Importing 'TestComplete' library to my Python based framework

[santi]

Hi Folks,

Need a urgent help here.

I wanted to call 'TestComplete' library to my 'Python based Framework'.

I am aware about COM based support https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/working-with/automating/via-com/about.html

But, can we do same for python.

Would be glad if someone worked on similar scenarios share their thoughts.

Thanks,

Santosh

Hi Santosh,

Could you clarify your problem, please?

Basically, TestComplete can be controlled from the command line, user interface or through the COM.

Hi Alex,

I dont want to use TestExecute.exe to run, i simply wanted to run a TestComplete script, without using TestComplete/TestExecute. Can i do that, if yes, could you please provide a pointer.

Thanks,

Santi

Generally speaking.... you can't.  TestComplete automation depends upon the TestComplete engines.  You can set up your Python Framework, but somewhere in there it will need to make a call out to TestComplete to execute the test, either triggering a commandline of TestExecute or TestComplete.
