Find and Use a Sibling Object Starting from an AliasChild Object
I am attempting to find an object that is located directly next to an initial object. The way I am attempting to do this is by trying to get the .Parent of the initial object, then attempting to do a WaitPanel Function call on the parent object to locate the desired child. Though in attempting this, it is unable to find the Panel object. Both the Desired Object and Parent Container do not have an static ID or class that can assist directly with object discovery, and the text inside this "Panel(0)" object changes on every instance. For Example: let anchorobj = [PathToProcess.Page].WaitAliasChild("MappedName", 1000); //This is our Panel(1) object, this is found successfully and hence can be used without issue let parent = anchorobj.Parent; //I want this to be the Panel(2) object the anchorobj is nested in, though this does not seem to be true let desiredobject = parent.WaitPanel(0, 1000); //This is creating a Utils.CreateStubObject() as far as I can tell where desiredobject.Exists == false; I want this to get the Panel(0) object marked as Desired Object Is there a better/more correct way to do this method of attempting to get this object?
Problem accessing variables inside of Python scripts
Having issues with accessing variables inside of Python scripts -- all kinds of variables from Project Suite Variables to Project Variables to Keyword test variables. It is giving me an object not found error. I will shut down TestComplete and bring it up fresh. The first time I run the script, it runs perfectly, but every time I run it after that, it fails. I have tried accessing variables via a Keyword and that seems to work OK. It is only when I call a Python script do I get this unusual behavior. As a side issue, which may or may not be related, I also cannot get Log.Message() to work inside of my Python scripts, but it does seem to work inside the Keyword tests, just like above. I am running 15.76.5.7 on a Windows 11 machine and the AUT is a web application.
Issue using Excel and variables in name mapping
I am using variables in name mapping objects to pull data from an Excel sheet and then verify with Property Checkpoints. It is working fine for the first 3 rows in my sheet. But on the fourth row I am getting an error for the address. The previous 3 addresses worked fine. The local variable was updated and checkpoint passed. Also the first four checkpoints for this fourth row of data worked fine, it just fails on the address. I cannot figure out why this fourth one is failing. Any ideas? Lots of info/screenshots below that will hopefully help. Name Mapping object using variable: Project level variable: Excel sheet with address data: function ReadManifestData() { // Get the sheet of the Excel file var excelFile = Excel.Open(Project.ConfigPath + "Datasheet.xlsx"); var excelSheet = excelFile.SheetByTitle("ViewData"); // Read data from the Excel file var RowIndex = KeywordTests.CheckManifestScreen.Variables.RowIndex_KW; var Order_Num = excelSheet.Cell("A", RowIndex).Value; var HIN_Num = excelSheet.Cell("B", RowIndex).Value; var TrackNum = excelSheet.Cell("C", RowIndex).Value; var Forecasted = excelSheet.Cell("D", RowIndex).Value; var Street_Addr = excelSheet.Cell("E", RowIndex).Value; var ServiceLevel = excelSheet.Cell("F", RowIndex).Value; var Commit_Time = excelSheet.Cell("G", RowIndex).Value; var Cons_Name = excelSheet.Cell("H", RowIndex).Value; var Floor_Num = excelSheet.Cell("I", RowIndex).Value; var Postal_Code = excelSheet.Cell("J", RowIndex).Value; var City_Name = excelSheet.Cell("K", RowIndex).Value; var State_Name = excelSheet.Cell("L", RowIndex).Value; var Country_Code = excelSheet.Cell("M", RowIndex).Value; var Urbanization = excelSheet.Cell("N", RowIndex).Value; Project.Variables.Order_Num_KW = Order_Num; Project.Variables.HIN_Num_KW = HIN_Num; Project.Variables.TrackNum_KW = TrackNum; Project.Variables.Forecasted_KW = Forecasted; Project.Variables.StreetAddr_KW = Street_Addr; Project.Variables.ServiceLevel_KW = ServiceLevel; Project.Variables.Commit_Time_KW = Commit_Time; Project.Variables.ConsName_KW = Cons_Name; Project.Variables.Floor_Num_KW = Floor_Num; Project.Variables.Postal_Code_KW = Postal_Code; Project.Variables.City_Name_KW = City_Name; Project.Variables.State_Name_KW = State_Name; Project.Variables.Country_Code_KW = Country_Code; Project.Variables.Urbanization_KW = Urbanization; } Keyword test: Log:
Name Mapping not working on remote browser
The name mapping and test cases work fine on local browsers, but would complain about page or object not found when running headless remote browsers and in parallel testing. I have the following setup for browser name mapping: For headless setup I have: server = "localhost" capabilities = { "browserName": "chrome", "headless" : "true", "screenResolution": "1920x1080", "platform" : "Headless", "record_video": "true" } Browsers.RemoteItem[server, capabilities].Run(url) Is this the correct way to work with name mapping on headless browser?
KeywordTests - Setting Random Name
Brand new to using testcomplete and I don't have coding experience. I have a lastname field in my application and I want to record a test that will generate a random name. I've used the Generate Data wizard to create a LastNameVar and FirstNameVar in my project. I then select those for the value where I'm trying to pass them in to my application. However, when I reach that step, nothing is passed, and I receive an exception stating 'A row index must be an integer value'. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Suggestions?Change the OS region format all at once
Hi all, is there a way to change the regional setting so that we change the format based on a given format such as French-France ('fr-FR') : I saw that i can use the script to change the SetLocaleInfo to change each properties one by one, but i would prefer to use the Format pre-set settings to tests. Thank you.
(JavaScript) Unable to get value(s) from TableVariable passed to a function
Hi folks, I want to pass a Table Variable to my custom function and obtain value from defined row number and column name. At first, I tried to follow the sample code from TC User Guide: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/reference/program-objects/tablevariable/index.html But the sample fails at Iterator.Reset(); line with "cannot read property" error... But the problem seems to be at previous line MyIterator = MyVar.Iterator; which does not return Iterator object, although the MyVar successfully loads Table variable "steps". I also renamed the Iterator variable to MyIterator, just to make sure it does not interfere with Iterator property, but no luck either. Does anyone have an idea what's wrong? Is there something missing, the sample code is obsolete or I found a bug? Thank you in advance. BTW, is there a way to get the value from table variable via column name/row index?How to keep date from excel in the same format
I am currently setting a date in excel and extracting that date to be used as a variable. I need the variable to be displayed in the format DD/MM/YY so in excel I have formatted the cell so it displays that way e.g. 06/02/24. However when testcomplete gets the data from the excel cell it sets the variable in the format DD/MM/YYYY e.g. 06/02/2024 How can I get it to keep the data exactly how it's being displayed in excel? Thanks
