or




is there a way for the webservice hosted by IIS to talk to the script in TestComplete6?

Hello Srinivasachary,





TestComplete can't host a web service, it does not implement web server functionality.

However, TestComplete can call methods of web services - see the "Functional Testing of Web Services" help topic:

Thank Alex for your reply.



Yes I have seen the help for Testing Webservices in Test Complete. 



I am trying to create a host for webservice that is able to talk to my script in TestComplete. Since I need to integrate my testcomplete scripts with Windows Workflow (WWF)( Automation Framework I am using) . For that I need to develop a script. Do you have any solutions to this. I appreciate if you can give me any other solutions.





Thank you,

Srinivasachary,

Hello Srinivasachary,





Sorry, we don't have anything like this. I can try to suggest something if you describe your task in detail:

How exactly do you need to integrate the script into your framework?

Do you need to run the scripts from another program?

That is, I need to know what exact functionality/behavior you need from TestComplete's side.

Hello Alex,

Here are my questions.

1. Can TestComplete scripts be compiled into a library (.dll) to be invoked directly in a standard C# application (.exe)?

2. I want to run the TC scripts from C# code. How? 



Please give suggest me is it possible?



Thanks,

Srinivasachary.

Hi Srinivasachary,

No, this is not possible.

Have a look at "Connected Applications", "Creating Connected Applications in C#" and related help topic. (TestComplete/TestExecute must be installed on the machine running the test anyway.)
