Developer Express Popup Menu Support

Applies to TestComplete 14.72, last modified on April 22, 2021

About Support

TestComplete can recognize Developer Express context menus in .NET applications. It provides special properties and methods that let you perform various operations over menu items. You can gain access to context menu’s subitems via the Item property.

Note for XtraForm users: When testing context menus in a .NET application that uses Developer Express XtraForm forms, the following problem may occur: If a test invokes a popup menu and selects a command from it several times in succession, the “Cannot obtain the popup menu” error may occur at a certain iteration during the test run. The problem is caused by the specifics of the XtraForm forms. If you encounter this problem, we recommend that the tested application’s developers contact Developer Express support for assistance in resolving the problem.

Supported Versions

Supported component versions: Developer Express XtraBars ver. 3.6.x, 6.1, 6.3, 7.x, 8.2 - 10.1, 11.2, 12.1 - 18.1.3, 19.1.3, 20.1.6.
