Description
In TestComplete, you can create tests that will run in device clouds rather than on your local workstation. For such tests, you can orchestrate parallel runs. To do this, you can use methods of the Parallel object or manage the tests by using the project’s execution plan.
Requirements
-
You can use the
Parallelobject to orchestrate parallel runs only of the following tests:The
Parallelobject does not support other test types, for instance, legacy mobile tests (that run on physical devices connected to TestComplete locally), or classic web tests. For the full list of supported features, see Running Tests in Parallel. -
Tests that the
Parallelobject will run must be prepared for parallel runs:

Example
The example below shows how to use the Parallel.RunTests method to control parallel test runs. The method runs MyTest1 and MyTest2 in parallel.
JavaScript, JScript
function Main()
{
// Set a list of tests to run in parallel
var tests = ['Script|Unit1|MyTest1', 'Script|Unit1|MyTest2'];
// Run tests in parallel
Parallel.RunTests(tests);
}
function MyTest1()
{
var url = "http://services.smartbear.com/samples/TestComplete15/smartstore/";
// Set the URL of the device cloud server
var server = "http://hub.crossbrowsertesting.com:80/wd/hub";
// Set an environment for the test to run
var capabilities = {
"platform": "Mac OSX 10.14",
"browserName": "Safari",
"version": "12",
"screenResolution": "1366x768"
};
// Launch a browser in the environment
Browsers.RemoteItem(server, JSON.stringify(capabilities)).Run(url);
var browser = Sys.Browser();
var page = browser.Page("*services.smartbear.com/samples/TestComplete*/smartstore/");
…
}
function MyTest2()
{
var url = "http://services.smartbear.com/samples/TestComplete15/smartstore/";
// Set the URL of the device cloud server
