Referrence Changing from winforms object to window object

Hi,



First of all, update TC to at least version 7.52. If the current behavior persists, try increasing the method invoke timeout value in your project (see the Project Properties - General Open Applications Options help topic). Does this help?

Hi,

     

     While running the project through TestExecute  i am facing the same issue(winformsobject("")  reference is changed into window("") object) . Please help me to overcome this.

Hi,



OK, what exact steps did you perform to solve this problem? What is the current method invoke timeout value? How do you launch your application and what permissions does TC have (try running it as Administrator)?

Hi,



 I am using TC Version 7.10.475.7 and TestExecute 7.50.653.11 .

 I have changed the "method invoke timeout" value to 10000.

 In my test case I just need to detect the Excel child for which I could see the reference while programming  is as below     "Sys.Process("EXCEL").WinFormsObject("SplashScreen_CDM").WinFormsObject("MainLayoutPanel").WinFormsObject("Panel1").WinFormsObject("UiButton1""



But when tried to run  the same code using testexecute the reference of same window is as given below

Sys.Process("EXCEL").Window("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.bf7771", "", 2).Window("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.bf7771", "", 1).Window("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.bf7771", "", 2).Window("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.bf7771", "", 1).



This is not only for excel !!. i just gave one example

Because of this reason i could not run my project. Please help me.

Hi,



First of all, update both TC and TE to version 7.52. After that, apply this fix:

TestComplete Ent: http://downloads.automatedqa.com/net_patch/NET_TestComplete_Enterprise.zip TestComplete Std: http://downloads.automatedqa.com/net_patch/NET_TestComplete_Standard.zip TestExecute: http://downloads.automatedqa.com/net_patch/NET_TestExecute.zip TestRecorder: http://downloads.automatedqa.com/net_patch/NET_TestRecorder.zip Here are the hot fix installation steps: 1. Unpack the downloaded archive to your hard disk drive. The archive contains two folders: 'x86' and 'x64'. 2. Close the product you are applying the fix to. 3. Copy the 'x86\tcClrHook.dll" file to the Extensions folder of the product. For TestComplete and TestExecute, the folder path looks like this: <Product Installation Folder>\Bin\Extensions\ For TestRecorder, the path is as follows: <Product Installation Folder>\Bin\ 4. If you are running an x64 operating system, you will also need to copy the 'x64\tcClrHook.dll' file to the following folder: TestComplete, TestExecute: <Product Installation Folder>\x64\Bin\Extensions\ TestRecorder: <Product Installation Folder>\x64\Bin\

Your problem can be related to MS .NET updates.

Hi,

     I just upgraded the Test Execute  from 7.10 to 7.5, now  I am not facing any Issues related to reference.



Thanks to you all,
