We could also argue that two seconds is not a long time.

I don't think that's arguable.. 2 seconds to find a view that is already there and only within 2-3 levels of children is insane. Especially when TC is able to find any other view within 50-60ms...

    It's a good thing that I'm not testing TestComplete then!  Two seconds out of my 70 minute test suite isn't worth pursuing.

      Sure 2 seconds out of 70 minutes is nothing, but in my case, those 2 seconds (I have to interact about 45 times with a MessageBox) represent 90 seconds in a 15 minutes test, which is 10% of the time.

       

      That's why I need to know why this is happening and I was hoping for an answer from TestComplete but seems like I'll have to open a support ticket..
