Stop and rerun current item - missing number of retries configuration

Hi all,   I've updated Test Complete 14 to the version 14.71 (14.71.275.7 x64), and I would like to use the new "Stop and rerun current item" functionality:  https://support.smartbear.com/testcomp...

    Hi simonaferrara,

    We've just released a new TestComplete version. Could you please download and install it on the computer?

    I would recommend that you uninstall the previous TestComplete version, remove the folder where the tool was installed, reboot the computer, and install the new version after that.

     

    Please let us know the results.

Hi,

 

someone can give us information if it is mandatory to uninstall and re-install all Test Complete to have a new feature configuration available on a version update?

I think that new features should be available without the need of a complete reinstallation, also with the inconvenience to lose the configurations explained before.

If it is needed to do this for an actual bug, I hope it will be considerate and keep in mind in the future, that could be important to give the possibility to have all the new functionalities by updating the version.

 

Thanks!

Simona

    Hi TanyaYatskovska , 

    so is it not enough to update the version using this form?

     

     

    Is it mandatory to follow the procedure to uninstall and reinstall all Test Complete, as you explain?

    I'm asking confirmation before starting it, because it requires time, also to download the exe, so it would be easier to just update it. 

     

    Regards,

    Simona

      Hi simonaferrara,

      You can give it a try. This issue was fixed in the latest version. So, the update should work.

      I gave the steps just in case to set up the new TestComplete version from scratch.

        Hi,

         

        I downloaded stand-alone TestComplete installer, performed in-place update and can confirm that the 'Rerun failed test items' setting appeared in settings for both the current and default projects.
