Upgrade to v9.2 broke context menu recording

Hello, I thought I'd try the forum rather than submitting a ticket to the support group.



I upgraded to TC 9.2 on my main WinXP workstation. I still have v9.1 installed in a Win8Pro VM in VMWare Workstation v9.



I've just discovered that context menu actions are not recorded properly in v9.2 when selecting menu items that behave like radio buttons.



The context menu is shown in the attached file PopUp-3.png, and I'm refering to the top items "WELL, MODERATE, POOR".



The attached file PopUp-1.png shows the recorded steps first from TC v9.2 and then v9.1. The recordings where made into the same Keyword Test in the same Project. I did this by running one at a time. When starting TC9.1 in the Win8 VM, it complains about the format of the NameMapping file becuase it has been updated to the v9.2 format. I just continued anyway and was able to verify that the recording worked correctly in v9.1.



v9.1 recorded the index of the selected menu item [0 to N). v9.2 records "?J?B". If I manually edit the line in the test, changing "?J?B" to "[2]", then it plays back correctly.



Is this a known problem?

  • Hi Rick,


     


    I know that you have already upgraded to TC 9.30. Does the problem persist in this version?


     

  • Yes, the problem still persists in v9.30.



    Note that I submitted this problem as:



     [Issue# M0113186] Web Submission - Upgrade to v9.2 broke context menu recording



  • The Support tem asked for a sample program to demonstrate this problem, but then I discovered that some of our programs fail but others don't. The developer is in the middle of upgrading the development environment (compilers, third-party component versions, etc), so we decided to wait to see if the problem persists with the new development tools.
  • I tried the patch but it makes no difference for me. I have notified Support (Issue# M0114289).
