    In JavaScript this works:

     

    function defaultParams(parm1 = 'test', param2 = 3){
    Log.Message(parm1)
    Log.Message(param2)
}

     

    So, this tells me that the problem is not in TestComplete necessarily.  The code you posted is in Python.  I'm not 100% certain what the proper answer is for Python script.  But I do know that, at least default "basic" data types work.  An enumerated data like a key/value pair... I don't think that will work.

     

    If you WANT to go that route...instead of a script routine, create a Keyword Operation Script Extension with a custom User Form to prompt for parameters where you can set up the pre-defined values and drop downs.  See https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/working-with/extending/script/creating/keyword-test-operations/index.html
