Hi,

 

You might consider to consult with developers to check the following idea:

-- It is possible that sub-menu and its items are created dynamically and only after the corresponding parent menu item is clicked or hovered to expand;

-- If the above is the case, you may consider not to click menu by its full path using default TestComplete's functionality, but implement it manually;

-- In your manual implementation, for every but final menu item, test code must: a) hover mouse over the menu item; b) click the hovered menu item or just wait until the sub-menu appears (this may depend on the implementation); c) search for the next menu item in the sub-menu window. The last menu item should be just clicked.

 

Hope, this might help.

Hi Alex,

 

Thanks for reply, I will definetely try what you said.

I had to avoid choosing menues cause I needed to find solution FAST - I used navigation pane items instead, which is implemented in the application I test. But I will turn back to menues at some point later.

 

Thanks,

Sergey
