Hi, I'm relatively new and I havn't been able to find useful documentation on this, but when I run the automated test, TestComplete selects the wrong list item.  ...

    Create a new script routine, with "object spy" see the properties of the object you want to click, after that just adapt the code I'm giving below to your needs:




    //function you can call everywhere


    function clickContentTextVisibleOnScreen(text)


    {


    Aliases.browser.pageIsServicePortal.Find(new Array("contentText", "visibleOnScreen"), new Array(text, "True"), 500, true).Click();


    }


     


    //put you mouse cursor here and click the green "play" button on top of the editor


    function main()


    {


    clickContentTextVisibleOnScreen("I want to order a cellphone");


    }

You're starting now? Good, keep it up, always think about the future changes you might need to do in your code, create a set of helper functions you can use regardless of the page or browser you're using.



Here are some examples, the comments you see are parsed using yuidoc, it is important to keep a good documentation over your code so anyone can understand and you don't keep repeating yourself.



I have more functions but most of the code is in portuguese and now I don't have the time to translate it (yes, i know , i should always code in english... :( ). Beware I just made this gist, not responsible for errors :D.



Hope I can be of help :)
