About Support

TestComplete can recognize Win32 Pager controls in Windows applications. It provides special properties and methods that let you retrieve the controls data and simulate user actions on the controls (see below).

Requirements

In order for TestComplete to be able to work with your controls as with Win32 Pager controls, the control’s class name must be specified in the Win32 Controls and Windows | Pager group of your project’s Object Mapping options. By default, this group contains the following items:

  • *SysPager*
  • *PageScroller*
Note: The asterisk (*) wildcards specify variable parts of class names.

You can also command the test engine to recognize custom controls as Win32 Pager controls. See below for information about this.

Recognizing Custom Controls

To command TestComplete to recognize your custom controls as Win32 Pager controls, open your project’s Object Mapping options and add the control’s class name to the Win32 Controls and Windows | Pager group. The class name is specified by the control’s WndClass property. You can get the property value in the Object Browser panel. You can also choose the needed control from screen. For detailed information, see Object Mapping. Once the control is mapped, it gets all the properties, methods and actions specific to the Win32 Pager control.

If the specified custom control does not fit the control’s type, then it may not properly respond to commands that TestComplete sends, so recording or playing back user actions over the tested control will cause errors.

Members

When testing Win32 Pager controls, you can use properties and methods specific to these controls, as well as properties and methods that TestComplete applies to tested objects, onscreen objects and window objects. For the full list of available properties and methods, see the following topics:
