Using AI to write scripts
Has anybody tried using AI to help write their scripts for TestComplete? I have been researching CoPilot Github and Claude Code as AI tools to assist with coding. Both have integrations that work wi...

Champion Level 3One thing to consider is how TestComplete scripts are typically structured. In many projects, a large portion of the script (often 70–80%) is made up of interactions with NameMapped objects — clicking controls, setting values, checking states, etc. That type of code is very tool-specific and already fairly declarative.
Because of that, using an external IDE with AI assistance can feel like overkill for pure UI interaction, especially when you have to switch back and forth between IDEs and still rely on TestComplete to run and debug the scripts.
Where AI tools may add more value is outside of direct UI actions — for example:
- Helper or utility functions
- Data-driven logic
- String/file handling
- Simplifying or explaining more complex control flow
In those cases, selectively using AI to assist with small, focused pieces of logic may be more practical than trying to author entire TestComplete scripts in an external IDE.
