Getting “NameError: 'aqFileSystem' is not defined” after upgrading to TestComplete v15.77.6.7 (x64).
This issue did not occur in the previous versions of TestComplete. It seems that the aqFileSystem object is no longer being recognized or initialized properly after the latest update. Can anyone find a solution to solve this issue???
Stop Skimming PDFs, Start Automating PDF Testing
On the surface, PDFs look simple, but testing them is a whole different story. Invoices, contracts, statements, compliance reports… they’re often the last thing that lands in a customer’s hands. That also means even the smallest issue, like a missing field or a misplaced decimal, can turn into something big. The challenge is that PDFs aren’t like web pages or apps where you can easily inspect elements. They’re containers packed with content, layout, images, and data from different systems. When you add in dynamic content that changes for every customer, formatting that has to stay perfect, and the regulatory risks in industries like finance or healthcare, you start to see why manual testing just doesn’t cut it. It’s slow, inconsistent, and doesn’t scale. This is where automation becomes essential. With automation, you can make sure data is always accurate, layouts stay consistent, and testing scales across thousands of documents without slowing down your team. Instead of spending hours opening PDFs by hand, QA can focus on higher-value work while still knowing that every report or statement going out the door is right. That’s exactly where TestComplete comes in. It’s built to handle the tough parts of PDF testing so you don’t have to. You can validate content down to the last character, run visual checks to keep layouts consistent, and plug it all straight into your CI/CD pipeline. The result is faster releases, fewer headaches, and a lot more confidence that the documents your customers see are exactly as they should be.

Sys.OleObject. Microsoft Office (Word, Excel)
I want to get the properties and methods of an already running Microsoft Office (Word, Excel) application. For this I use OLE object but I get an error "This command is not available because no document is open." I take into account what is written in the documentation: Note for Microsoft Office users: In order to be able to get an OLE object for an already running application, this application must be registered in the Running Object Table (ROT). However, Microsoft Office applications that are launched from the shell (for example, from the Start menu or the TestedApps project item) do not register their running objects at startup, but rather once the application loses focus. So, if you obtain an OLE object for an already running Office application, you may get errors when accessing its properties and methods (for more information on this problem, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/238610/). To work around the problem, you can activate any window other than the tested Office application before attaching to its OLE server. This will allow the Office application to register itself in the ROT, so you will be able to work with it via OLE. In scripts, you can activate a window using the Activate or Click action. For example, use the following statement to activate the Windows taskbar This worked in TestComplete9 but doesn't work now (TestComplete15). Maybe there is some solution for this case? I use DelphiScript
How to create a folders inside projectSuite/project which folders will exist on the hard drive ?
Hi, everyone! I know that it is possible to create folders in project suite or in project, but those folders does not exists on the hard drive. Is it possible create folders which they are will exists on the hard drive ? We are using TestComplete for writing tests for desktop app also we are using Pycharm for debugging because often it is difficult to navigate to methods or classes by clicking on the names. And when using Pycharm the script files are unorganized because created folders on project suite/project does not exists on the hard drive.
QT - Error No such interface supported
Has anyone been able to test modern QT applications 6.7 or 6.8 and get it to work. I cannot even get the simple example applications from QT to function. According to support currently 6.7 and 6.8 are supported, but neither seem to work. Just using the object browser shows error for most items, and none of the QT related methods are even displaying or accessible. See attached image. Any one have a solution to this? **I tried to upload a small zip file that contains the QT sample app, but the forum prevents it from being uploaded.Failed to verify login request
I just logged into a new system that I haven't used TestComplete in a while. It did have an older version of TestComplete on it so I uninstalled it and installed the latest version. Now when I'm trying to login it pops up "Failed to verify login request" error even though I was logged in and the product code showed up. I tried pasting the product code onto the license manager but TestComplete still wouldn't start. See attached.
