Wix and testcomplete
Hello, Our dev team has recently migrated from WISE installs to Wix. Our functional automation team was very enthusiastic about this because we were under the impression that the object mapping for Wix would utilize CLR and therefore make finding controls easier for us. In the past with WISE we were forced in some cases to map controls based on the label associated with that control. This is because we could not rely on a unique identifier for the control on a given screen during a given installation. Most controls were represented as UIA controls or MSAA controls with no consistent naming. We have browsed the installs now implemented with Wix and the mapping really hasn't changed much. Most controls are still UIA or MSAA. Some members of our group were under the impression that these controls would map to .NET NativeClrObjects. One member claims to have got this to work on a particular machine. As of yet we have not been able to reproduce this. My question is, is there a way to get these controls to map to NativeClrObjects. Is there something we are missing or were we mistaken that these controls could be represented as NativeClrObjects? Thanks, Paul12KViews0likes1CommentRe: TC7 slowness when populating text fields
Hello AQA People, I have taken a dump while this issue re-occured. However, its a large dump. About 1/2 gig. Could you please give me the url to your ftp server and instruct where to place the dmp file? Or if there is an alternative please let me know. Thanks, Paul960Views0likes0CommentsRe: TC7 slowness when populating text fields
Hello All, Awhile back I recall someone at Automatedqa mentioning an issue with multi-core processors and tc/te possibly being the cause of this slowness problem. They mentioned setting processor affinity on the machine to one core. Can anyone at Automatedqa explain how to set processor affinity? Thanks, Paul1.2KViews0likes0Commentstestcomplete running really slow
Hello, I frequently come across this issue where I notice that testcomplete is all of the sudden running incredibly slow when populating text fields with text. The method for populating the text fields is Sys.Keys(). I notice this on both XP and Vista 32 bit (haven't tried it on other os's). When I check performance I notice that the page faults are through the roof with alot of I/O reads. This is occuring on TestComplete 7.5 . I really slows testing down and is very inconvenient. Thanks, Paul22KViews0likes1CommentTC7 slowness when populating text fields
Hello All, I'm having an issue. We just upgraded to TC7.5 . We are running test runs on an xp vmware machine. We have about 150 tests in a run. About a quarter to halfway into the test run, tests start running incredibly slow. Particularly when populating text field are being populated. The test will add one character and then stall like 30 seconds then add another and so on. We're using Sys.Keys for most of this. Has anybody experienced this or have an idea why its happening? Thanks, Paul22KViews0likes31CommentsTestComplete 6 to TestComplete 7 project conversion
Hello, Our functional automation team has begun upgrading from 6.5 to 7.5. We are testing our projects with 7.5. Upon opening the project we are asked to convert it to be 7.5 compatible. We've gone ahead and done this for our local projects but eventually we'll have to check the converted projects into our production version via TFS. Does anyone know exactly which files get converted during this process, so we can just check those in as opposed to every file in our project? Thanks, Paul11KViews0likes2Comments
