Re: Scheduling Automated Tests in TestComplete version 9.31.3889.7.
I think it's possible with version 9. I'm using that method nightly with version 9, but using TestExecute instead of TestComplete. The reason is TestComplete license is much more expensive to install on many VMs and test nightly. I use TestComplete only for development. Here are some related threads you may interest: http://smartbear.com/forums/f74/t91963/testcomplet-to-automate-installation-of-applica/ http://smartbear.com/forums/f81/t88067/possible-to-run-an-execution-list-of-testcomple http://smartbear.com/forums/f74/t82636/running-tests-remotely-via-command-line1.5KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Build Extensions for TestComplete
I also practiced after the webinar to re-build the PhoneNumber checkpoint extension. So far, I have always been stuck at this line: Syntax.CreateInvoke() TestComplete (both 9 and 10) keeps telling me 'Syntax' is undefined. I read these two pages many many times. It seemed to me that I didn't have to add any extra script/library to call Syntax object from those examples. http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/57457/ http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/57493/?utm_source=site-search&utm_medium=search-results&utm_campaign=site-search-c&utm_term=Syntax.CreateInvoke Note: I installed all available extensions given by SmartBear as well (Select Change on SmartBear in Control Panel and choose Modify to install extensions). Do you have any idea to overcome this situation? Many thanks.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: TestComplet to Automate Installation of Application on the VM machine.
Are you going to use Keyword testing or writing your own test script? I have done the same task by using my own script (VBScript). Basically what I did was simple. In my test script, I specify my builder servers. Then every night, I have Windows task to execute my script so that I can grab the new build and execute it on VMs. All my VMs have my code and TestExecute installed. Windows Task actually calls TestExecute to launch my test project via command. I can tell you more detail if your requirement is alike.1.6KViews1like1CommentRe: Possible to run an execution list of Testcomplete Project with Test Execute?
lee hou Reputation: 75 Dear Robert Dear Viper, Thanks for your help!! I will try the scripts try out. The basic idea was that i did expect that i could run all my testprojects with testexecute just like testcomplete without any additional effort. It seems like testexecute has only very limited feature.. Br, Li I was expecting the same when I came across this issue. Unfortunately, group executing is not available by TE cmd by default yet (or as far as I know). I think it's still acceptable to include additional scripts as my suggestions above to do the job since it's pretty simple. Hopefully the command will be included to TE by default in next versions. Let me know if it works for you. robert Martin: No problem, use as your will ;). I understand Lee Hou's point here when he said TE is limited. - If he creates many groups and enables them in his project, TestComplete has no problem to execute all of those groups by one F5 command. - However, he cannot find the equivalent command to run the same scenerio on TestExecute, which leads him to the question in this topic. With this point, TE has limitations compared with TC.2.7KViews1like0CommentsRe: Possible to run an execution list of Testcomplete Project with Test Execute?
lee hou Hi Robert, Thanks for your reply, sorry about confusion of "execution list", i mean list of testitems of the project editor, please also see also attached snapshot. As you see i have different "execution lists" for different test tasks. i would like to be able to run any of the list with testexecute. And for each test there is predefined timeout limit, i created timeout event handler if a testitem runs timeout it should be stopped and go to next testitem. Ifi can neither define timeout limit of testitems nor run the list in testexecute, my test performance will suffer from testrun without timeout handler. Could you help me to find a solution? thanks for the support. Br, Lee Post attachments: executionlist.png @lee hou: I think these are what you need: 1. VBScript: http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/54654/. This one works perfectly for me now. 2. JavaScript: http://www.sqaforums.com/forums/automatedqa-smartbear-testcomplete/148259-unable-run-tests-under-batch-group.html Example: cscript "<path>\RunTestItemGroup.vbs" "<projectfile>.pjs" /p:<projectname> /testitemgroup:<groupname> /r /silentmode /e Only one limitation is that if you want to execute a group by TestExecute command, you need to make sure your group is checked off in the project file. This one is inconvenient when you want to debug a particular group only in your development time. You need to disable unwanted groups before debugging. However, if your groups don't cross each other, there is no problem at all.2.7KViews3likes0CommentsRe: GridList Checkbox
amit gupta Hi Viper Thanks For giving valuable time . But This shared code(ClickCheckboxGridColumn) is not working properly becasue During Execution of same code , TestCompleted is unable to find view index.So script is failed. If you have another solution please let me know You may want to try different view index or ask your development dept. to see which views they are using. They may use many views as well. As long as you can spy the grid object, the rest should be easy. My grid control is TcxGridSite. To find out why you cannot spy the objects, we may need to go back to Tanya Gorbunova's questions.2.8KViews0likes0CommentsRe: TestExecute + Jenkins
Jose Pita Hey Guys, Anyone knows how to terminate "testcomplete.exe" in a batch file? taskkill does not work with testcomplete, I guess it does not have permissions or something... Reason: Acess is denied I guess you have some permission issue with your windows user. I can kill testcomplete and testexecute normally without any effort. I always test my app with admin users. The batch file looks like this: call:killProcesses ::--------------------------------------------- ::-- General functions------------------- ::--------------------------------------------- :killProcesses - Wait 3 minutes before killing all tasks echo. echo Killing IE, Excel, TestExecute and TestCompleteService... echo. timeout /T 180 taskkill /im TestExecute.exe /t /f taskkill /im TestCompleteService9.exe /t /f taskkill /im TestComplete.exe /t /f taskkill /im iexplore.exe /t /f taskkill /im excel.exe /t /f echo.
