TestComplete components
-
TestComplete Platform provides a test IDE with basic components for automated testing and test recording that are applicable to any application type. It supports black-box and image-based testing of Windows applications. In other words, using it you can create (record) and run tests that send keystrokes, clicks (with coordinates) and other mouse events to application windows and controls.
-
Technology Modules that extend the Platform to allow testing of applications created by using specific technologies: Desktop, Web, and Mobile.
The Desktop, Web and Mobile modules give your tests access to internal objects, methods and properties of appropriate tested applications and provide specific support for application windows and controls. In other words, they let you create powerful and flexible tests.
Note: The term module is used here to refer to a part of the product rather than to a file or library on a disk.
You can find more information on features provided by each module on our website:

The Intelligent Quality add-on allows creating tests by using advanced testing techniques. Currently, it includes support for:
-
Optical Character Recognition - You can use it to simulate user actions on applications and controls recognized by their text content.
-
PDF to Text - You can use it to get and validate text content of PDF files.
-
Self-Healing Tests - You can use them to configure TestComplete to “heal” the "Object does not exist" errors automatically at runtime.
-
Web Audits checkpoint - You can use it to estimate the quality of your tested web application (for example, its performance or accessibility).
