the reference to the Aliases.Project.Panel.Control namemapped element:
a)
Dim strControlName
Dim oControl
strControlName = "Control"
Set oControl = Evaluate("Aliases.Project.Panel." & strControlName)
b)
Dim strControlName
Dim oControl
strControlName = "Control"
Set oControl = Aliases.Project.Panel.WaitNamedChild(strControlName)
I.e.: Make a backup of your namemapping file first, then clean it and then immediately check if all tests are still can be executed.
