Re: Name Mapping not working on remote browser
Hi Alex, While I accept your answer regarding post answering, I am mainly interested in running my tests in headless mode (I don't really care about "name mapping"). The reason this post caught my attention was that it included a code snippet that I unsuccessfully tried to use, whereas it should according to TestComplete documentation. I was hoping that the original post placed by "testfeast" would attract some comments regarding the code correctness. This was a wrong choice of the post on my part. I since posted a question regarding this code elsewhere. Also, I created a ticket for the code not working because it poses a serious problem for my test team and needs to be resolved.Re: Setting browser options programmatical
Thanks, but you reply is not sufficient. 1. You might want to consider updating you documentation with that info as it is not immediately obvious that specifying Chrome options requires just one hyphen (“-“) instead of “—”, which is a standard (see https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/ )that you follow in you documentation on page https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/general/preparing-browsers/chrome.htmld in paragraph “Command-line arguments”. 2. You did NOT address the headless mode of browser operation, which happens to be far more important to my organization. This line of code: Browsers.Item(btChrome).RunOptions = '-incognito'; does not alter the behavior of the browser, which still shows full UI after starting. I have tried (rightly or wrongly) an alternative approach based on you documentation (https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/supported-browsers/headless.html ). Here, again, is my code: var url = "https://msdn.microsoft.com/"; var capabilities = { "browserName": "chrome", "goog:chromeOptions": { "args": [ "-headless", "-incognito" ] } }; Browsers.RemoteItem(“localhost”, capabilities).Run(url); When executed it terminates with this error: even though the latest version of chromedriver is present in “C:\ProgramData\SmartBear\WebDrivers\chrome” folder (as per your documentation – “<ProgramData>\SmartBear\WebDrivers\<browser> “). Can you please either tell me what am I doing wrong when specifying “headless” mode as a simple run option, or explain what is wrong with my code related to the Browser.RemoteItem command.
