What's new in this version:
Dark theme for TestComplete:
- TestComplete 15 includes one of its most requested features — the dark theme for the user interface
Web testing improvements:
- Seamless installation of the SmartBear Test extension in Edge. Similarly to installing the SmartBear Test Extension for Chrome, installing the extension for Edge Chromium is also seamless now. You no longer need to exit Edge during TestComplete (or TestExecute) installation to install or update the extension for this browser and you no longer need to enable the extension in this browser manually.
- Using optical character recognition in web tests running in parallel. Web tests that use optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects can now run in remote environments in parallel.
Support for the latest versions of web browsers:
- Chrome 94
- Edge Chromium 94
- Firefox 93
Mobile testing improvements:
- You can switch between testing sessions opened on mobile devices in the BitBar device cloud easier. The Mobile Screen window now shows not only the list of recently used and connected devices, but also the applications for which a testing session was opened on these devices
Other improvements:
- By default, the TestComplete installation package no longer includes the help file. TestComplete uses the online version of the documentation instead — whenever you press F1 in some panel or click “Help” in a dialog box, TestComplete opens pages of its online documentation on our website. The new approach will help you always get up-to-date documentation relevant to your current product version.

What's new in this version:
Mobile testing improvements:
- Automatic device replacement. The mobile tests to be run in the BitBar device cloud support a new configuration setting. You can use it to command the test engine to find a replacement device if the target device is not available for some reason. This way, your test will not fail but will run on another similar device.
- Support for iOS 14.7: If your mobile tests use the non-Appium mobile support, you can now create and run automated tests on this iOS version.
- The Device object has two new methods to check whether the virtual keyboard is visible or not, and to hide this keyboard, if needed
Web testing improvements:
- Easier update of CSS selectors. If your tested web application has been changed, you may need to update the XPath expressions and CSS selectors that the test engine uses to recognize web objects. Now, you can do this quickly by pointing to the needed object on the screen. TestComplete will replace the existing XPath expressions and CSS selectors with the actual values the target web object has.
- Using optical character recognition in web tests running in device clouds. Now, you can use optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects in web tests running in desktop web browsers in remote environments. This way, your tests can interact with web elements that TestComplete cannot recognize by other means. For instance, your tests can recognize the contents rendered by canvas elements and simulate user actions over them.
- New Electron support. This version of TestComplete introduces a new approach for supporting Electron applications — by using the Chrome DevTools Protocol. The new approach eliminates the limitations of the previously-used approach.
- That previously-used approach is still available, all your existing tests will remain valid. You can use it to create tests, though we’d recommend using the new approach.
- To make your existing tests support the new approach, all you need to do is to modify the way your tested Electron application starts. See About Testing Electron Applications With TestComplete. The way TestComplete recognizes objects in Electron applications and simulates user actions has not changed, therefore, no other modifications for your tests are needed.
- We’ve improved internal subsystems supporting the Microsoft Dynamics 365 applications. The tests have become more stable. Also, you can now record and play back hover actions and clicks on images correctly.
- Support for the latest versions of web browsers: Firefox 92, Chrome 93, Edge Chromium 93
Other improvements:
- We’ve improved the performance of test scripts that run from keyword tests, for example, by the Run Code Snippet operation
- We’ve also improved the product installer to eliminate issues that might occur during the installation if the reboot was required
- We have fixed several issues reported by our customers
Discontinued support:
- The Borland Database Engine developed by Embarcadero has been deprecated. Therefore, the support that TestComplete provides for the engine is deprecated as well. It will be removed in one of the future releases. We don’t recommend using it in your tests. To access databases, use Microsoft ADO.
- Support for earlier builds of iOS 13 has been removed from TestComplete. Now, TestComplete supports only iOS 13.6 and 13.7.
- Our records say that the GUI Explorer tool has been rarely used, so we have removed it from the product

What's new in this version:
Mobile testing improvements:
Better support for timeouts when working with devices in the BitBar cloud:
- TestComplete 14.91 introduces the New command timeout option that specifies the time that mobile devices will wait for TestComplete commands until disconnection. This option helps you ensure that your testing session closes automatically even if your test is terminated.
- The devices are no longer disconnected on timeout unexpectedly while you are exploring your tested application in the Object Browser or Object Spy
- Now, the test engine doesn’t terminate tests running in the BitBar cloud on timeout unless you set that timeout in the bitbar_testTimeout property in capabilities
- Support for iOS 14.6. If your mobile tests rely on the legacy (non-Appium) mobile support, you can now create and run automated tests on this iOS version.
Web testing improvements:
- New option – Latest version available – for selecting a Firefox or Chrome version for web tests running in the CrossBrowserTesting cloud. It helps you be sure that your tests run on the up-to-date browser version and frees you from updating your test settings every time a new browser version is released.
You can find it in the Generate Run Code dialog and in the Run Remote Browser or Remote Browser Loop operations in your keyword tests:
- Selecting the latest available version of a web browser
- Improved recording of mouse actions on the canvas web elements: now the recorder includes coordinate data into the recorded events. Previous versions of the product might skip coordinates in certain cases.
- Support for Firefox 89. You can now create and run tests on this web browser
Other improvements:
- We’ve improved internal algorithms for simulating user actions on third-party controls in systems with high DPI values (higher than 100%). This has made test runs even more stable on these systems.
- The scripting engine of TestComplete now uses Python version 3.8.10. This version includes fixes for several security issues reported in earlier Python versions.
- Also, TestComplete now uses Node.js version 10
- We have fixed several issues reported by our customers

What's new in this version:
Mobile testing improvements:
- You can orchestrate parallel runs of your mobile tests in the BitBar device cloud or on mobile devices controlled by a private Appium server easier, by using the Execution Plan editor of your TestComplete project.
- The Mobile Screen window of TestComplete now shows both the list of connected mobile devices and the list of recently used devices
- TestComplete now can capture images during parallel test runs on mobile devices managed by BitBar and local Appium. This can help explore the behavior of tested applications if a test fails.
- By default, capturing images during parallel test runs is disabled. Use the new Capture images during parallel test runs option to control this behavior and enable and disable capturing images when needed
- Support for iOS 14.5.1. If your mobile tests rely on the legacy (non-Appium) mobile support in TestComplete, you can now create and run automated tests on this iOS version
Web testing improvements:
- You can use project and project suite variables to specify the URL of a tested website when orchestrating your parallel web test runs in the Execution Plan editor.
- If you use the Remote Browser Loop operation to run your web tests in remote environments, now you can configure the operation to execute its child operation in one of the supported web browsers on a local computer. This may be helpful if you want to verify your web test in a local environment before running it in remote browsers or if you want to debug your web test. This is easier than modifying your entire loop to run it in a local browser.
- Support for Google Chrome 91
Microsoft Dynamics support:
- You can now create, record, and run automated tests for Microsoft Dynamics 365 applications accessed via web browsers. See Testing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Applications.
SAP GUI support enhancements:
- TestComplete now detects whether controls in SAP GUI have dynamic identifiers and generates identification properties that ignore the dynamic parts. This helps make automated tests for SAP GUI more reliable.
- This makes creating automations easier
- Support for SAP GUI version 7.70
In previous TestComplete versions, it was possible to create automations for SAP GUI using only properties and methods that TestComplete provided for all onscreen objects. In this version, TestComplete provides extra methods and properties for the following SAP GUI controls:
- GuiButton
- GuiCheckBox
- GuiTextField
- GuiCTextField
Other improvements:
- Recommended system requirements have been updated. We recommend that you use TestComplete on the 64-bit version of the Windows 10 operating system. We also recommend that you have 16 GB of RAM or more and 1920 × 1080 or higher screen resolution on your TestComplete workstation. See System Requirements.
- TestComplete projects now have a new Repaint window before capturing image option. If the option is enabled (by default), TestComplete will command the system to redraw windows before the test engine captures their image. This can help avoid various window rendering issues and improve the reliability of image comparison in TestComplete.
- We have fixed several issues reported by our customers
Discontinued support:
- Support for some earlier versions of iOS has been removed from TestComplete. Now, it supports only the latest build of version 12 — 12.5.
- If you need support for other iOS 12 versions, please contact our Customer Care team
- The legacy non-Chromium version of Edge has reached the end of life in March 2021. The Windows 10 April 2021 Update replaces it with the new Chromium-based version automatically. Therefore, we are deprecating support for the non-Chromium Edge in TestComplete.
- We won’t run tests for this browser, and we don’t guarantee that your web tests will run in this browser correctly. We won’t provide any bug fixes for it.

