ProfilerName Property

Applies to TestComplete 15.45, last modified on December 01, 2022

Description

A tested application can be run in Profile mode. In this mode, TestComplete launches AQtime and then starts the application under AQtime. The ProfilerName property specifies the name of the AQtime profiler that will be used for profiling.

The ProfilerName property is the same as the Profiler value specified for the application in the Tested Applications editor.

Declaration

TestedAppProfileParamsObj.ProfilerName

Read-Write Property Integer
TestedAppProfileParamsObj An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to a TestedAppProfileParams object

Applies To

The property is applied to the following object:

TestedAppProfileParams

Property Value

A string specifying the desired profiler name.

Note: When setting the property value, specify the profiler name exactly as it is written in the Profilers box on AQtime’s Standard toolbar.

Remarks

If you assign a value to this property, TestComplete will treat your project as modified. So, you will need to save or cancel changes when closing the project. The specified value will be displayed in the TestedApps editor.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to modify the tested application’s parameters in script:

JavaScript, JScript

Copy Code

JavaScript, JScript

function Test()
{

  var testApp = TestedApps.Items("SampleApp");

  // Obtain the tested application's parameters
  var params = testApp.Params;
  // Obtain the Profile run mode's parameters
  var profileParams = params.ProfileParams;

  // Specify the AQtime version
  profileParams.AQtimeVersion = 8;

  // Specify that TestComplete will use an AQtime project to profile the tested application
  profileParams.UseProject = true;
  // Specify the path to the AQtime project that TestComplete will use
  profileParams.ProjectFileName = "D:\\Work Folder\\Sample.aqt";

  // Specify that TestComplete sets the AQtime run mode after profiling starts
  profileParams.ForceRunMode = true;
  // Specify the AQtime run mode during profiling
  profileParams.RunMode = "Normal";

  // Specify that TestComplete uses the profiler specified in the TestComplete project
  profileParams.OverrideProfiler = true;

  // Specify the name of the AQtime profiler that will be used to profile the application
  profileParams.ProfilerName = "Performance Profiler";

  // Apply the modified parameters and activate the Profile run mode
  profileParams.Activate();

  // Launch the tested application
  var AQtimeObj = testApp.Run();

  // Simulate user actions against the tested application
  // …

  // Wait until profiling is over and export the profiling results
  AQtimeObj.WaitAndExportResults("D:\\Work Folder\\SummaryResultsFile.xml", "D:\\Work Folder\\ResultsFile.xml");

}
