TC cannot detect the object in canvas apps?
We have an app designed by Canvas App, and published in Power Apps now. We tried to use testComplete to implement automation testing, but related object cannot detect by Object spy, and it's reported message that "https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/common-tasks/frames.html". I also input below code before script running, and it still cannot idetect the object. Browsers.Item("edge").RunOptions = "--disable-web-security --user-data-dir=\"C:\\Users\\Tester\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\Edge\\User Data\\Default\" --disable-site-isolation-trials" Tips: My testComplete version is 15.82.62.7 x64
TC not recognizing PrimeNg ContextMenu options
Yesterday, I updated to TestComplete 15.81.7.7 and now my tests are no longer able to select the context menu options. I am able to select a table row and I can right click on that row and the context menu options come up OK. I have code to look for them and TestComplete can find them OK, but the click() doesn't seem to do anything. I tried recording tests, and those work, but TestComplete always names them very specific to what is on the screen at the time and in a very odd way e.g. //td[.="value from cell in table"] which doesn't work with other data. In my code, a specific ContextMenu item named Fred will have the xpath: //p-contextmenu//li[@aria-label="Fred"]//span[@class="p-contextmenu-item-label"][.="Fred"] I can find it using the Chrome Dev Tools and I have code in TestComplete to verify its existence before I do a click and it exists, but the click doesn't seem to have any effect. Any help would be appreciated because this is a very hot task I am working on and will go a long way towards management approving more resources to TestComplete if I can get this done in a short time.TestComplete not recognizing WPF objects in interopped WPF window
I have an application that I am testing that uses both Delphi VCL and WPF, connected together via a Windows Forms interop layer. The WPF portion is using .NET 10. Initially, TestComplete was not able to see anything inside the Windows Forms wrapper at all, and was only showing it to me in the object browser with a name like "Window("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.[some numbers]", "", 1)", with a subitem of "Window("HwndWrapper[DefaultDomain;;[some numbers]", "", 1)". I was able to get past that by adding "HwndWrapper*" to the list of accepted windows in the project properties for Open Applications -> UI Automation. This now shows all of the WPF items as UIAObjects. However, I would really like to have all of the TestComplete WPFObject wrappers. Is there another setting/configuration I need to do somewhere to be able to do that? Again just for clarity, the main application is a Delphi VCL win32 application. That application is hosting a Windows Forms control in part of its display (the Windows Forms control is COM visible and loaded in via COM into a TGenericOleCtrl in Delphi VCL). The Windows Forms window is then hosting WPF controls (via ElementHost).
TestComplete detects the table control itself, but none of the internal row/cell objects are exposed
I have a table-like control similar to the one in the screenshot. Using "Add Object" in TestComplete, I can capture the main table object. (object: Aliases.Icad.dlgAECStylesManager.Item.SysListView32) However, when I explore it in the Object Browser, the table exposes only one child object — the header. There are no row objects, no cell objects, and no data nodes visible under the table. Because of this, TestComplete cannot interact with the table using the normal object model (such as row/cell access, FindChild, ClickCell, etc.). My goal is to automate editing based on the row index. For example: Update the “Name” column for the row where Index = 101 (change it to "Testing1"). Has anyone encountered this type of control or found a reliable solution for automating tables that do not expose row/cell objects? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!Object Brower : annoying behavior
Hi everyone ! I have a very annoying issue. Sometimes, the object browser load the DOM in the same manner than "legacy features". The normal behavior is this : Custom Angular components are properly detected, like "AppSignRoot" in this example. But sometimes, the tree look like this : Custom components are not properly detected. Here, the "AppSignRoot" node is "Panel(4)". If I hit the refresh button, everything gets back to normal like the first screenshot. But, calling the Refresh() method on the page object or browser object (in my script and / or test item) does nothing. The DOM is randomly not detected properly. And I'm out of solutions. Any idea ?
Object Recognition Challenges? Help Us Understand Your Use Cases
Hello TestComplete Community! We’re working on a new Visual Object Detection (VOD) capability powered by AI, designed to make it easier to test applications where traditional object recognition struggles. This feature aims to help you reliably identify visual elements that are hard to detect today. To make sure we’re building this in the most useful and relevant way, we’d love to learn more about your current challenges and use cases related to visual or hard-to-recognize objects. Your real-world scenarios will help shape how we design and prioritize VOD. Feel free to share your thoughts by replying directly to this post, or send me a private message if you prefer. Thank you in advance for your feedback we truly appreciate it! Temil Sanchez Product ManagerGeneral issues interacting with Desktop/Web app
Main Question: Does anyone else use TestComplete to test a C++ MFC (Rogue Wave + Stingray) application? If so, are you able to see the MSVC attributes when using TestComplete version 1577 and/or 1578? Background: Today I've spent testing out different versions of TestComplete. Version 15.68 through 15.76 have no issues accessing the MSVC properties (attributes) of the C++ application. However, version 15.77 can no longer see certain attributes for the C++ application. However, version 15.77 is the first version that can successfully interact with dropdowns in a browser (chrome 141). I cannot downgrade the version of Chrome. Currently I am forced to use version 15.76 or earlier for testing the desktop application and version 15.77 or later to test the web applications. This is not optimal and am concerned about the more recent versions not able to access the MSVC properties.
