Project suite - Global recordings
Consider the following scenario: -A base solution, created with various recording that can be re-used by other solutions. Let's take an example, Login recording for example. -A solution C, which has a project that already uses some reference recordings, like the Login Recording from the base solution. When you create another project in solution C and want to re-use the already referenced Login Recording of the project that was there initially, for the new test plan for the newly created project this is not possible when you drag and try to drop the Login recording into the new test plan. TestComplete wouldn't allow it. Now you have to add reference the same Login recording from the base solution again in your new project, whilst it is already referenced in the project that was there before. Hence you have now two times the same recording from the base solution referenced for different projects in your solution. I would go for something like project suite referenced recordings, which are only referenced one time, and can be re-used by different projects/testplans in your solution without the need to add the same recording each time for every project in your solution.
Need Headless option for uploading the file from File explorer by clicking upload button in the UI.
By clicking upload button in the UI, it will open the file explorer and by giving the path of the file and select the file and click open via headless mode should be required. Kindly look into it and provide the valid solution.Referenced recordings overview
In TestComplete, you can reference recording/import recordings from other solution. Would be handy to have some mechanism in place where you have an overview from which solution these referenced recordings originate from. Currently only the option, show in file explorer is shown.
Add support for testing in multiple instances of the same desktop app
According to the support team there is currently no way to test in multiple instances of the same application. For example, consider a test where you launch multiple instances of Visual Studio and start debugging an application in each instance. If you try to record this test, it records all the operations as if there is once instance of Visual Studio - there is no way to differentiate between them. So when you play the test back, it chooses one instance and tries to execute all operations in that one instance, which fails. In order to automate this test case you would need to be able to specify "In instance 0, do this" and "In instance 1, do that".
testcomplete feature Intelligent Quality Add Ons
Is there a way of making testcomplete to recognize objects without using the Intelligent Quality Add Ons. Scenario: I screen recording a step where it need to click a button right lets say the object name is Aliases.mainwindow.button. when i re-run the script it does recognize the button anymore and i dont know why but I check again the button it changes to Aliases.mainwindow2.button now. With the Intelligent Quality Add Ons feature it works, but that feature is expensive. Is there a way i can work without using that feature, any module or method i can use.

Good afternoon TestComplete community, I'm working with a development team where we're having trouble combining both codes. On a machine running Windows 10, it captures the object in a very different way from how it does on my machine with Windows 11. I need help. Thank you very muchHELP!!!TestComplete not able to recognize the TreeView for a Desktop Application.
Hello All, I am recently using TestComplete to automate some manual work in my desktop application. Recently i am facing issue when trying to record a dockable window having a tree of folders and components. I have attached the figures of the dockable window for reference. I just need TestComplete to recognize the tree view of the dockable window so that i can customize the scripts for opening the corresponding components in the dockable window.My current sripts are just having mouse click command when selecting the items on the tree. However , in the same application, test complete can recognize tree views in other layout section but not in the dockable section. Can anyone of the experts help how i can get the tree view of this dockable window and also i am adding pictures of the scripts and object browser of the window. I couldnt located any tree view or click item methods in the object browswer. Appreciate if anyone can help me on how to proceed.
