Re: Distributed testing: Cannot load the remote project. Failed to invoke an object. Reason: timeout ex
I'm assuming that you have found a solution to your problem by now, but this was exactly the same sort of problem I have been experiencing but couldn't find the answer to resolve it, until I found the hidden field "Host Timeout" in the tests on the Master system. I increased the timeout from 3 minutes to 5 minutes and the tests ran & Test Execute shut down properly!! Thought I would post the solution that worked for me incase it helps others!! :)1.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: editing Events in a project no longer works
Hi resolved this issue by doing a repair installation... - the Events were listed in the project explorer as it should so hadn't deleted anything.. - tried forcing it to regenerate the .tcCfgExtender file. but this didn't help either. even when creating a new Project could not edit the events so figured something had got corrupt big time so last resort was Reinstall.. Thanks for your help anyway.. repair did the trick so happy bunny again! :) cheers K969Views2likes0Commentsediting Events in a project no longer works
My Project has the Events object & GeneralEvents listed within the project viewer but I cannot edit them ...I normally double click the events so I can use OnStopTest etc but for some reason this one project wont let me edit the events. In the rtClick menu Edit is disabled. I have removed Events & re-added it, checked all options & properties but with no success.. Please if anyone has any ideas why this simple task is no longer working please let me know.. I'm sure it will be something obvious.. I just don't knwo what! many thanks in advance Kay2.8KViews0likes4CommentsQTObjects showing "No such interface supported" in Namemapping
Help, What used to work is no longer working & I have no idea why... Trying to automate a 3rdParty application that uses QTObjects using Test complete 9.1 the name mapping used to work but now its not recognising anything at run time.. using the object spy most properties are now showing as Error: No such interface supported" I've checked the Install extentions & QTObjects & Open Applications are ticked.. any ideas??

Hi, We have created lots of different projects testing differents modules & areas of our Tested App. Initially we had them all in one big Project suite but this was getting too big and we are starting to see unspecified errors & Test Complete Out of memory issues so we have made the choice to separate out into multiple project suites... We now have different Projectsuites that include only the projects that are required for that particular test...which we thought made more sense.. However, some projects are required in multiple project suites but now the same project may have slightly different test items enabled in each project suite... is this possible? or am I right in thinking the status of the Testitems for a project is stored in the project file, ie. if I set all the testitems to be on in projectA in ProjectSuiteA but in some are set to off in Project A in ProjectSuiteB it will depend on which Projectsuite, was saved last as to the status of ProjectA test items.. Do I need to save ProjectA as two separate projects because it has two separate configurations of testitems ??? any help on this would be very helpful kindest regards Kay15KViews0likes1CommentRe: Namemapping for Multilingual testing
Thankyou for the suggestion, Is this really the only way as I say we are looking at trying to automate the tests for multiple Languages: (French, Italian, Spanish, German, Russian, Japanese, Chinese.. plus no doubt more in the future..) Are you saying I need to create a new mapping file for each language and then at the start of each test run select the appropriate name mapping configuration to use...? this is all well and good but surely maintaining the 8+ name mapping configuration files as the application develops/ tests develop is a logistical nightmare??!! Its bad enough keeping the English file uptodate let alone 7 others... is there not another way? how do other people do it? regards Kay3.4KViews1like0CommentsRunning different tests on Multiple Machines
Hi, I was wondering how do people go about running different Tests (at the same time, e.g Overnight) on multiple machines? for example we have: System 1 running TestA System 2 running TestB System 3 running TestC We would like to increase the number of systems running different tests but don't really want to have full systems if we don't need to.. (Mouse, Keyboard, Monitor takes up too much space! : ) & our test can take a few hours to run! how do people do this...? kindest regards Kay13KViews0likes2CommentsNamemapping for Multilingual testing
Hi, We would like to use our test scripts to test our application in different languages... but the problem we are facing is that objects are not being recognised in the name mapping file...when using a different Language How do you map something to uniquely identify the control when it seems the only thing that is unique is the caption..??? the Control ID changes with each run.. the Name = WinFormObject("LMSButton", "Yes") (- which includes the caption...had hoped this was just default caption but it seems not ) I was hoping that someone might have some idea on how to tackle this issue... also to add to the fun... we want to be able to test in about 8 Languages including Russian, Chinese, Japanese... kindest regards Kay We are using TC. 7.51, Vista/Windows 724KViews0likes13CommentsRe: Unspecified Error
Hi, we are experiencing "Unspecified Error" messages too & then Test Complete dies, we dont lose any files or anything like that, but it's interesting that you say you have experienced similar when your using DDT... we are using DDT to access Excel workbooks and although we do close the connection perhaps there is something going wrong? and they are not actually being closed... Is there a way of checking if there is a connection already opened before trying to open a new one? or a way of ensuring that they are closed?? kindest regards K P.S> should say we are using 7.51 and prior to that have had no issues2.9KViews0likes0Commentshow to compare a string in a resource.dll
Hi, what I'd like to be able to do is compare a string for a control with its associated string in the resource.dll file I'm using VB script in TestComplete our Tested Application is written in C# and we have lots of resource files for the different languages our application runs under. I'd like to check that a particular string is correctly being translated and that the translation is in the relevant resource file If anybody has any clue on how to do this it would be very much appreciated!! many thanks in advance regards K13KViews0likes1Comment
