Testing web services with TestComplete is obsolete. We recommend that you use ReadyAPI, another SmartBear's automated testing tool for SOAP and REST web services.
If needed, you can run ReadyAPI tests from TestComplete.

Example

The code snippet below demonstrates how you can use the SetCertificate method to define the certificate.

JavaScript, JScript

function ServiceSertificate()
{
  var MyWebService, Crd, Certificate;

  // Obtain the tested web service
  MyWebService = WebServices.SampleWebService;

  // Call a web service Credentials property
  Crd = MyWebService.Credentials;

  // Obtain the client certificate object
  Certificate = Crd.ClientCertificate;

  // Defines the client certificate
  Certificate.SetCertificate(slLocalMachine, snMy, "CN = sample_subject_name.com");
}

Python

def ServiceCertificate():
  # Obtain the tested web service
  MyWebService = WebServices.SampleWebService
  # Call a web service Credentials property 
  Crd = MyWebService.Credentials
  # Obtain the client certificate object
  Certificate = Crd.ClientCertificate
  # Defines the client certificate
  Certificate.SetCertificate(slLocalMachine, snMy, "CN = sample_subject_name.com")

VBScript

Sub ServiceSertificate

  Dim MyWebService, Crd, Certificate

  ' Obtain the tested web service
  Set MyWebService = WebServices.SampleWebService

  ' Call a web service Credentials property
  Set Crd = MyWebService.Credentials

  ' Obtain the client certificate object
  Set Certificate = Crd.ClientCertificate

  ' Defines the client certificate
  Call Certificate.SetCertificate(slLocalMachine, snMy, "CN = sample_subject_name.com")

End Sub

DelphiScript

function ServiceSertificate();
var MyWebService, Crd, Certificate: OleVariant;
begin

  // Obtain the tested web service
  MyWebService := WebServices.SampleWebService;

  // Call a web service Credentials property
  Crd := MyWebService.Credentials;

  // Obtain the client certificate object
  Certificate := Crd.ClientCertificate;

  // Defines the client certificate
  Certificate.SetCertificate(slLocalMachine, snMy, 'CN = sample_subject_name.com');

end;
