Shelving Changes

Applies to TestComplete 15.62, last modified on March 19, 2024

If your project or project suite is stored in a Mercurial repository and you have uncommitted changes you want to store for a later use, you can shelve these changes (store them in a special patch in your repository until you need them) directly from TestComplete.

Note: You can shelve changes from TestComplete only if you use the TortoiseHg client to work with Mercurial from TestComplete.
  1. Select File > Source Control > Shelve from the TestComplete main menu.

    – or –

    Right-click your project suite in the Project Explorer and then click Source Control > Shelve.

    – or –

    Click Launch the Shelve Dialog on the Source Control toolbar (if the toolbar is hidden, right-click the toolbar area and then click Source Control).

  2. TestComplete will open the TortoiseHg client’s Shelve dialog.
