Update Login Credentials

Applies to TestComplete 14.40, last modified on April 22, 2021

Whenever you connect to CucumberStudio from TestComplete, the latter asks you to specify your CucumberStudio account and password, or CucumberStudio API credentials (if you connect to it by using a GitHub or Google account). You can command TestComplete to remember these values so that it doesn’t ask for them later. TestComplete stores these values in the operating system’s Credential Manager. You may want to change them or remove from your computer. The way you do this depend on the credentials’ type.

CucumberStudio username and password

  1. Open the operating system’s Control Panel. The way you do this depends on the operating system you use.

  2. In the Control Panel, find and open the Credential Manager.

  3. In the Manager window, select Windows Credentials.

  4. On the subsequent page, find CucumberStudio.

  5. Expand the CucumberStudio section, click Edit to update the stored username and password, or

    click Remove to delete CucumberStudio login credentials from your computer.

To change API credentials

CucumberStudio API credentials remain valid for some time, typically, for a year. When they expire, TestComplete will ask you to specify new credentials. There is no need to update these values in the Credential Manager of your operating system.

If you need to change your credentials before they expire, follow the steps below (you cannot change them in the Credential Manager):

  1. Open the Credential Manager on your computer and remove your CucumberStudio API credentials. See the detailed description above.

  2. In your browser, log in to CucumberStudio, go to your profile settings and generate new API credentials there. See Login With GitHub or Google Credentials for details.

  3. In TestComplete, synchronize your project and the bound CucumberStudio project. To do this, for example, right-click your project in the Project Explorer and select Update from CucumberStudio from the context menu. TestComplete will display a dialog box asking you to specify credentials to connect to CucumberStudio. Enter the new API credentials in the dialog.
