Hi Shanmugavel,
Since TestComplete 8.50, Silverlight applications are patched automatically ("on-the-fly"). However, there are some limitations that prevent TestComplete from patching a Silverlight application automatically. Most likely, this is your case. Here are the possible reasons:
1. The used browser is not Firefox or Internet Explorer. As far as I can see from your screenshot, this limitation is not true for your application, so, it's just for your information.
2. The tested web page downloads the .xap file directly from the web server. For example, if the browser moves this file to the cache memory before TestComplete starts working with this file, the file will be downloaded from the cache memory and auto-patching will fail.
3. The HTTPS protocol is used. In this case, auto-patching will not work.
4. One more reason is that the Silverlight application was launched before TestComplete. In this case, auto-patching will not work. The fact is that TestComplete tries to patch the application automatically when it downloads the .xap file.
5. TestComplete also does not recognize those Silverlight applications that were not packed to a .xap file and use the .xaml file as the source file. As I can see from your screenshot, this limitation is not true for you, so, it's just for your information.
If none of the above-mentioned is true, please try doing the following:
* Upgrade to the latest version of TestComplete (ver. 8.60). You can download it from our web site: http://smartbear.com.
* If upgrading doesn't help, try patching the .xap file manually and reload it to the web server. For detailed instructions on how to do this, please see the Preparing Silverlight Applications for Testing help topic.
* If the approach described in this topic doesn't help, please send a request with a sample application to our support team, so that we can reproduce the problem and find a solution faster.
Thanks.
