Working in TestComplete while an NetworkSuite-Job is running
I got one license for TestComplete and one license for TestExecute on a remote machine. When i´m executing in TestComplete a NetworkSuite-Job on the remote TestExecute i can´t work on my KeywordTest/Scripts/ect. while its executing. (The strange thing is: i can open KeywordTests, i can add other tests to it but i can´t delete these - so why?). So my idea is just an call-for-action: Please make TestComplete workable, while it´s executing remote things!17KViews22likes14CommentsLabelling/Categorising Tests
It would be useful for me if TestComplete supported labeling (or categories) for tests. Most of my tests are regression, however some are security/permissions tests. The permissions tests are long running and I wouldlike to clearly identify them as such using a label or category. Itcould then be possible to run all tests with a particular label or category in a project that would usually be disabled on a standard test run.5.2KViews7likes6CommentsNetwork 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!8.4KViews5likes5CommentsBDD - Enhance step definition generation
For Cucumber steps, TestComplete doesn't generate step definition with Keyword And. It only generates steps with Given, When, & Then Keywords. This causes code duplicity. Module 1: Scenario: Check and Open app Given I have app installed on my machine And I install DB on SQL Server for "IM" And I should open app with "IM" database as "default" user Module2: Scenario: Prerequisite for app Given I have app installed on my machine And I install DB on SQL Server for "CF" Then I install Application Server on my machine "CF" with "WorkflowFeature" And I should open app with "CF" database as "default" user In the above 2 steps are the same And I should open app with "IM" database as "default" user And I should open app with "CF" database as "default" user and should have only one step definition. But TestComplete generates 2 steps definitions, one with Given And other with Then. Cucumber, in general, doesn't take keywords in consideration while doing the step matching but in TestComplete it does. This is causing the problem and creating a lot of duplicate code. We are looking for solution where TestComplete uses Cucumbers basic feature and do not consider Keywords while doing step matching and generates step definitions with all the keywords.We are looking for solution where TestComplete uses Cucumbers basic feature and do not consider Keywords while doing step matching and generates step definitions with all the keywords.1.9KViews4likes3CommentsAllow changing the device displayed by the mobile screen through script
It would be nice if we could change the device being displayed by the mobile screenthroughscript. In my case, I'm running a group of tests in TestComplete against a specific device, and I'm taking a screen recordingof the desktopatthe same time. After all the tests run against the device, the same group of tests will be runagain usinga differentdevice. Unless I manually change the device being displayed,the mobile screen will only display the first device selected. This limits my ability to run tests overnight since I need to change the device displayed before each device's test run.3.4KViews4likes0CommentsTestComplete Jenkins Enhancement
In the current version of the Jenkins plugin for TestComplete there are fields for user and password if running test as an interactive user session. Today these are freeform. I would like to make the recommendation that the plugin use the built in Jenkins credentials manager to select the user to run as from. In today's world with the need for increased security, we are required to have passwords rotate regularly. If we have hundreds of test jobs built out in Jenkins, we would have to modify each and every one of these each time passwords rotate. If the credentials manager is used, you can go to one location, and update the password for the account and not have to worry about modifying each individual job. Thoughts? Anyone else have this issue? Have you found other ways to address?2KViews3likes0Comments
