test complete unable to recognize properties of a new tab

[testcmpleteuser]

Hi,

I have a scenario in  my testing where clicking on a button opens up a new tab in the existing browser. While rcording the actions on the new tab, it automatically maps the objects of the new tab to that of the existing tab. So, running the test fails. 

I updated the object mapping for Tab Control to include the WndClass(Chrome_WidgetWin_1) as shown in the object browser, but that didnt help either. When I tried mapping the object(new tab) mannually, it just highlight the objects of the first tab. Although the window captions of both the tabs are different( one has window caption as MACHOPLIST-Google Chrome and another has MainMenu-Google Chrome

here is what test complete does when I try to view object properties of the second tab; I have to click OK object on the second tab but test comlplete automatically clicks on the first tab.The highlihted object in the figure is that of the first tab.

Hi,

Can you check if a patch for your Chrome version is installed in TestComplete? You can find it here:

If this doesn’t help, please contact our Support Team to investigate this: http://support.smartbear.com/product-list/

I believe this was fixed in TC Version 10.60.

Hi Tanya,

Thanks.

The test complete version I have is 10.50 and chrome version is 41. But I didnt see anything for Chrome v.41 in the link attached. I can try downgrading the existing chrome version to that of 40 but I am concerned about the existing tests that I created in 41 - they might not work. Please suggest.

Hi,

Downgrading Chrome isn’t a simple task. It’s already discussed many times here. You can search for the discussions. I would recommend that you update to TestComplete 10.6. Only the latest product versions support newest browsers.

Hi Tanya, 

Updating to 10.60 resolved the issue for identifying new tab objects but the issue now is that the checkboxes are not recongnized now. It just takes the whole label in account and cant get down to the checkbox level. Is there a set up that is missing here? I have the Chrome extension installed.

Hi,

I can catch checkboxes on my test page. Could you please post here the value of the outerHTML property of the highlighted object you show in the image?

[testcmpleteuser]

Hi,

outerHTML has the value as:

<label for="Ad Hoc CustomerID" class="checkLabel">Ad Hoc Customer</label>
