CEF objects are not recognized when running from Test Execute
Did anyone encounter issues when running apps developed using Chromium Browsers (CEF Window) ? The test is passing 100% of time when running with Test Complete 14.91 but they fail when running with Test Execute 14.91. I checked and the object is slightly different - it looks like the parameter for tested app is missing the CEF parameter described here https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-Questions/Cannot-recognize-objects-inside-CEF-window/m-p/225503#M99775 The object on the left is captured when testi is launched from test execute while on the right is from test complete. I checked all the possible things but I am running out of ideas.Re: Cannot recognize objects inside CEF window
We figured out that the CefHook applied to the launcher process doesn't apply to the main application process once it's started from the launcher. To work around this, we added the main application process to the TestedApps collection and specified there all the needed parameters along with the -injectCefHook parameter, to start this process separately. After that, the CEF part of the application was correctly recognized by TestComplete, and the Object Spy tool was able to catch individual Cef elements. To run the Tested Application from the script, just use the TestedApps.AppName.Run() command (https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/tested-apps/running.html)
