Adding new action to existing keyword test locks up IE

Hi Matt,



I failed to reproduce a similar problem on my Windows 7 machine equipped with TestComplete 8.70.727 and Internet Explorer 9. So, I'll need more details about the issue to try to determine its cause:



1. Describe your environment - I need to know the exact versions of Windows, TestComplete and Internet Explorer.



2. Do you have the LCIE feature disabled as it is described in the "Disabling Loosely Coupled Internet Explorer" section of the "Preparing Web Browser" help topic? If you don't, try disabling it.



3. Can you reproduce the problem using a public site, e.g. http://google.com?

1. I am running Win7 X64, using IE8 with the latest version of TestComplete (8.70.727.7)

2. I do NOT have LCIE disabled

3. I was not able to reproduce this on my other sites.



What i ended up doing was removing the HTTP Load testing plugin from the project and it has seemed to clear up. Im not sure why this would have had any type of effect on the keyword tests but it seemed to have worked.



I do have this very same issue with the load testing plugin. I can try to record a load test in IE and it completely locks up the browser as soon as the recording begins. If i try the same steps in FireFox then it works as it should, no problems. The only difference that i can think of is that my application when run in IE uses ActiveX controls and in chrome and FireFox it doesnt use the ActiveX

Hi Matt,

I can try to record a load test in IE and it completely locks up the browser as soon as the recording begins.

As the development of the HTTP load testing functionality is frozen, you can check whether the problem persists in LoadComplete (a SmartBear tool tailored for HTTP load testing).
