How to Create a New Project

→ Click File->New->Project->Generic Windows Application->Next ->Next->JScript->Next->Finish

Add Application on the TestedApps

→Double click on Tested Apps

→Right click on the TestedApps area. Select Add application and choose your exe file

Create or Rename the Script File

→Right Click Add -> New Item

Open PrcView Application

//Step_1:Launch PrcView application

function test()

{

TestedApps.PrcView.Run();

}

Right click on the work area and click Run application. The exe file should start and a report will be created with pass/failed output

The Launched Application

Show All Processes in the Process List

//Step_2:Click on "Show all processes in the Process list" checkbox from Tools-->Options

//Step_2_1:Click on the Tool button

var principalMenu=Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PrcView", "Process Viewer", 1).MainMenu;

principalMenu.Click("Tools");

//Step_2_2:Click on the Options button

var toolButton=principalMenu.Items("Tools");

toolButton.SubMenu.Click("Options...");

//Step_2_3:Set to true the "Show all processes in the Process list" checkbox if is false

Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Application Options", 1).Window("Button", "Show all processes in the Process list", 13).wState=1;

//Step_2_4:Click on the Ok button

var okButton=Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Application Options", 1).Window("Button", "OK", 1);

okButton.Click(1,1);

Show All Processes in the Process List

Exercise

//Step_2_5:Exercise - Check the "Thread Count" checkbox from Tools-->Select columns and check the Thread Count checkbox

Number of Processes

//Step_3:Get the number of processes

//Step_3_1: Count the number of processes and log them

var count = Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PrcView", "Process Viewer", 1).Window("SysListView32", "", 1).wItemCount;

Log.Message(count);

//Step_3_2: Verify if the PrcView is in the list

var prcViewProcess = Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PrcView", "Process Viewer", 1).Window("SysListView32", "", 1).wItem("PrcView.exe", 0)

for(i=0;i<count;i++)

{

var checkProcess =Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PrcView", "Process Viewer", 1).Window("SysListView32", "", 1).wItem(i, 0)

if(prcViewProcess==checkProcess)

Log.Message("The process PrcView was found"+ prcViewProcess);

}

Exercise

// Step_3_3:Exercise - Verify if the "TestComplete.exe" process is in the list

Verify Description of a Process

// Step_4: Verify description of a process

// Step_4_1:Open the View->Module Usage form

principalMenu.Click("View|Module Usage");

var gridModule = Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Modules", 1).Window("SysListView32", "List1", 1);

// Step_4_2:Double click on the "7z.DLL" process

gridModule.DblClickItem("ADVAPI32.dll", 0);

// Step_4_3: Get the actual name of a company and verify if it is as the expected one

var expectedDescription="Advanced Windows 32 Base API";

var actualDescription=Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Version", 1).Window("Static", "Advanced Windows 32 Base API", 18).WndCaption;

equals(actualDescription,expectedDescription, "The value should be Advanced Windows 32 Base API, but is" +actualDescription);

// Step_4_4:Close the Version form

var closeButtonForVersion = Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Version", 1).SystemMenu

closeButtonForVersion.Click("Close");

// Step_4_5:Close the Modules form

closeButtonModules=Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Modules", 1).SystemMenu;

closeButtonModules.Click("Close");

Verify Description of a Process

Assert Function

//Assert function - for a text

function equals (actualDescription,expectedDescription,error_message)

{

if(actualDescription!=expectedDescription)

Log.Error(error_message);

}

Exercise

// Step_4_6: Exercise - Verify Product Version for the next module from the list

//...

Number of Applications

//Step_5: Verify the number of opened applications

//Step_5_1: Count the launched applications

principalMenu.Click("View|Applications");

var noOfOpenedApplications =Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Applications", 1).Window("SysListView32", "", 1).wItemCount

//Step_5_2: Close the Applications form

var closeButtonForApplication=Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Applications", 1).SystemMenu;

closeButtonForApplication.Click("Close");

//Step_5_3:Launch a new application (e.g. Calc.exe)

TestedApps.calc.Run();

//Step_5_4:Count once again the launched applications

principalMenu.Click("View|Applications");

var increaseNoOfOpenedApplications =Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Applications", 1).Window("SysListView32", "", 1).wItemCount

//Step_5_5: Verify if the number of opened application was increased after launching "Calc.exe"

compareNoOfProcesses(noOfOpenedApplications,increaseNoOfOpenedApplications,"No of processed were not increased");

//Step_5_6: Close the Applications form

var closeButtonForApplication=Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("PVIEW95DLG", "Applications", 1).SystemMenu;

closeButtonForApplication.Click("Close");

Number of Applications

Assert Function

//Assert function - for processes

functioncompareNoOfProcesses(noOfOpenedApplications,increaseNoOfOpenedApplications,error_message)

{

if (noOfOpenedApplications>=increaseNoOfOpenedApplications)

Log.Error(error_message);

}

Exercise

//Step_5_7: Exercise - Launch new application and verify that the number of processes was increased by one

//...

Save the Process List

//Step_6: Save the process list into a file using File --> Save As

//Step_6_1:Click on File --> Save As

principalMenu.Click("File|Save as...");

//Step_6_2: Enter the name of file

var nameofFile=Aliases.PrcView.Window("#32770", "Save As", 1).Window("DUIViewWndClassName", "", 1).Window("DirectUIHWND", "", 1).Window("FloatNotifySink", "", 1).Window("ComboBox", "", 1)

nameofFile.Keys("ISTC_File");

//Step_6_2:Click on the Save button

var saveButton = Sys.Process("PrcView").Window("#32770", "Save As", 1).Window("Button", "&Save", 1)

saveButton.Click(1,1);

Log.Message("The ISTC file was saved");

principalMenu["Click"]("File|Exit");
