TestComplete Books

This is just a bit of info on one the books refered to in another post...

 

I have looked at The TestComplete Cookbook and it is structured well for learning and reference. It is written for version 9 and above.  The book uses Jscript for the examples (correct me if I am wrong).  Each section consists of 3 parts sometimes 4...

 

  1. Getting Ready
  2. How to do it...
  3. How it works...
  4. There's more...

If you want any other specifics about the book let me know.  I hope this helps out someone.

 

Have a great day all!

      Hi guys :)

       

      Unfortunately, I am not following TestComplete forums last years as my working focus has changed a little.

      But thanks to TanyaYatskovska I still receive some notifications and can answer your questions if you have them.

       

      TanyaYatskovska, thanks for not forgetting me :)

    I see the book claims to be useful for both novices and experts.

     

    Would you say that is accurate?

     

    Is more of a novice tutorial book or more of advanced approaches to testing with TestComplete or is it a good balance of both?

     

    How basic is its novice stuff and just how advanced is its most advanced stuff?

      I am a novice with TC.  It starts pretty basic.  I am not familiar with the scripting language used.  I am more familier with vbscript so I am trying to learn that and possibly re-create the scripts I see in vbscript.  Check the link below and click the "Read More" link near the bottom of the page ...
