Description
The VirtualBrowser
object provides access to the mobile browser profiles defined in the project’s Virtual Browsers properties. Note that only the enabled profiles (those that are checked in the Virtual Browsers properties) can be accessed via the VirtualBrowsers
object.
The VirtualBrowsers
object lets you:
-
Iterate through all the enabled mobile browser profiles by using the
VirtualBrowsers.Item(browser_name)
andVirtualBrowsers.Count
properties. -
Launch the mobile browser emulator with a specific browser profile by using the
VirtualBrowsers.Item(browser_name).Run
method.Note: In keyword tests, use the Run Virtual Browser and Virtual Browser Loop operations instead. -
Check the currently used mobile browser profile by using the
VirtualBrowsers.CurrentBrowser
property.
Requirements
-
A license for the TestComplete Web module
-
The Web Testing and Chrome Support plugins (they are part of the Web module)
-
Google Chrome 85
If you have a TestComplete version earlier than 12.42, your version of the SmartBear Test Extension will be incompatible with newer versions of the Chrome web browser. To test web applications in Chrome 85, you will have to upgrade your TestComplete to some later version. We recommend using version 14.61.
If you use a later version of Google Chrome, check whether a patch is available for it.
For details, see Requirements for Mobile Web Testing Using Emulator.

Example
This line launches the iPhone 7 browser emulator and opens a URL:
JavaScript, JScript
VirtualBrowsers.Item("Apple iPhone 7").Run("http://m.smartbear.com");
Python
VirtualBrowsers.Item["Apple iPhone 7"].Run("http://m.smartbear.com");
VBScript
Call VirtualBrowsers.Item("Apple iPhone 7").Run("http://m.smartbear.com")
DelphiScript
VirtualBrowsers.Item['Apple iPhone 7'].Run('http://m.smartbear.com');
C++Script, C#Script
VirtualBrowsers["Item"]("Apple iPhone 7")["Run"]("http://m.smartbear.com");
This example outputs a list of all enabled mobile browser profiles to the test log:
JavaScript, JScript
function Test()
{
var browser, i;
Log.Message("Total number of enabled browser profiles: " + VirtualBrowsers.Count);
for (i = 0; i < VirtualBrowsers.Count; i++)
{
browser = VirtualBrowsers.Item(i);
Log.AppendFolder(browser.Name);
Log.Message("User agent: " + browser.UserAgent);
Log.Message("Browser screen size: " + browser.ScreenHeight + "x" + browser.ScreenWidth);
Log.PopLogFolder();
}
}
Python
def Test():
Log.Message("Total number of enabled browser profiles: " + str(VirtualBrowsers.Count))
for i in range (0, VirtualBrowsers.Count):
browser = VirtualBrowsers.Item[i]
Log.AppendFolder(browser.Name)
Log.Message("User agent: " + browser.UserAgent)
Log.Message("Browser screen size: " + str(browser.ScreenHeight) + "x" + str(browser.ScreenWidth))
Log.PopLogFolder()
VBScript
Sub Test
Dim browser, i
Call Log.Message("Total number of enabled browser profiles: " & VirtualBrowsers.Count)
For i = 0 To VirtualBrowsers.Count - 1
Set browser = VirtualBrowsers.Item(i)
Call Log.AppendFolder(browser.Name)
Call Log.Message("User agent: " & browser.UserAgent)
Call Log.Message("Browser screen size: " & browser.ScreenHeight & "x" & browser.ScreenWidth)
Call Log.PopLogFolder
Next
End Sub
DelphiScript
procedure Test;
var browser, i;
begin
Log.Message('Total number of enabled browser profiles: ' + VarToStr(VirtualBrowsers.Count));
for i := 0 to VirtualBrowsers.Count - 1 do
begin
browser := VirtualBrowsers.Item[i];
Log.AppendFolder(browser.Name);
Log.Message('User agent: ' + browser.UserAgent);
Log.Message('Browser screen size: ' + VarToStr(browser.ScreenHeight) + 'x' + VarToStr(browser.ScreenWidth));
Log.PopLogFolder;
end;
end;
C++Script, C#Script
function Test()
{
var browser, i;
Log["Message"]("Total number of enabled browser profiles: " + VirtualBrowsers["Count"]);
for (i = 0; i < VirtualBrowsers["Count"]; i++)
{
browser = VirtualBrowsers["Item"](i);
Log["AppendFolder"](browser["Name"]);
Log["Message"]("User agent: " + browser["UserAgent"]);
Log["Message"]("Browser screen size: " + browser["ScreenHeight"] + "x" + browser["ScreenWidth"]);
Log["PopLogFolder"]();
}
}
