The code created in tutorials are part of the AQAScriptExtensions.tcx file that is distributed with TestComplete. You can find it in the <TestComplete>\Bin\Extensions\ScriptExtensions folder. The AQAScriptExtensions package contains several extensions. The following files relate to our tutorial:

  • clcCode.js - Script unit.
  • clc-icon.bmp - The image of toolbar items.
  • ctcForm.aqfrm - The form that is displayed by the extension’s code.
  • description.xml - Describes the extension.

We will also use the AQAScriptExtensions.chm file that is located in the <TestComplete>\Bin\Extensions\ScriptExtensions folder.
