I was able to identify that the problem was in my exe that I was trying to automate, a development error.
Thank you for your help.
What language are you using? If you're using something like JavaScript, you need to make sure that you include the parenthesis when calling a method (object.Clear()).
As for the Object Spy, are you viewing the "Advanced" properties or just the basic? If it's just the basic, the "Fields" tab I don't believe it is exposed.
As for your last question... I don't follow. Can you clarify?
I'm using DelphiScript, using "Advanced" properties.
the other question ignore
The error message for the "Clear" method should contain, on the Additional Information tab indications as to some of the specifics of the problem. Can you share that information? Also, posting a sample of your code where the problem is occurring could be helpful.
As for the "Fields" tab, can you please post screenshots of the machine that is working versus the machine that isn't with regards to Object Spy? One thing you can try is to do an installation repair on the one that isn't working and see if something needs to be corrected in registry.
Ok, follow the code:
//-----------------------------
function WriteObjectValue (AObject: OleVariant; AValor: String = ''; ALIMPartite: Boolean = True): Boolean;
begin
Result: = False;
if (not (AObject.Enabled)) then
begin
Log.Warning ('Accessed object is disabled.');
Exit;
end;
if (ALIMPartite) then
AObjeto.Clear;
AObject.Keys (helper_string.ConvertTextText (AValor));
Result: = True;
end;
//-------------------------
also follows the images with the error and Object Spy.
In your object spy, where does the "Clear" method show up? Can you get a screenshot of the "Methods" listing in object spy?
I'm guessing that there is one of two things happening:
1) There is no "Clear" method present and available to TestComplete and, therefore, it sees your call to the method, not as a method, but simply trying to access an object, hence the error.
2) "Clear" is a native method of the application under test and so may require a different syntax. Try adding () after the call and see if that helps.
