SynchPoints Object

Applies to TestComplete 15.31, last modified on March 17, 2022
The Network Suite functionality is deprecated. We don’t recommend using it for distributed testing. Consider using a CI/CD system for managing distributed tests. See Migrating Distributed Tests to CI/CD Systems for details. In case you need to run web tests on multiple environments in parallel, you can also try using your project’s Execution Plan.

Description

The SynchPoints object allows you to manage synchronization points defined in the current project. To obtain the SynchPoints object from tests, use the NetworkSuite.SynchPoints property.

Example

The following example demonstrates how you can access the synchpoint collection from script and synchronize tests execution by using the desired synchpoint from this collection. The example uses the SynchPoint.WaitFor method to simultaneously start creating new files on different computers. Remember that this code must be added to all the projects that will create files.