What's new in this version:
Run mobile tests in parallel:
- You can increase your mobile testing efficiency by running tests in Appium-based device clouds in parallel. You can orchestrate the parallel test runs directly from your TestComplete tests by using the Parallel.RunMobileTests method. See Running Mobile Tests in Parallel for details.
Changes in cross-platform web tests:
- The Parallel.RunEnvironments method has been replaced with Parallel.RunWebTests. Use it instead to run cross-platform web tests in parallel. RunEnvironments is still supported for backward compatibility.
- The Environments parameter of the new RunWebTests method can take an array of JSON objects rather than an array of strings
- Overall improvements
- We have improved the performance of mobile tests running in environments provided by BitBar and private Appium servers. Now, it takes less time for Test Visualizer to capture screenshots of the tested mobile application that reduces the overall test run time.
- We continue improving our internal algorithms to make tests for SAP GUI applications more stable and reliable
- The Name Mapping repository shows the Extended Find check box only for those objects for which it is relevant, like objects in desktop applications or web objects mapped by properties provided by TestComplete. The check box is hidden for objects to which it is not applicable, for instance, web objects mapped with XPath expressions or CSS selectors.
- Editing of keyword tests has become a bit handier. Now, when you change parameters of keyword-test operations by typing them in the Value cell, the test no longer freezes trying to locate the underlying tested object.
- The popularity of JScript and DelphiScript has been declining rapidly during the last few decades. Starting from this TestComplete version, we no longer recommend that you use these languages to create new tests. These languages are now hidden from the Create New Project wizard by default.
- We’d suggest that you use JavaScript or Python. Basically, it is the way to go when it comes to selecting a scripting language. They are stable, reliable, and you can always reach for any necessary support on them online.
- We don’t remove JScript and DelphiScript, they are still available in TestComplete. All your existing projects that use them will remain intact and fully functional. You can continue using these languages to create new tests, though we do not recommend this. See Selecting the Scripting Language.
- We’ve fixed several issues reported by our customers
Support for recent versions of web browsers:
- Google Chrome 90
- Mozilla Firefox 88

What's new in this version:
Enhanced cloud-compatible mobile testing:
The previous version of TestComplete introduced a new mobile testing approach that makes it possible to create and run mobile tests on devices controlled by cloud providers, like BitBar, or by a local Appium server. Version 14.8 improves this new approach significantly:
- You can now create cloud-compatible mobile tests faster and easier by recording user actions
- You can easily connect to mobile devices from keyword tests by using the new Run Remote Device operation
- You can also connect to mobile devices from the Mobile Screen window or when you start test recording by clicking Record Test on the TestComplete Start Page.
- If you use BitBar-cloud devices, you can specify tested mobile applications when you are creating a new project. This makes it easier to deploy these apps to the device during test runs. See Adding Applications to the List of Tested BitBar Applications.
- All these changes have made the previous mobile testing approach obsolete. You can still use it to run mobile tests on devices connected to the TestComplete computer (via ADB or iTunes). For new tests, we recommend using the new cloud-compatible approach. You can switch between approaches by using the Mobile support type property of your TestComplete project.
Smarter web testing:
- If it is your tested web application that resides behind a proxy or a firewall, see Access Web Applications Behind a Firewall
- Device Cloud add-on is no longer needed for cross-platform tests. We’ve migrated the cross-platform testing functionality from the Device Cloud add-on to the Web module. This makes the add-on unneeded, and we’ve removed it from the TestComplete bundle.
- Easier parallel test runs. We no longer provide TestExecute Lite as a standalone utility. You can run your cross-platform web tests in parallel by using TestComplete and regular TestExecute. To orchestrate parallel runs, use the Parallel object in your tests or use the Execution Plan of your project.
- The TestComplete test adapter for Azure DevOps no longer allows orchestrating parallel runs. You can do it directly from your TestComplete projects.
Better object recognition and object mapping in web applications (for instance, in Salesforce):
- TestComplete uses more descriptive mapping objects for web page elements (date pickers, icons, buttons, and others).
- Also, TestComplete now recognizes and maps combo box items by their contents
- When mapping radio buttons, TestComplete groups buttons that belong to the same radio group.
- Support for proxies in cross-platform web tests. Now, if a TestComplete workstation is running behind a proxy, cross-platform web tests can access the target device cloud correctly. They will use the workstation’s system proxy settings. In previous TestComplete versions, cross-platform web tests can only access the device cloud directly.
New Salesforce Support plugin:
- The new Salesforce API script extension helps you work with Salesforce resources directly from TestComplete tests. The extension provides the Salesforce script object that enables you to perform common operations over Salesforce objects and to send SOQL queries.
- The extension is not part of TestComplete
Overall improvements:
- More flexible BDD tests. The new Stop the entire Scenario Outline if any example fails project property helps you control the behavior of the Scenario Outline run when an error occurs in one of the examples.
- Support for Electron 11. You can create, record, and run automated tests for Electron-based applications created with Electron version 11.0.0
- Improvements in SAP GUI support. We’ve improved internal algorithms to make tests created for SAP GUI applications even more stable
- Support for user-defined parameters in SessionCreator. If you run your tests via the SessionCreator utility, you can now use its new command-line argument /arg to pass the custom parameters to TestComplete.
- Better Execution Plan view. For easier configuration, we’ve put settings that are specific to parallel runs to a special panel in the Execution Plan editor
Support for recent versions of web browsers:
- Google Chrome 89
- Mozilla Firefox 87
The Execution Plan editor:
- Our records say that a sample project that demonstrates how to create tests for Xamarin.Forms applications was rarely used. We have moved it from the product installation to the additional sample package that you can download from our website.
- The TestComplete installer now suggests sending the installation log to the SmartBear Customer Care Team for issues that occur during the product installation.
- We’ve also fixed a number of issues reported by our customers.
