Azure DevOps seems to be a popular option these days. Please consider adding the following as a feature in the near future.   1. Post Bugs from Test complete to Azure DevOps 2. Post Work Item from TestComplete to Azure DevOps 3. Upload Test Plan from TestComplete to ADO.  ... 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

I am writing and changing my scripts in my favorite (external) editor. But when I want to use the script in the TestComplete UI, I always get the same pop up as attached. And always I have to confirm. I understand that TestComplete does this, but can we have the option circled as attached? ... View more

I keep seeing functionality deprecated and hidden.   My company pays\renews because of what TestComplete provides per our automation needs.   Please do some serious polling among your clients and not the norm on the internet before affecting TestComplete functionality.     ... View more

In some cases it is useful / necessary to run a batch script from Testcomplete. Unfortunately Testcomplete can't get back the status code from the batch file to get the information if the script was executed successful or not. In many cases it would be useful to get back the status code at the keyword level of Testcomplete, for example: - execute a program to do some taks as pre condition for the following teststeps - execute some testcases with a batch file that can't be executed by Testcomplete directly, like python testcases with the pytest framework   ...

It would be nice if you can copy the complete name mapping path from the namemapping from the Mapping Abjects or Aliases screens   I am investigating NameMapping, I have one screen open with the name mapping and one screen with my script   You have Mapped objects and you can easily create an Alias by dragging.   It would be nice if you can right-click the desired map (in Maps or Aliases) and copy the path for pasting into your script this could even be drag and drop into your script      i.e. NameMapping.Sys.notepad.dlgSaveAs.DUIViewWndClassName.Explorer_Pane.CtrlNotifySink.ShellView.Items_View.test_complete_test_notepad_save_txt.Name   being able to copy this complete String WITHOUT having to highlight it all - will make the system a little more intuitive   ...

The following capabilities are missing in scripting for TestComplete: 1. Changing of namemapping should also update any references inside scripts not just KeywordTests         - What I do now is use an external text editor to look for references to Aliases.browser.pageX and change it to                     Aliaes.browser.pageY 2. Changing the name of a method/sub/function in a script or the script name should update all references used in KeywordTests         - Right now if you change a function's name the references done by Keyword tests still use the old name thus                       causing exceptions during runtime   ...

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(); }   ...

One of the beauties of Script Extension Runtime Objects is that you can create code that is shared across ALL projects without having to include the code units in the projects themselves.  I am involved in the process of creating a detailed test automation framework where a good bit of the framework code is encapsulated in script extension runtime objects.   However, one of the drawbacks I've run into is that, if the framework needs to execute a Keyword test instead of simply a Script routine, the code cannot reside in the extension. Currently, Script Extensions do not support the KeywordTests object and all the methods and objects underneath.   It would be nice to be able to execute KeywordTests within script extensions so I'm formally requesting the ability to do so. ...

Hi, when we use the following command line: "C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestExecute 15\x64\Bin\TestExecute.exe" "C:\Users\USridhar\Documents\TestComplete 15 Projects\ProjectSuite3\ProjectSuite3.pjs" /run /p:TestProject1 /exportLog:"E:\Testing\Test6.html" /e We are receiving multiple .html files, but we need only a single HTML file named Test6.html. We prefer not to use .mht files as they are not compatible with Chrome and Firefox. ... View more

Hello everyone, I have scripts that contain many classes that are based on the same base class. So I often have the same method in my script for each class and, not having a view of my current position, I get lost. I'd like to see which class I'm in in real time. The two components that could meet this need are the Code Explorer panel and the Code Selector. If either of them could have an option to be enabled or disabled to be refreshed in real time relative to the current cursor position, that would be ideal. ... View more

Devex stops supporting VCL treelist, and they recommend using TreeView control. It would be really good to support these recommended controls, because it's really time killing scripting desktop apps without it. ... View more

Issue: Having the native ability to encrypt, decrypt and encode in multiple different formats is becoming more and more crucial to working on modern devops platforms. Often times we need to be able to handle encrypted data, be able to decrypt it when necessary, and communicate back encrypted information. Especially with AWS.  Requested Solution: Provide native support to encryption, decryption, and encoding similar to Crypto-JS. ... View more

Hi team,   in the current world, the programmers are using Stack overflow to find code snippets for simple problems, and git hub has a feature called Copilot, which we can use to suggest the code sample which works like a suggestion dropdown when we use some testcomplete methods,   it would be great if we create any kind of plugin or some functionality which can do the above mechanism to make our work easier.   Thanks and Regards, Sathish Kumar K ...
