POWERBUILDER & TESTCOMPLETE
Just wondering is there a workaround with the MSAA (pbdw*) to accommodate Powerbuilder 2019 & 2022. We migrated to 2019 and I remapped all of the datawindows in TestComplete so it would be recognized during runtime. Again, we migrated to 2022 and I'm to the same issue. I know about the supported version... Supported PowerBuilder Versions With TestComplete, you can create and run tests for applications created with PowerBuilder Classic version 12.0, 12.5, 12.5.2 and 12.6. I saw other posts with similar questions regarding the same issue. Support ticket created Thanks 🙃
NameMapping issues after IF Object statement returns false?
I submit a ticket through support already, but has anyone else seen an issue in 15.72 and 15.73 where a web test will fail with an "Unable to find the following object when executing the Click command:" error immediately following an IF Object statement that returns false? I am seeing this issue on two separate web test suites. If I use debugging to pause the test on the failing line, then right-click and "Highlight on screen" then continue, the test will work. If I just pause, then continue it will still fail. I moved that item above the IF Object statement and it works, but now the next one after the IF fails. In this image, the green item fails when by the pink item, but works when I moved it above the IF. Now the pink one fails. If I go back to 15.71, this does not happen.TestComplete crashed the Test App when trying to add property of popuproot object
I have a dropdown, for which I need to add datacontext.Name property in the namemapping for combobox item, when trying to add this property from Edit Namemapping item, as soon as I click on the < button, to move property, the Test App hangs and finally crashes And I am never able to make it work. Any help on how to handle it would be highly appreciated.Use variable inside other vars default value
My Base URL has been changing a few times, Going over every item inside the namemapping to change the IP address to the website takes a while. So I want to make my BaseURL inside the namemapping a variable. To do this I found it's not possible to concat inside the namemapping ^ This doesn't work. Then I thought lets just a var for each of the programs. However I quickly found out that works for the entire run but not when running individual tests because those vars don't get set. Is there any way to set the Default value with a variable and concat the appropriate link to it? This is my current namemapping: I want to set it like this or something similar: Using the vars with a default value to also be able to run each test individually for debugging.
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?
How to simplify process of embedded module into two applications
I have a module would be embedded into two applications, app_A and app_B. app_A name mapping : NameMapping.Sys.app_A.MainForm.tableLayoutPanel.toolBarPanel app_B name mapping : NameMapping.Sys.app_B.MainForm.tableLayoutPanel.toolBarPanel How cloud I implement current auto testcases from app_A to app_B? Should I build a brand new name mapping for app_B? Is there other solution to simplify this process? Thanks for replyhow to get Object.Name without triggering element search
Hi guys, I know that this topic may sound a bit weird, but I have a very good reasons for it :) Here is my situation... I have a mapped element, containing an xpath, which I need to pass to a function as a parameter. The xpath alone, may not find an element! This is a critical point of my problem! The xpath is supposed to be used as a parameter in FindElements method. And because FindElements parameter requires xpath, I first need to extract the xpath from the mapped element. BTW, of course, I know that I can pass the xpath directly as a parameter. But I want all my xpaths stored in Name Mapping and not here or there in keyword/script modules. Therefore, I want to pass either mapped object or string value, representing the mapped/alias object. The problem is, that if the mapped element is used directly, as a parameter of function, during runtime, it always triggers the element search. But as I mentioned above, the xpath alone cannot find the element! So I decided to assign the mapped element via string constant (to avoid the search of element) and then convert the string back to object using Eval function. Eval correctly converts the string to object, but then, after calling Name property, it again tries to search the mapped element in UI, which, of course fails, not to mention takes long time. So, is there a way, how to get the xpath of a mapped element, without triggering element search? Thanks.
Clone Name Repo
Hi. I want to clone a name repository from one project suite to another and I want to clone keyword tests from one project suite to another. Then I want to go into cloned Project suite and change three characters in the url of objects with use of a wildcard ? Or *. Is that possible? TestComplete 15.x.x -todd2Warning messages in the test run log for improve performance
Hello, Recently I have updated all my nameMapping to use unique identifiers in the XPath and deleted all others that TC saved when recorded. So tipically I have only one selector for each object or element. When I ran the test it gave me the following warning almost for all the objects. You can improve the performance of the object search in the test. The NameMapping.​Sys.​browser.​pageAuth.​login_SignIn_Btn object can be found faster if you make //input[@type="submit"] the first selector in its selector list. And in the nameMapping for this object I see only one selector as I mentioned above. Still not sure why its throwing warning messages. Even when I click on Improve performance button in the log it just added an Empty selector, and even with that when I rerun the test it gave same message. One another thing is that the Extended Find column doesn't have any checkboxes. Is there something I missed in the settings or somewhere else TIA
