When you run TestExecute, it will minimize to an icon in the notification area (
). You can right-click the icon to open the TestExecute menu or use the CTRL+SHIFT+F10 shortcut. This menu is the main way of working with TestExecute other than command-line arguments.
The following table describes actions you can perform using menu items:
| Menu Item | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Open | Opens any TestComplete project or project suite in TestExecute. You can also double-click TestExecute’s icon in the notification area (), and then enter the location of the needed project (project suite) file. As each TestComplete project is always part of a project suite, loading a project to TestExecute means that you load the entire project suite of the project to TestExecute. |
||
| Run |
Runs the open project suite or one of its projects using TestExecute. To run the entire project suite, select Project Suite. To run an individual project of that project suite, choose the project name. You can also press the shortcut assigned to the Run command using the Run option (by default, it is Shift-F3). This command always runs the entire project suite even if you opened an individual project of the project suite.
