Copy´n´paste keywordtests?

[ml]

Hey all,

is it possible to create new keywordtests out of existing ones?

I need to make a bunch of new keywordtests and i dont want to create them all by hand, easier would be to copy existing tests and just changing some objects/variables afterwards. How can i archive this? Does anyone know?

Hi @ml 

Within a project this is easy. 

You can click on your specific keyword test. 

Select the line or all the items in your keyword test, to copy> right click copy and then paste into you new test. 

TestComplete supports keyboard shortcuts too (ctrl c + ctrl p)

Hey Vinnie,

i want to copy a large bunch of Keywordtests with its items.

Keywordtest_A -> Keywordtest_A1

Keywordtest_B -> Keywordtest_B1

Keywordtest_C -> Keywordtest_C1

Hey @ml 

Yeah thats doable following my approach. 

rather than selecting just one line you would select all , copy from Keywordtest_A and then paste into  Keywordtest_A1

I found a solution:

- copy the files in windows file explorer 

- mass rename them with Visual Studio Code find & replace for files

- add them into TestComplete via Project Explorer -> Add -> Existing items
