A.: Yes. Use the OleObject property of the Sys object. Select it in the Object Browser panel, press the Params button and specify the class ID or program ID of the desired OLE object (For example, you may type Word.Application). TestComplete will try to connect to the specified object. If the object does not exist, TestComplete will create it. Once TestComplete has connected to the object, it will display the ellipsis button in the Property value column.

There isn't a good way to do this yet, as of version 0.96. There is a bad way: You can select all the objects you want to change, group them, then edit properties of the group. This will work, but has two drawbacks: 1) You will set *all* settable properties to the same value, so if you want to change the line width, but have different color objects, they will end up with the same color. 2) Any connections out of the group will be disconnected from their objects.

A.: Yes. The application under test must be compiled as an Open Application. Then you can call the NNNObject or WaitNNNObject methods of the process or window objects. The actual name of method to be used depends on the programming language and the environment tool that you created your application with. Provides a scripting interface to an object of a .NET application created with Borland VCL.NET library.

A.: AQtime and TestComplete are different products that are aimed at specific goals. AQtime is a performance profiler and a memory and resource usage debugger, that is, you can use it to time the execution of application functions, find memory and resource leaks, track exceptions, etc. TestComplete is used for automated testing of applications.

A.: TestComplete includes two plug-ins that can be used for distributed testing: HTTP Load Testing and Network Suite. The HTTP Load Testing plug-in allows you to test client-server applications that communicate using HTTP or Secure HTTP (SHTTP). TestComplete can simulate up to 300 virtual users on each computer involved in testing. If you are interested in this approach, please read the "Testing Web Servers Using the HTTP Load Testing Plug-In" help topic.

A.: TestComplete does not have special support for PowerBuilder applications: it does not recognize controls inside data windows and it is not possible to make a PowerBuilder application an Open Application. You can only test these applications in black box mode.

There are many useful properties for text objects in Reports. Here are some of the most commonly used : Go to the 'Properties' Tab of the Inspector and you will see Categories (if you are in Category View)

To add a condition to a property of an object, right-click on the property and select "Add Condition ...". The "Add - Edit Condition" dialog will appear that allows you to add a condition to the property. Conditions are only supported on a subset of the properties. No. The current version of Scriptura does not support this function. Properties can only be specified on a per-object basis. Scriptura has no 'direct' support for mathematical calculations, i.e.

A: You'll notice that the hardbox around things like houses just doesn't do the job. Hardboxes have to be rectangular, and things like houses are too complex for this to work. There are at least three methods to "fill in" the hardness around a house. It's probably best to set its hardness type to 1 (not hard) and totally draw the hardness yourself as explained below. I use a combination of the first two usually.

Answer: There are about 500 published independent research studies prepared by scientists and doctors on the miraculous healing agent found in the Aloe Vera Plant. This is far more studies than one would find on the safety and effectiveness of any drug or other natural substance available. The only accurate explanatory answer is that God created this healing molecule (A.M.P.

I'm sorry, but that's correct. OLE-object, which can be inserted into notes since version 3.5, are a beautiful thing, but they need much space - in memory and on disk. Try not to embedd the objects but to link them.

Yes, you are free to discover every part of the continent at the time you want. There are no instances like the "Valley of the Mines" or "Jharkendar", which were accessible only if it was intended by the plot. But the strength of monsters and enemies may be a natural barrier for weaker characters.

From the Home page, you can choose a state and click [Search] and you will be taken to the Search for Properties page. From any other page, you can click on "Search for Properties" located at the top of the page. Within the Search for Properties page, you can search for available property listings. A state must be selected. Other search fields are available to help you find the properties you are most interested in.

A8: There is a flex-property made specially for storing user data - TFlexControl.UserData. Its content is identical to a section of an ini-file, and its values are stored in the format of "property_name=value". Here is how you can access custom properties: If the value with the 'Result' name was missing in UserData, it will be created automatically.

object is an element which posses a constant position in space. This position cannot be changed during this object life time (we can only simulate this process, for example, by creating a more or less identical clone). Once an object is created (and even before its real creation) it gets some coordinate in space which is its reference representing this object in other parts of the space.

A.: With TestComplete, you can get access to web page elements and emulate mouse and keyboard actions over web pages displayed in the following browsers: TestComplete provides access to web pages and their elements displayed in WebBrowser controls that reside in any application. In other words, TestComplete supports any browser created on the base of the WebBrowser control. TestComplete 5 provides limited support for Netscape Navigator ver. 8.1.

A.: Yes, TestComplete works with custom controls by simulating mouse clicks and key presses on any window. To work with Win32 controls, TestComplete uses special program objects - Win32Toolbar, Win32Menu, and so on. It is recommended to map the class names of custom controls to these objects. This allows you to call specific methods and properties for custom controls.

A.: Its possible that you are testing a non-Open Application. When you test a "closed" application, TestComplete needs to "know" which window it should address with mouse clicks and key presses. Some controls like TLabel and TImage in Delphi and C++Builder, or Label and Image in Visual Basic, are non-window controls. They are drawn on the canvas of the form. To check whether the control is windowed or not, open the Object Browser.

A.: With TestComplete you can test any Windows application through the application's UI. Script routines simulate mouse movements, clicks, key presses and other user actions through Windows messages. This way of testing does not depend on any compiler. It is called functional or "black box" testing. For Web pages and for applications created with Delphi, C++Builder, Visual Basic, Visual C++, Java and .

A.: Support for Java and .NET applications is provided by special TestComplete plug-ins: Java Client and .NET Client. They are included in both the Standard and Enterprise versions of TestComplete 3.xx. Everything mentioned in this FAQ and the TestComplete help system is true for Java and .NET testing. The Java Client plug-in provides specific files that allow you to create and test Java Open Applications.

A.: Both Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 and Visual Studio 2005 let you create, run and debug Windows CE applications targeting the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework. For further reference, we will call them Windows CE .NET applications. To run these applications under a Win32 platform, you can either use the Windows CE device emulator (which is built into Visual Studio), or run the application as a Win32 application (provided that you have Microsoft .NET Framework v. 1.0.

A.: Yes, you can record and run TestComplete scripts that simulate user actions with grid controls. To learn more about this, see Working With Grids in TestComplete 3 or Grid Samples for TestComplete 4. A.: Yes, TestComplete can simulate mouse clicks, key presses, and so on, within the console window. However, these applications cannot be tested as Open Applications.

A.: The trial version of TestComplete includes all the features available in the registered version, with a 2 unit/500 line script code limit. Note that TestComplete's trial version is an Enterprise version. Therefore, the difference between TestComplete trial and TestComplete Standard is significant.

A.: You can obtain the exception call stack: Compile your application with the debugger information and run it under TestComplete using the DbgServices object. If an exception occurs, TestComplete will post the call stack to the log. See also the "DbgServices Object" help topic and try the <TestComplete>\Samples\Scripts\DbgServices example.

A.: TestComplete has special support for a number of Win32 controls and it uses object names instead of coordinates when working with some of them. The tool uses specific methods and properties to work with standard Win32 controls. If you open the "Working With Win32 Controls" help topic, you will see a list of supported Win32 objects.

A.: This can happen when you place the mouse cursor over an item of a tree view or some other Windows control and a tool tip is displayed. The tool tip actually covers the item you are clicking. As a result, TestComplete cannot record a click since you are actually clicking on the tool tip. To work around this problem, do any of the following: Place the mouse cursor over the needed item, wait until the tool tip disappears, then click the item. The click will be recorded.
