Hi,
> So I am starting TestComplete. I feel TestExecute is internally opening TestComplete.
It looks like we are talking about different things...
If you start TestComplete, it is opened on your desktop and you will not be able to start TestExecute while TestComplete is running. Likewise for TestExecute - if you start TestExecute, its icon is displayed in the Windows Tray (with context menu accessible via the right click) and you will not be able to start TestComplete while TestExecute is running.
The informational window that is displayed while test suite is been opened is a regular informational window displayed by both TestComplete and TestExecute and is not an indication that one of them spawns another. Use Windows Task Manager to check this.
> it can disable few error pops or warning which is important to look at.
No again. As per documentation, /Silent parameter just suppresses prompts from TestComplete/TestExecute and applies default actions. All warnings and error messages from the tested application should be either gracefully processed by test code or logged to the test log. While you may watch how test code executes while creating/debugging test code, it is not a good practice to rely on visual watching and/or visual messages from TestComplete/TestExecute in the production tests runtime.
Hey ,
Thank you you so much for explaining it so well.
I have alternative to do use Keyword test and click yes on confirm dialog.
But if i can access TestExecute object i python or vbscript it would be helpful for me for trying to close it via keyword test.

Could you describe your infrastructure? On what machine(s) you are starting TestComplete/TestExecute, where test suite is located, are you using the same test suite via network share or standalone copies of it, anything alse that might matter.

So I have 1 project suite and within in few project. Within project we have our test cases which we are adding at project level to run
I am running all test cases using command line. Where I create a batch file with test execute command and give location of our test. And we run that batch file. So basically we are using test execute to run the test cases.

Hi,
So, the project suite is located on the network share and is opened concurrently in TestComplete and TestExecute at the same time. Is this correct?

For development project is opened in TC.
But for execution only TE is used
