TestComplete 15.77 is broken - dont upgrade
Previous version - 15.76
upgraded to - 15.77
TC 15.77 Included upgrading python version to 3.13.
This has led to the following issues -
1. Cant run any test - all files that you have written, for example - homepage.py when referenced at the import line will provide the python runtime error 'Module not found'.
2. Cant add new files - right click on script, add new item - > leads to nothing (no new window), testcomplete freezes.
Its understandable when upgrading python versions users are expected to ensure they upgrade/install their 3rd part dependencies. But unable to recognize your own files within your project is clearly just wrong.
The point of this post is to ensure that people are aware of this and should avoid upgrading their python projects.
In classic smartbear fashion there will be no information addressing this - or updates to documentation. The error message that Testcomplete provides you takes you to the page that helps installs 3rd party dependencies - which is completely incorrect and outdated.
Despite them claiming that their documentation is up to date in accordance with the new release 15.77.
As you can see they are literally referencing python11 in this command when claiming the below works for their latest version that ships with python 3.13.
