Re: FireFox 67.0.1 patch
also, there are different patches for each major version, but the minor version tripped testcomplete, so there is sensitivity to the minor versions. i was running 67.0 and all we well, but when 67.0.1 installed testcomplete threw an error saying i needed to look for a patch. fyi.1.5KViews0likes0CommentsRe: FireFox 67.0.1 patch
:smileytongue: yes, well i'm currently working on building out a functional core and not working on a 'stable' setup. hence the auto-updated browser. but yes, once we have some of those details settled i will ensure that the environment is stable. in this case i was just wondering what the turn-around time is for new browser patch releases. we are just starting work on some functional web testing at my company, so i'm learning all the stuffs. thanks for your help tristaanogre1.5KViews0likes1CommentRe: Create Property on Test Object
like i said, the naming convention is one aspect. the other reason is adding custom properties/methods. i agree that this requires work, everything requires effort. i am looking at this as foundational work that will enable other things to be built on top. consistency is critical to building a stable codebase. if the code is not consistent then we have no assurance about what to expect. as i said, i have a means to accomplish what i'm trying to do, that will work. i was just wondering if there was some secret coolness in the testcomplete that i did not know about. thanks tristaanogre1.8KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Create Property on Test Object
morning! thanks for your replies tristaanogre and TanyaYatskovska and sorry i did not respond sooner... tristaanogre i get the fact that the test object is an object defined by the application under test, however, there are a number of properties and methods that testcomplete adds to that object reference. what i was hoping to do is just that: add some more properties/methods to the test object, just like the testcomplete engine is doing when it acquires a reference to the object. so in my example, what i'm trying to do is wrap the test objects with plain old python objects (POPO). but for convenience, i was hoping to be able to create properties/methods on the POPOs that point to the test object properties/methods, but that have custom names. i want to be able to reference the properties/methods of test objects but i want to use snake_case for naming in my project, so on the POPO i want to have mapped_name, not MappedName, and type instead of ObjectType. essentially, what i wanted to do (initially) is to alias existing properties/methods. although, i would also like to add other properties/methods to test objects if this can be done. i have found many cases where i would like to add customized methods to test objects. right now i have properties on the POPO that are pointing at the test object's properties/methods. like so. class AwesomeClass(): name = 'awesome' test_object = Aliases.TestObject type = self.test_object.ObjectType so then i can do this to read the ObjectType property of the test object awesome = AwesomeClass() if awesome.type == 'Panel': ... but what i would like to do is class AwesomeClass(): name = 'awesome' test_object = Aliases.TestObject self_add_type() def add_type(self): self.test_object.type = self.test_object.ObjectType again, what i was hoping to accomplish here is to modify the testobject to suit the way i am working with it, creating custom aliases for existing properties/methods, and also to create custom properties/methods. this would be helpful and cleaner i think if it is possible. please share any suggestions you have. thanks!1.8KViews0likes2CommentsCreate Property on Test Object
Is there a way to create a property on a test object? Essentially I'm looking for a way to add properties to a test object at runtime. Example: test_object = Aliases.Object test_object.some_property = 'some important text' or AddProperty(test_object, some_property, 'some important text') All I can find in the help files are references to the Object Driven Testing (ODT) stuff which is deprecated. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!Solved1.9KViews0likes5CommentsRe: Find Usages of Name Mapping Objects / Aliases
Good article and definitely a helpful feature. Thanks for sharing Dmitry_Nikolaev . But it does not look like the Show Usage feature has clickable/linked navigation to the items identified. This the last part of the original request. Do you plan to build in usage locations and navigation to those locations?4KViews0likes0Comments
