Hello,
Previously I was able to create a little sript to get the user to input a path at the start of the test, and then grab a EXE version from that path.
My goal was to save the TestComplete Project log with the name of EXE + version at the end of the test.
I realized that I couldn't do it because I was using "normal" variables and they weren't kept in memory.
The help file directed me to project variables. I was able to create one, but I cannot find the structure to get the value of the variable + the user's answer to the prompt.
So previous variable was:
EXEPath = BuiltIn.InputBox("Find EXE path", "Enter EXE Program Files path:", "")
Now I am trying things like:
ProjectSuite.Variables.VariableByName["EXEPath"] =
BuiltIn.InputBox("Find EXE path", "Enter EXE Program Files path:", "")
But the second line shows error "Unexcepted TKN_NewLine"
Solved! Go to Solution.
"ProjectSuite.Variables.VariableByName["EXEPath"] =
BuiltIn.InputBox("Find EXE path", "Enter EXE Program Files path:", "")
But the second line shows error "Unexcepted TKN_NewLine""
Is it intented to go new ligne after the = ?
I don't use PY but according to the error msg i think that you must remove this carriage return and write all on same line :
ProjectSuite.Variables.VariableByName["EXEPath"] = BuiltIn.InputBox("Find EXE path", "Enter EXE Program Files path:", "")
Un sourire et ça repart
Hi,
> The help file directed me to project variables.
> ProjectSuite.Variables.VariableByName["EXEPath"] =
The syntax seems to be correct. But the code uses project suite variable but not project variable. Is this correct?
One general note: Use of InputBox() method requires human interaction. This means that your test code can not be executed unattended (on schedule, within CI pipeline, etc.). Is is OK and expected?
"ProjectSuite.Variables.VariableByName["EXEPath"] =
BuiltIn.InputBox("Find EXE path", "Enter EXE Program Files path:", "")
But the second line shows error "Unexcepted TKN_NewLine""

Hello,
Yes it is expected, this is why my initial post mentioned the "user's input".
It is because my test can be ran on several different folders on the computer.
I ask the user first: Which folder you want to test?
I know how to use a specific folder and I do that for machines with a single installation, but not on my own (or my team's) computer where I have about 30 folders to test.
Merci Benoit.
It is now able to run. I am getting a different error now, but I might be able to figure it out.
Got it.
I followed a different structure to set the variable, as found here:
