Description
A tested application can be run in RunAs mode. In this mode, TestComplete launches the tested application under a user account that differs from the account that TestComplete is running under. The UserName
property specifies the user account that will be used for the run. TestComplete will use this property only if the RunAs run mode is chosen for the application.
The UserName
property is the same as the User name value specified for the application in the Tested Applications editor.
Declaration
TestedAppRunAsParamsObj.UserName
Read-Write Property | String |
TestedAppRunAsParamsObj | An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to a TestedAppRunAsParams object |
Applies To
The property is applied to the following object:
Property Value
A string that specifies the desired user account.
Note: | Specify an account that has a password. TestComplete will not launch the tested application under an account that does not have a password. |
Remarks
If you assign a value to this property, TestComplete will treat your project as modified. So, you will need to save or cancel changes when closing the project. The specified value will be displayed in the TestedApps editor.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to modify the tested application’s parameters in script:
JavaScript, JScript
{
var TestApp, Params, RunAsParams;
TestApp = TestedApps.Items("SampleApp");
// Obtains the tested application's parameters
Params = TestApp.Params;
// Obtains the parameters of the RunAs mode
RunAsParams = Params.RunAsParams;
// Modifies the parameters of the RunAs mode:
// Specifies a domain for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.Domain = "CompanyDomain";
// Specifies the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.UserName = "jsmith";
// Specifies a password for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.Password = "jsmithpswrd";
// Applies the modified parameters and activates the RunAs mode
RunAsParams.Activate();
// Launches the tested application in the RunAs mode under the specified user account
TestApp.Run();
}
Python
def Test():
TestApp = TestedApps.Items["SampleApp"]
# Obtains the tested application's parameters
Params = TestApp.Params
# Obtains the parameters of the RunAs mode
RunAsParams = Params.RunAsParams
# Modifies the parameters of the RunAs mode:
# Specifies a domain for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.Domain = "CompanyDomain"
# Specifies the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.UserName = "jsmith"
# Specifies a password for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.Password = "jsmithpswrd"
# Applies the modified parameters and activates the RunAs mode
RunAsParams.Activate()
# Launches the tested application in the RunAs mode under the specified user account
TestApp.Run()
VBScript
Dim TestApp, Params, RunAsParams
Set TestApp = TestedApps.Items("SampleApp")
' Obtains the tested application's parameters
Set Params = TestApp.Params
' Obtains the parameters of the RunAs mode
Set RunAsParams = Params.RunAsParams
' Modifies the parameters of the RunAs mode:

' Specifies the user account under which the application will be run

' Specifies a password for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.Password = "jsmithpswrd"
' Applies the modified parameters and activates the RunAs mode
RunAsParams.Activate
' Launches the tested application in the RunAs mode under the specified user account
TestApp.Run
End Sub
DelphiScript
var TestApp, Params, RunAsParams;
begin
TestApp := TestedApps.Items('SampleApp');
// Obtains the tested application's parameters

// Obtains the parameters of the RunAs mode

// Specifies a password for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams.Password := 'jsmithpswrd';
// Applies the modified parameters and activates the RunAs mode
RunAsParams.Activate;
// Launches the tested application in the RunAs mode under the specified user account
TestApp.Run;
end;
C++Script, C#Script
{
var TestApp, Params, RunAsParams;
TestApp = TestedApps["Items"]("SampleApp");
// Obtains the tested application's parameters
Params = TestApp["Params"];
// Obtains the parameters of the RunAs mode

// Modifies the parameters of the RunAs mode:
// Specifies a domain for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams["Domain"] = "CompanyDomain";
// Specifies the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams["UserName"] = "jsmith";
// Specifies a password for the user account under which the application will be run
RunAsParams["Password"] = "jsmithpswrd";
// Applies the modified parameters and activates the RunAs mode
RunAsParams["Activate"]();
// Launches the tested application in the RunAs mode under the specified user account
