.NET Support Plugins
Core .NET Plugins
TestComplete support for testing .NET applications is provided by the following plugins:
.NET Application Support
Open Applications
Desktop Testing
These plugins are installed and enabled automatically. Therefore, you can test most .NET applications right out-of-box, without any additional configuration.
You can check to see if these plugins are active by selecting File | Install Extensions from the TestComplete main menu. If one of these plugins is not available, you need to run the TestComplete installation in the Repair mode. For more information about changing installed TestComplete features, see Installing Extensions.
To use these plugins, you must have a license for TestComplete Desktop module.
Plugins for .NET Controls Automation
The TestComplete Desktop module also includes pre-installed plugins for automated testing of standard and third-party .NET controls. These plugins provide test objects, methods and properties for automating various operations on .NET controls, getting their contents, state and so on.
Just like core support plugins, these plugins are also installed and enabled automatically.
You can verify that these plugins are active using the File | Install Extensions dialog. To re-install the plugins, run the TestComplete installation in the Repair mode.
