But now I am working in the other part (anAdmin module), and it's making me crazy. Scenario: -All objects in the app are very badly labelled in the native code. Imagine a structure where the first object is mapped in the Object Browser as "Foo:Form > Foo:FooContainer > FooFrame" , and the next as "FooForm1>FooWMDClient>FooForm>FooFrame", and the third as...well, you get the idea. I've been trying to wild card full names in the Name Mapping Editor, but that hasn't helped with the problem in the next bullet point. I can start up recording a keyword test, successfully complete it, but then immediately after I can right-click on an element in the test and select "Highlight", and TestComplete will tell me that object doesn't exist. Any suggestions from people who have faced similar scenarios would be appreciated. Automatically covering areas of logged screenshots Is there any way to set up TestComplete to put a black rectangle or square over a defined area in a test case, to hide personal information? SolvedRe: TestComplete15 Service and Virtual Machines Vmware Version 7 update 3g CPU = 6 CPU cores Memory = 8GB Disk space - 80 GB I am running TestComplete on a VM as Operations here didn't want it installed on my laptop. Using a simple PowerShell script, I can see that the service consumes about 8 MB of the memory when TestComplete starts. TestComplete15 Service and Virtual Machines I have to run my copy of TestComplete on a VM due to company policies. The TestComplete15 service sets the CPU to 100% if I don't shut it down before I sign out of the VM, so then the VM becomes unusable and I have to open an internal ticket to get a reboot. I've developed PowerShell scripts as a workaround, but I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered the same problem and has a more elegant solution. Re: Name mapping popup from Object Spy appears behind Object Spy window Updating TestComplete hasn't resolved the issue. Re: Name mapping popup from Object Spy appears behind Object Spy window My settings match the screenshot. I will update later and see if that resolves the issue. Re: Name mapping popup from Object Spy appears behind Object Spy window 15.40.421 I see there is an update available, I will open a ticket to get my installation updated and try again. Name mapping popup from Object Spy appears behind Object Spy window Clicking on the circled element brings the popup behind the main window, which makes dealing with it very annoying. Is this localized to my environment, or have others seen the same behaviour? Exiting from inside a Python script What is supported in TestComplete to exit a script from within an if statement? import sys . . . .sys.exit() is not recognized. Nor is quit().
