MakeAsTCclient-for TC ver 12 do we need to add this?
Hi All,
For MakeAsTCclient configuration, I would like to ask if we have the updated version of Test Complete ver. 12 (12.20.935.7), do we need to add/configure it also under Tested apps>edit>command-line parameters: /MakeAsTCclient ???.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having these settings?
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks in advance.
I assume you are testing a Delphi or C++Builder application? The /MakeAsTCClient argument is no longed used since TestComplete 7.0. The tcOpenApp.pas, tcOpenAppClasses.pas and tcPublicInfo.pas files used in TestComplete 6 are also no longer used, and tested apps need to be recompiled without these files.
Delphi and C++Builder apps are now testable without any special changes, but if you need to test grids or third-party controls (DevExpress, TMS) you need to compile the app with debug information as explained here:
