Getting error "NameError: name 'TestedApps' is not defined"

[Mohit_Dadhich]

I am trying to launch my desktop application via TestedApps.Appname.Run() using UnitTesting(PyUnit)

But it is giving me error as "NameError: name 'TestedApps' is not defined"

Additonally, TestedApps.Appname.Run() is working fine if i am not using UnitTesting. It is working fine for simple Keyword Test and Script Test using Python language but when i executes it using Unit Testing(PyUnit) then it shows me the above error and application is not getting launched.

because the concept and the entity TestedApps is a TestComplete specific thing, so you cannot call on it from an external source like a UnitTest (pyunit)

--

there is no such thing as a module TestedApps that you can pip install and use

so how can i launch my application using PyUnit

[hkim5]

you would add code to do that? something like

Yes it's working fine thanks, now i am able to launch my application through subprocess.call()

Also Am i be able to work on my application through the scripts i have created using TestComplete script tests in PyUnit module?

For ex - Need to login into the application and verify the logged in user. For this i have created a keyword test using python. But i want to execute it via PyUnit so is it possible?

[hkim5]

no thats not possible

kdt can only be ran via testcomplete or testexecute

Ok Thanks for the information..

Am i be able to work on my application through the Scripts Test i have created using TestComplete script tests in python language and i want to run it through PyUnit?

Scripts is created for logging into the application and verification. Does PyUnit support the objects and methods of TestComplete?
