Suppress automatic description fill during recording of a keyword test (keep it blank).
After recording a keyword test, the first thing I do is blank out the description for every new line. Here's why: The concocted description gives no added value. You can look at the other three columns and figure things out easily. When I want to override the concocted description with my own comment, it blends with the other lines that have concocted descriptions, thus, camouflaging my descriptions that I want other testers to see easily. Having unnecessary descriptionsbloats (a weelittle bit at a time) files that have to be checked in to source control. So the idea in baxatob's community postis great and would meet my needs. A variation of this idea would be an all-time option to enable or disable. If it is enabled, you could press an option to blank outconcocteddescriptions in all lines of the current test after it has been recorded (excluding lines that have already been manually edited, which is already being tagged as in the keyword test file asDescriptionEdited="True"). (One might say I should use Comments to do what I am wanting. However,I use "Comments" to introduce a section of operations, and Description to giveexplanation on a specific line of code as needed. So, I use both Comments and Description) (Note: This idea pertains only to Keyword Testing, not converting a Keyword Test to a script, which does have a mechanism to strip out Description.)
Network Suite Jobs: Keyword-Test selection
Hi, i use TestComplete and TextExecute on a remote machine. In my TestComplete workspace i got many Keyword-Tests. Now i want to add multiple tests to the Jobs in the Network Suite but i can only select one test at once and it takes its time until the test is loaded from the remote TestExecute into the NetworkSuite.Why it took so long to choose and load a test for a NetworkSuite Job? I want to quick add multiple tests to the Job list without waiting after each new test added. It should be possible to drag and drop the KeywordTests in TestComplete to the NetworkSuite Job list. Furthermore i didn´t understand the behavior of the remote test selection window. There is no directory hierarchy like in the project workspace and i have to scroll across a large list of test and the next bad thing: the lists isn´t sortedalphabetically. Searching the right test in a list withover 200 KeywordTests without directory structure or sorting function is a time-killing job :) Hope you will find a better way for this. Long live the softwareergonomics!
A "Select Parameters ..." button on the Edit Expression window
When editing a keyword test and writing a code expression there is buttons for selecting an On Screen Object, an Object and a Variable. Clicking any of these opens up a nice easy to use wizard, rather than having to type the expression. Could we have a buttonfor Parameters added to this screen?
