Test Complete not finding objects in salesforce

I am trying to automate tests for Salesforce but I am struggling to identify any objects all I get back is 

 

Sys.Process("chrome").BrowserWindow(0).Client("Google Chrome").Client(1).Client(0).Document(0)

 

essentially the whole web page - even the Object Browser does not identify any lower level objects.

 

has anyone had experience of testing Salesforce CRM?

    First of all, if SalesForce is a web application (which it seems to be), are you licensed for web application testing?

    If you are, you should see, in your object browser, Sys.Browser('chrome').Page(<url>) for the sales force web page.  That is what you're going to want to reference to get to your components, not the browser window.

      And also, what version of TestComplete are you using, and what version of Chrome?

       

      If you are trying to use an older version of TC on the latest version of Chrome, you're going to have problems ....

    Thanks for your help but the problem has been resolved by the fact that the users are going to be using IE so no need to test in Chrome (for now) and IE works perfectly.

    But for info Chrome version 43.02357.81 (version held on our Citrix environments) and TC 12.10.602.7

      For Chrome, make sure that the browser has SmartBear extension installed and enabled.  If it does not, this is probably why Chrome is not working for you. see https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/general/preparing-browsers/chrome.html

       

      Doing some quick looking around, that version of Chrome SHOULD be supported by TC 12... however, it is about 13 versions behind the live version of Chrome (Chrome is at version 56 right now).  Have you tried updating Chrome to the latest and see if the problem still occurs (again, checking for the extension).
