TestComplete Feature Requests

I would like to see a native integration between TestComplete projects and GitActions runners. Currently the only option is to create a custom workflow and use self-hosted runners, but this on-prem configuration is a bit archaic as many companies are moving to 100% cloud. ... View more

Please add QT 6 support.    Our company has been using TestComplete for a decade for testing our QT application.  We have been updating QT along the way and now need to to update QT 6 so we need to TestComplete to also update their support.  We have thousands of man hours of work into our scripts at this point and having to switch to a different software would be a painful experience and would take likely years to get us back to where we are now. QT is a major player in Desktop Testing so I don't think they are going away anytime soon. ... View more

Adding a search bar, or maybe ctrl+f searching to the project explorer itself would help in navigating and finding tests and scripts, especially when there are a large number of tests. ... View more

When you rename a variable in the project / project suite / keyword test etc give you the option to amend the name of the variables where they are used in keyword tests just like you do when you rename a NameMapping item. ... View more

The suggestion is to allow a TestComplete user the ability to define "profiles" for settings/options. For a simple example, while I am developing tests, I might want to set error handling to "Stop Project", slow down the playback events or store all logs. But, when TestComplete tests are "in  production" (run nightly from Jenkins, for example), the settings might need to be different; I might want error handling to be "Stop and rerun current item", playback events at their defaults or only keep the 5 most recent logs for example. ...

Hi,    The Find/Replace feature for keyword tests work only  in the Value column, is there a way to search through  NameMapping in Item Coulmn of the  Keyword ?   Regards ... View more

Hi,   The request is to have the 'Execution Plan Editor' to work with Automation tests that has 'tags' on them.   Currently if the "Run @tag" option is selected, the tests will run in no apparent order, ie. the 'Execution Plan Editor' feature does not work along with it.   Hope that the feature request can have some priority, since it would definitely help a lot of Projects that utilize the Automation tests to run on CI/CD Pipeline.   Thank you in advance. ...

I understand that Testcomplete is a scripting language and some use the tool for automation script development with "record & playback", however, it would be much appreciated have the option of developing using a oop design patterns.   Python and JavaScript are powerful languages. By relegating them to a script code style is stripping away their best features. Those that use JavaScript and Python for automation are using them with selenium which does not have a great way to automate desktop applications. By allowing users to choose to develop oop code with the namemapping features, Testcomplete can work as the preferred IDE for automation.  ... View more

I like Testcomplete and all it's features, however, when needing to write code it is a bit of a pain (intellisense, styling, code completion, indenting, etc., all do not work well). Instead of coding in Testcomplete, can we add support in VS Code for development and execution? Still have it tied to the license and no need for namemapping, at least not right away, so we can take advantage of a smoother ide. I currently use python with TestComplete. ... View more

Please provide ability to develop Testcomplete tests using VS Code (dll). No need to include namemapping or object spy feature. Just create an extension for quick test script development and execution using TestExecute. ... View more

Image Comparison Result shows only White background in exported mht   but I see  TestComplete has three comparison modes:     White background   - when selected, TestComplete fills identical pixels with white color.     Light background   - when selected, TestComplete lightens identical pixels     Dark background   - when selected, TestComplete darkens identical pixels It would be more clear if this option available in mht export format as white background difference is not clear and need to look at actual image to see exact difference.  ...

TestComplete has its own HomePage... Contains links to recents Projects etc..   Please ADD a way of allowing each Project Suite to have a Home Page /  'read me' page? We need to have a page that links Exectution Prerequsits, Project Jiras, Confluence pages, Test Info etc..   At the moment I've had to include a Manual Testing Project (Defaulted) and added Test Case with this info...  ...

TestComplete saves a minidump of an executable that crashes on the PC it is running. These programs could crash due to the testing being performed, and the minidumps are very valuable when analyzing the test results. It should be possible to incude the heap to the minidump. Either by default or as a configurable option. ... View more

It would be great to add the PCoIP protocol as a connection possibility to the Network Suite/Distributed Testing. At the moment only connection options with RDP are available.   Benefits of which i could think of: - Support of certain ressource analysis/monitoring tools - More "realistic" setup, as the VM would be connected over a view broker/server (though probably there won't be any large difference in performance for example)   The only way to make this work until now (that I know of) is to open a session with a zero client and set the connection type in the Network Suite to "Manual", but then obviously all VM's need to run from a physical client. ...

It would be very useful to have a feature where the test logs can be automatically generated to PDF files.   Essentially, rather than manually generate a PDF report as an export as instructed in Test Complete documentation: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/log/working-with/exporting/index.html#pdf have the PDF report generate with a simple "writeLogToPDF" command.   Thanks for your consideration!   ...

I thought this should just be a feature already and I posted asking for help to get it to work.   https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-General-Discussions/Log-Folder-Icon-Checkpoint-Over-Message-Javascript/m-p/200736#M37434   The log folders are real nice for cleaning up the logs but they only change Icon's if the Folder contains an Error or a Warning.    I want LogFolders to show a green if it contains a checkpoint.  A common sense order of importance Error > Warning > Checkpoint > Message.   Instead it's showing Error > Warning > Message.   I think it should even auto detect based on the Log item's priority that has been set.   Or just a method to hit  ie,  Log.CurrentStack(iconWarning, priorityHigh);     function TestScriptLog() { Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be an Error"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder","",pmNormal); Log.Checkpoint("Checkpoint in Folder","",pmNormal); Log.Warning("Warning in Folder","",pmNormal); Log.Error("Error in Folder","",pmHighest); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be an Error"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder"); Log.Checkpoint("Checkpoint in Folder"); Log.Warning("Warning in Folder"); Log.Error("Error in Folder"); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be a Warning"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder","",pmNormal); Log.Checkpoint("Checkpoint in Folder","",pmNormal); Log.Warning("Warning in Folder","",pmHighest); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be a Warning"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder"); Log.Checkpoint("Checkpoint in Folder"); Log.Warning("Warning in Folder"); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be a Checkpoint"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder","",pmNormal); Log.Checkpoint("Checkpoint in Folder","",pmHighest); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be a Checkpoint"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder"); Log.Checkpoint("Checkpoint in Folder"); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be an Informational"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder","",pmHighest); Log.PopLogFolder(); Log.AppendFolder("This folder Icon should be an Informational"); Log.Message("Informational in Folder"); Log.PopLogFolder(); }   ...

Hi,   I regularly manage to have enough KWTs, scripts and project tabs open to make the tabs run into a second row.  I find though that at any given time there's only 2 or 3 I use intensively at a time.  For example, I have a test keywordtest for experimenting with new scripts.  Each time I open a script to debug or step through that tab gets pushed out until it ends up on the second row of tabs and I have to search for it again - repeatedly.  What would be awesome is if we could say, decide three tabs are used very intensively at the moment and are important to have them within easy reach, please always keep them leftmost in the tabs.  I know there is right click=>default docking in Workspace, which appens to move it to the top if it's already tabbed, but as soon as I decide some other tab is more important, default docking in Workspace kicks all the tabs all over the show again and I have to redo the docking.  Just a plain "Pin" and it always stays there and "Unpin" and it can go where it wants again would suffice.   Regards,   ...

TestComplete lacks support for testing of Delphi / C++Builder applications that are using the FireMonkey / FireUI cross platform framework. The only options are to use OCR or low-level mode tesing, making UI testing cumbersome.   The FireMonkey framework is actually widely accepted and getting momentum in the Delphi community, and missing support for FireMonkey is quite a pity. ...
