TestComplete Feature Requests

When executing test cases in Test Complete or Test Execute via the command line, you can specify which folder to write the test results to but CAN NOT specificy Zephyr Folder. Please add support for Test Complete/Test Execute to write results to Zephyr Folders via command line (or other executions)  ... View more

Hello, when using the "Set variable value" action, a new window opens up to select the variable. There I can expand e.g. the project. Could you please order the variables by name? At the moment they aren't ordered at all, and it is really hard to find something, as you cannot just enter the name but have to find and select it. See attached screenshot. Thank you Daniel ...

Hi All,   I would like to have a feature in SmartBear TestComplete, where we can run only the failed test items in the project suite. Explaining in detail: Assume I have a project suite with 3 projects with that suite, and each project has around 100 test items to be executed. So in total 300 test items are to be executed, when execution triggered for project suite. After the first round of execution, assume in each projects 10 test items failed randomly. Currently, what we have to do is, we need to select those failed test items manually and trigger execution again on the whole project suite. [This we have to do, when tests are failed due to some environment issues and so] It would be good, if we have an option of running only the failed test items from the last run.   Thanks, Karthik K R ...

For Cucumber steps, TestComplete doesn't generate step definition with Keyword And. It only generates steps with Given, When, & Then Keywords. This causes code duplicity. Module 1: Scenario: Check and Open app Given I have app installed on my machine And I install DB on SQL Server for "IM" And I should open app with "IM" database as "default" user Module2: Scenario: Prerequisite for app Given I have app installed on my machine And I install DB on SQL Server for "CF" Then I install Application Server on my machine "CF" with "WorkflowFeature" And I should open app with "CF" database as "default" user In the above 2 steps are the same And I should open app with "IM" database as "default" user And I should open app with "CF" database as "default" user and should have only one step definition. But TestComplete generates 2 steps definitions, one with Given And other with Then. Cucumber, in general, doesn't take keywords in consideration while doing the step matching but in TestComplete it does. This is causing the problem and creating a lot of duplicate code.   We are looking for solution where TestComplete uses Cucumbers basic feature and do not consider Keywords while doing step matching and generates step definitions with all the keywords.We are looking for solution where TestComplete uses Cucumbers basic feature and do not consider Keywords while doing step matching and generates step definitions with all the keywords. ...

I am familiar with python,and do NOT want to learn testcomplete built-in function/method.However, I find that I can NOT invoke python native function/method by code completion in code editor.I just want it works like pycharm. For example,Step1:I define a list with python script. lst = [1,2,3,4] Step2:I input "lst." in code editor,if i am using "pycharm",it will pop up the below screenshot and it will show the native function，but NOT in testcomplete code editor ...

Currently, once the tests are executed in TestComplete, we can export the results and the summary into MHT format but not in Excel. Getting the results in Excel is a basic need in most projects where you have to report the results based on the number of tests run including the Passed and the Failed tests.   If not Excel, at least a CSV format should be good to start with. ...

In our trial and error approach to learning TC we have found ourselves with excess baggage (unused mapped objects and Aliases) which we wish to clean up. At some point we disabled 'Map object names automatically' and have a mix of tests using Mapped and Aliased object.   The ability to removed mapped objects and aliases which are used in keyword and script tests would be highly benificial.   Here isa thread which discusses in further detail.   Thanks for your consideration. ...

Hi,   When a Name Mapping item name is changed, it would be great to have all related NameMapping, Aliases updated accordingly through out the code.   For example: A Name Mapping Aliases.MainWindows.NavigationWindow.OkButton is renamed to Aliases.MainWindows.NavigationPanel.OkButton would update all references of the old Aliases path to the new one.   Thanks Simoin Glet ...

Testcomplete should export code completion information for use in other code text editors, such as Sublime Text 3 or Visual Studio Code. This would allow testers to write more scripts while other testers on the same team use TestComplete for its primary function: building and maintaining keyword tests and checkpoints.   Currently, tying up a very expensive instance of TestComplete does not make sense when editing code is not in the top 5 use cases of the tool itself. Additionally, SmartBear would benefit immensely from the efforts of other popular free text editors. ... View more

When I add a keyword to a keyord test,  default description is added. For instance, if I add a script routine to a keyword test, a description "runs a script routine" is added.  I would like to be able to TURN OFF the addition of default descriptions so that a person creating a test either adds a meaningful description or it is left blank.    Thanks ...

I would love a way to go back to the old versions of TestComplete where that object recognition hint stuff wasn't present.   I have never seen this be helpful; it's only caused problems for us when running tests. The objects are either gone because a window closed and TestComplete doesn't recognize that or TestComplete tries to find a control and takes 3-15 minutes to finish the hint and click the button.   I want a way to shut this feature off completely. ...

I have a ProjectSuite with multiple projects in which keyword-test-routines of one project are referenced in multiple other projects. If an original keyword-routine is renamed, there is no other way but to remove and then readd the references after which all usages of these references in actual tests have to be found and replaced with the renamed references as well - needless to say, that this is always a quite hideous task.   It would be very helpful if renaming a keyword/script would also rename all references and all places where they are used. ...

I have groups in my test items section of a project. A user interface which seems consistent with what I am accustomed to seems to be selecting the group, selects the items. This does not occur when selecting a group in this area. Video provided. This would be nice. Thanks for listening! ... View more

When trawling through long logs to find out what lead to an error I often cannot replicate the fault, despite logging every step. Sometimes a screen grab is not enough because an error dialog masks the form content that produced it.   What would be useful is a screen recorder that runs throughout the test. This would normally generate a huge file, so like a dash cam black box in a car crash, it would be useful if TestComplete could store x seconds leading up to the warning/error as well as y seconds after the event to show how the robots attempt to recover from the fault was met by the software under test. ...

Personally, I hate the new feature in 12.30 "Smarter auto-formatting. When you type a bracket or a quotation mark, the Editor now automatically inserts the corresponding closing bracket or quotation mark."   Please see community post for more details: https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-General-Discussions/TestComplete-editor-turn-off-insert-pair-aka-automatically-close/m-p/141131   I would love to have an option to shut this off. ...
