TestComplete object not found errors

I am new to TestComplete.

I watched a couple of videos they have but when I tried the same thing it gives me error about not finding the objects. All I did was recorded going to a web app and logging into it.

Has anyone faced this kind of problem and if so any pointers to resolve this issue will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Use object browser to highlight any object. You can also script to check the Exists property before performing any action.

For objects which I am not sure would exists, I usually user Wait with timeout and then check the Exists property to avoid Object not found error.

The help system of TestComplete 8 contains a great topic describing all possible causes of the 'Object not found' issue and suggesting ways for debugging and solving them: Handling the 'Object Not Found' Errors.

There is no magic solution to such situations, other than investigating the situation to find out why the expected recognition criteria do not match the actual ones. There is a recording of a recent webinar about Name Mapping - it describes some situations when objects are not found, and gives some good advices on the possible solutions: http://www.automatedqa.com/products/testcomplete/screencasts/reliable-tests-for-dynamic-objects/

Anyway, you will need to make some investigations to determine the root cause of the situation before you can try applying some suggestions.

Good Luck.
