Re: Windows 8.1 Issues
This is actually an easier way to install TestComplete 9.3 on Windows 8.1 x64: 1. Download HASP 6.60 from: http://sentinelcustomer.safenet-inc.com/sentineldownloads/?s=&c=End+User&p=Sentinel+HASP+HL&o=all&t=all 2. Run haspdinst.exe -i 3. Install TestComplete 9.3 4. Done. HASP 6.60 fixes the BSOD during install on Windows 8.1 x64 platforms. TestComplete will have to be patched to include this fix; until then, use instructions above.1.1KViews2likes0Comments- 6.6KViews0likes2Comments
Re: TestComplete stuck
ShubhangiS, Try these : Completely isolate your client network if you have not done that already. Turn off firewall on server network connection to the client network and all client ports On all network interface drivers turn off : Offloading (there are several), Receive Side Scaling, and Flow Control. Access the properties of your network connections : these are the only items which should be checked: Client for Microsoft Networks File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) On your server network connection to the clients, increase the Receive TCP/IP buffers to 2,048 or whatever the highest it will go. This will result in less dropped packets. In TestComplete, set your Host addresses to their TCP/IP v4 address,not name More advanced Troubleshooting: Install Wireshark, examine packets on your client network interface. Look for bursts of unexpected traffic, duplicate IP addresses, and packet re-transmission requests. If any of those are present, resolve as necessary. I have yet to see a client communication problem after I implemented these fixes.Of course, your mileage may vary. I was able to "Verify" jobs on 25 clients up to 40 times in a row without a single client getting stuck.2.6KViews1like0CommentsRe: TestComplete stuck
The support team is awesome! However, I think the issues -we- are experiencing have more to do with the network than the product. I have been experimenting with network card settings, switch settings and verifying my suspicions through Wireshark. Hopefully, I will be able to write up my findings in a blog. So far, the tweaks I have made have helped. Just wanted to confirm for the original user that yes - hangs have been seen. Frequent? no. Cause? unknown as of yet to me. Once I can eliminate the state of the network as being a potential cause, then I can turn my attention back to any issues with the product. This product rocks - I love it :)2.6KViews0likes0Comments- 2.6KViews0likes0Comments
Re: Write : custom script extension for logging
I've been using this type of logging for 6 years now, ever since we purchased TestComplete 6.0. These days, I have 25 machines running it and if anyone has an issue - its _really_ easy to figure out where, when and how a problem occurred. If there is any interest, I can port this for use with Keyword testing. However, I rarely use Keyword testing so I don't know the demand for advanced logging capabilities in that interface.802Views0likes0CommentsWrite : custom script extension for logging
Hello all, I would like to share with the TestComplete community a custom script extension which adds "new" message types and a hierarchical folder structure to the log. This is similar to some code I shared a few months back but it has been re-packaged as an extension - any script language can use it. The highlights of this script extension are: Adds test result entries such as ‘Pass’, ‘Fail’, and ‘Warning’ Adds run time debugging entries like ‘Bug’, ‘Assert’, ‘Debug’ Test results organized by categories Support for all TestComplete programming languages Ability to follow test execution through an external debugger Works in TestComplete or Test Execute Complete documentation has been prepared for it and I encourage anyone who wants to customize the layout and appearance of their logs to look at it. Even if you don't use what I have provided, it can be further customized to your needs or even provide insight into script extension mechanics. There are no custom libraries here - its all Javascript - and its free. You can read more about it on my TestComplete blog or download directly from here.19KViews0likes2Comments
