Many applications display data in tables and lists by using various grid controls, list views, list boxes or combo boxes. To verify the content of these controls in your automated tests, you can use table checkpoints. This video tutorial demonstrates how you can create table checkpoints in TestComplete and add them to your automated tests.
File checkpoints in TestComplete allow you to verify files, for example, they ensure that a file matches a baseline copy or that the correct information has been written to a file by your tested application. This video demonstrates how you can verify files by creating and using file checkpoints in your keyword-driven tests.
This video demonstrates how you can create and use parameters in automated keyword-driven tests. Parameters allow you to pass data into keyword-driven tests or between tests. By replacing hard-coded values in your automated keyword-driven tests with parameters, you can create more flexible and efficient tests that can be reused with multiple sets of data.
When designing automated tests, you may notice there is a sequence of test operations that need to be included in several automated tests or run multiple times in the same automated test. Rather than duplicating and maintaining these operations in each automated test or test parts that require them, you can save them into an individual automated test and then call this automated test from your other automated tests.
This video explains the user integration of TestComplete and Software planner. With the bridge between these two products, users are able to view automated test runs side by side with manual test runs.
It is often preferable to create smaller automated tests for different areas of the tested application rather than one large test for the whole application, because small, modular automated tests are easier to modify and maintain. This video shows how you can then organize your individual automated tests defined in your test project into a single batch run.
One way to verify that the tested application functions correctly is to check that the property values of objects in the application match the expected values. TestComplete allows you to perform this kind of check in automated tests by using property checkpoints. This video shows you how to add property checkpoints to keyword-driven tests and use them to verify property values of objects in web applications.
