Automation using Test Complete

Test Complete is an wonderful tool for test automation.This is the first test automation tool that I've used and It was easy for me to learn the tool . My work started with recording a simple calculator program using TC and within 1 year I am into a project where I was able to automate almost 60% of the application. Hats Off to TC again...


TC 7.5 Vs TC 6.52

I tested the scripts that were developed using TC 6.52 using TC 7.5 and my feedback regarding TC 7.5 is ,
  • Its pretty fast when comparead to other version of TC". There was no change required in the script.I did a slight modification in the default project properties. I just increased the "Auto-wait TimeOut" property from default to 15000 ms.All my scripts works fine in TC 7.5.
  • The Namemapping futures worked fine.
  • The DDT.Exceldriver in TC 7.5 needs the Excel file name Extension (.xls) attached to the file,(D:\TCEval.xls) which was not needed in TC 6.52 (D:\TCEval)
  • The "Display Object properties window" to show the properties , its little slower than TC 6.52.
