Long delays when stepping through code
When running code encounters a breakpoint it usually takes about 5 seconds for before the application is responsive and the watch list is updated. This also occurs when stepping through code one line at a time - which makes this feature unusable from a practical point of view. Is there any way to reduce this delay? This also occurs when the watch list is empty. I read on one of these forums that installing Microsoft Script Debugger might make a difference but it did not seem to do so - maybe it was not configured correctly?13KViews0likes1CommentOutlining disappears if TestComplete crashes
I've spent a bit of time setting up outlining in my code, however every time TestComplete crashes (maybe once a week), all this outlining (along with other trivial user settings such as window location) is removed. Is there any way to retrieve this or prevent it happening next time? I do not have details of the application crash - however I do send in details on most occasions it happens.15KViews0likes1CommentRe: WaitChild does not appear to recognise when a Link object appears in a webpage
Hi David, Thanks for your response. I had previously tried the WaitLink method but did not realise that I could specify my link using an index. Using the link name does not work, but using an index, as you suggest, did work. So thanks very much for your help!950Views0likes0CommentsRe: WaitChild does not appear to recognise when a Link object appears in a webpage
Thanks for your response. I did think of that, so tried running this code: Set logoutLink = Sys.Process("iexplore").Page(uRL).Panel(0).Panel(0).WaitChild("Panel(1)", 1000) Set logoutLink = Sys.Process("iexplore").Page(uRL).Panel(0).Panel(0).Panel(1).WaitChild("Link(2)", 1000) However the code only fails on the second line (the new Link(2) object), so that does not appear to be the problem951Views0likes0CommentsWaitChild does not appear to recognise when a Link object appears in a webpage
I cannot get WaitChild to work for a logout Link which only appears after user has logged in: Set logoutLink = Sys.Process("iexplore").Page(uRL).Panel(0).Panel(0).Panel(1).WaitChild("Link(2)", 1000) If I insert a sleep(100) before the line of code above it works, but that defeats the object of trying to use the WaitChild method22KViews0likes4Comments
