Testcomplete,how does it works

Hi Ofer,

It depends on the application you're testing. Usually, TestComplete tries to name objects within the application according to the object hierarchy in that application. That's why TestComplete requires access to debug information for the application as it stores all needed panel, form, control and other names.

For such applications (applications that are recognized by TestComplete as Open), TestComplete creates names using the WinFormsObject and other methods.

For black-box and native-windows applications, TestComplete uses class names within object names and these names typically start with the Windows object.

For more information on how TestComplete assigns names to tested applications and controls, please refer to the Naming Objects section in the online help.
