Description

The Path property returns the full path to the folder that contains the file of the current TestComplete project (.mds).

Declaration

Project.Path

Read-Only Property

String

Applies To

The property is applied to the following object:

Project

Property Value

A string that represents the path to the folder that contains the current project in TestComplete. The string holds the trailing slash character (\).

Remarks

When converting TestComplete 3 projects to the version 4 format, TestComplete automatically changes the Options.Project.Directory statement to Project.Path. Note that if your TestComplete 3 scripts used the Options.Project.Directory property to specify a path to files relative to your project, the converted code will return invalid file paths. This happens because TestComplete changes the project files location and reorganizes folders during the conversion.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to obtain the path to the folder that stores the current project and export compressed results of the current test to that folder.

JavaScript, JScript

function ProjectSample()
{
  var Path;

  // Obtains the path to the current project
  Path = Project.Path;

  Path = Path + "CompressedResults\\" + aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(aqDateTime.Now(), "%m_%d_%Y_%H_%M_%S");
  // Compresses the current test results
  if (slPacker.PackCurrentTest(Path))
    Log.Message("Test results have been compressed successfully");
  …

}

Python

def ProjectSample():
  # Obtains the path to the current project 
  Path = Project.Path
  Path = Path + "CompressedResults\\" + aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(aqDateTime.Now(), "%m_%d_%Y_%H_%M_%S")
  # Compresses the current test results 
  if slPacker.PackCurrentTest(Path):
    Log.Message("Test results have been compressed successfully")

VBScript

Sub ProjectSample

  Dim Path

  ' Obtains the path to the current project
  Path = Project.Path

  Path = Path + "CompressedResults\" + aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(aqDateTime.Now, "%m_%d_%Y_%H_%M_%S")
  ' Compresses the current test results
  If slPacker.PackCurrentTest(Path) Then
    Log.Message "Test results have been compressed successfully"
  End If
  …

End Sub

DelphiScript

procedure ProjectSample();
var Path;

begin
  // Obtains the path to the current project
  Path := Project.Path;

  Path := Path + 'CompressedResults\' + aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(aqDateTime.Now, '%m_%d_%Y_%H_%M_%S');
  // Compresses the current test results
  if slPacker.PackCurrentTest(Path) then
    Log.Message('Test results have been compressed successfully');
  …

end;
