TestComplete plugin on VS Code
I like Testcomplete and all it's features, however, when needing to write code it is a bit of a pain (intellisense, styling, code completion, indenting, etc., all do not work well). Instead of coding in Testcomplete, can we add support in VS Code for development and execution? Still have it tied to the license and no need for namemapping, at least not right away, so we can take advantage of a smoother ide. I currently use python with TestComplete.Allow OOP coding with full intellisense in Testcomplete
I understand that Testcomplete is a scripting language and some use the tool for automation script development with "record & playback", however, it would be much appreciated have the option of developing using a oop design patterns. Python and JavaScript are powerful languages. By relegating them to a script code style is stripping away their best features. Those that use JavaScript and Python for automation are using them with selenium which does not have a great way to automate desktop applications. By allowing users to choose to develop oop code with the namemapping features, Testcomplete can work as the preferred IDE for automation.
Settings profiles
The suggestion is to allow a TestComplete user the ability to define "profiles" for settings/options. For a simple example, while I am developing tests, I might want to set error handling to "Stop Project", slow down the playback events or store all logs. But, when TestComplete tests are "in production" (run nightly from Jenkins, for example), the settings might need to be different; I might want error handling to be "Stop and rerun current item", playback events at their defaults or only keep the 5 most recent logs for example.
Implementation of OnWebPageDownloaded event for Chrome & Edge browser
As part of the Event Handlers, we have lot of events in TestComplete which are easy to implement in Project and helps to reduce manual effort. There is one Event called 'OnWebPageDownloaded' which occurs post the web browser loads a page specified by URL. However, this event is supported to IE browser and MS Web Browser control only. This event is not supported to Chrome & Edge browser as both are mode from Chromium engine. Please implement this event for other browsers like Chrome, Edge & Firefox browser as a future purpose.. That will helps to implement same event across all the browsers.Allow 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 screen through script. In my case, I'm running a group of tests in TestComplete against a specific device, and I'm taking a screen recording of the desktop at the same time. After all the tests run against the device, the same group of tests will be run again using a different device. 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.
