Using the Create New Project wizard you can create a new project for an existing or new project suite. On the Android Tested Applications page of the wizard, you can add Android application packages (.apk) to the project’s list of tested applications. This will allow you to easily install and launch applications on your Android device from your tests and from the TestComplete IDE.
| Note: | Information about the tested application is desirable, but it is not required for project creation. So, you can finish the project creation and add the needed tested applications any time later. See Adding Tested Applications. |
List of tested applications
The page displays a list of tested Android application packages and has the following columns:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Autorun | If it is selected, TestComplete automatically launches the application on the connected Android device each time you start recording a test. |
| Name | The name that will be used to address the application in tests (in the Run TestedApp keyword test operation or the TestedApps.Name.Run() scripting method). |
| APK File Name | The fully-qualified path of the Android application package (.apk) on the local computer or in a network share. |
