Thanks Tim.
I apologize in advance if this doesnt thread properly; I'm on the digest
list and am not sure how to properly reply to individual messages.
I am now able to launch the application via python win32com however I am
still having an issue. The QuickTest.Application object allows me to run
open test scripts and run as follows:
import win32com.client
o = win32com.client.Dispatch("QuickTest.Application")
o.Launch()
o.Open("V:\tests\mytest")
o.Test.Run(o.Test)
In vbscript, I am able to call the Run method of the Test object without any
parameters and the it appears that "self" is passed implicitly. Calling Run
without any parameters in python yields:
>>>o.Test.Run()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#17>", line 1, in <module>
o.Test.Run()
File "<COMObject <unknown>>", line 3, in Run
TypeError: The Python instance can not be converted to a COM object
Could it be that python is passing the python instance to Run method rather
than the COM instance?
The Run Method documentation is as follows:
*Syntax*
object.Run [ResultsOptions], [WaitOnReturn], [Parameters]
*Syntax Details*
*Argument - Description *
object - An expression evaluating to an object of type Test.
ResultsOptions Optional. - A RunResultsOptions object. If no
RunResultsOptions object is specified, the default value for the
RunResultsOptions object is used (the results are saved in a unique folder
within the test's or component's folder).
WaitOnReturn Optional. - A Boolean value. Indicates whether the Test.Run
statement waits until the end of the of the run before performing the next
statement in the automation script. Default=True.
Note: Set this property to False only if the steps following the Test.Run
statement can be performed even while the test or component is running.
Parameters Optional. - A Parameters object. The Parameters collection
containing the values you want to pass to the test or component.
Return Type
None
