ODT - Alternatives & Javascript Capabilities ?

[Vallalarasu_P]

Hi All,

ODT (https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/deprecated/odt/index.html) is going to be a depecated feature. So that an alternative is shared 

https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/deprecated/odt/index.html#alternatives

/ Define a custom class
function customClass() 
{

  // Define a class property
  var classProperty;
}

// Define a class routine
customClass.prototype.classRoutine = function()
{
  // ...
}

function Test() 
{
  var obj;
  
  // Create an instance of the class
  obj = new customClass();
  
  // Set the class property
  obj.classProperty = 41;
  
  // Call the class routine
  obj.classRoutine();
}

This alternative works for JavaScript too?!!

I never used ODT feature. But the alternative given here is what I have used to emulate the Page Object Model pattern in both JScript and JavaScript (using the protoype option). Its working absolutely fine as we expect.

I don't understand your question.  You've written JavaScript code... so it would work with JavaScript.  Can you clarify what you want to know?

I think they are using ODT (Object-Driven Testing) project item. Since its depricated, as per smartbear suggestion - the alternative solution for ODT is the above implementation given in this link.

I reckon they would like to know whether someone implemented it successfully.
