Hello, is it possible to more than one TestComplete instance on the same computer? thanks.

Hi,
You can run TC in several different Windows sessions simultaneously if you have a server OS. There's no way to launch multiple instances in the same session.

Is this still true?
I would like run more TC (v12 or v14) with different user simultaneously on Windows 2016 Server. Is it possibility?
Thanks!
Hi,
The situation is the same.
Different users cannot work simultaneously within the same Windows session, so no real need to have more than one process of TestComplete.
If you like to implement a scenario when one user does something and another user uses results from the first user, you may consider Network Suite functionality of TestComplete.
I think you misunderstood. 2 different user remote login (are these differnet session) to Windows and start the TC (or TestExecute). Is this possible if our license is sufficient for it?
That's an interesting scenario. I'm not certain. Licensing wise, it MAY depend upon how your machine is licensed. If it's node-locked, probably not because the license will be consumed by a single session. If it's floating, then I imagine that it might consume two licenses because two "seats" are in use.
Technically speaking, I'm not entirely sure it will work anyways. I'm not sure if TestComplete will allow that type of execution. It's not something, as far as I know, that anyone has done before but perhaps TanyaYatskovska can prompt a SmartBear staff member to answer more knowledgeably.
petercsanyi, also pay attention to the fact that the license for TestComplete 12 defers from the license for TestComplete 14. You need to have both of them activated for this scenario.
