I need to test an application which is fully controlled.
Now during test execution I start video recording, to record the actions on screen.
I need TestComplete to display the simulated keystrokes so that keystrokes can be matched to the application's behaviour.
Is TestComplete able to display simulated keystrokes in a popup window on screen, during test execution?
If so, how to do?
I'm not sure I understand the question. TestComplete, when using the "Keys" method, you will see on screen the keystrokes being entered in. So, I'm not sure what pop-up window would need to be displayed?
Probably you can do it using Indicator Icon: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/running/indicator.html
And implement some method like:
def send_keys_indicator(keys):
for key in keys:
Indicator.PushText(key)
Aliases.yourInputControl.Keys(key)
Indicator.Pop()
And invoke it when required. You will see all inputs near the TestComplete icon. May be you will need to set a Key pressing delay (in Project Settings) to some significant value to make it visible on the screen.
